A version of http://djangosnippets.org/snippets/2388/ which assumes UTC-based dates.
This is when you store dates in UTC (as you should), and want to display them in your site's local timezone, and you notice that Django's timesince/time template tags still do not support timezones.
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 | from django import template
from django.conf import settings
import pytz
register = template.Library()
@register.filter
def astimezone(date, destination=None):
if not destination:
destination = settings.TIME_ZONE
if date.tzinfo:
return date.astimezone(pytz.timezone(destination))
else:
return pytz.timezone('UTC').localize(date).astimezone(pytz.timezone(destination))
