ambitiondjangotimezonefield 2.0.4

A Django app providing database and form fields for pytz timezone objects.

Examples

Database Field
import pytz
from django.db import models
from timezone_field import TimeZoneField

class MyModel(models.Model):
timezone1 = TimeZoneField(default='Europe/London') # defaults supported
timezone2 = TimeZoneField()
timezone3 = TimeZoneField()

my_inst = MyModel(
timezone1='America/Los_Angeles', # assignment of a string
timezone2=pytz.timezone('Turkey'), # assignment of a pytz.DstTzInfo
timezone3=pytz.UTC, # assignment of pytz.UTC singleton
)
my_inst.full_clean() # validates against pytz.common_timezones
my_inst.save() # values stored in DB as strings

tz = my_inst.timezone1 # values retrieved as pytz objects
repr(tz) # "<DstTzInfo 'America/Los_Angeles' PST-1 day, 16:00:00 STD>"


Form Field
from django import forms
from timezone_field import TimeZoneFormField

class MyForm(forms.Form):
timezone = TimeZoneFormField()

my_form = MyForm({
'timezone': 'America/Los_Angeles',
})
my_form.full_clean() # validates against pytz.common_timezones

tz = my_form.cleaned_data['timezone'] # values retrieved as pytz objects
repr(tz) # "<DstTzInfo 'America/Los_Angeles' PST-1 day, 16:00:00 STD>"

Changelog

2.0 (2016-01-31)

Drop support for django 1.7, add support for django 1.9
Drop support for python 3.2, 3.3, add support for python 3.5
Remove tests from source distribution


1.3 (2015-10-12)

Drop support for django 1.6, add support for django 1.8
Various bug fixes


1.2 (2015-02-05)

For form field, changed default list of accepted timezones from
pytz.all_timezones to pytz.common_timezones, to match DB field
behavior.


1.1 (2014-10-05)

Django 1.7 compatibility
Added support for formating choices kwarg as [[<str>, <str>], …],
in addition to previous format of [[<pytz.timezone>, <str>], …].
Changed default list of accepted timezones from pytz.all_timezones to
pytz.common_timezones. If you have timezones in your DB that are in
pytz.all_timezones but not in pytz.common_timezones, this is a
backward-incompatible change. Old behavior can be restored by
specifying choices=[(tz, tz) for tz in pytz.all_timezones] in your
model definition.


1.0 (2013-08-04)

Initial release as timezone_field.
