Arrow locale not working

Question

arrow.get(datetime.now(), 'Asia/Shanghai').date()

Returns datetime.date(2017, 3, 26) but it is 27th March there. How do I fix this?

Answer 1

Documentation gives example over starting with utc then applying the timezone. For your case:

import arrow
utc = arrow.utcnow()
utc.to('Asia/Shanghai').date()

should give you the local date you are looking for.
