Hello

During checkout of a user I plan to use the local-time of the logged-in user for validation of a field. Now I have the problem, that I cannot get the local-time of the user. I only get the server-time in UTC. To display the users time I tried it like that in qweb-report:

<span t-esc="datetime.datetime.now().astimezone()"/>

Can someone help how to convert the time displayed to users local time or just convert it from UTC to CET?

Thanks

René

We can determine user location in 2 ways.


1. user IP address to determine user timezone and other info using ipinfo.


$ curl https://ipinfo.io/27.116.51.143


{

"ip": "27.116.51.143",

"city": "Gandhinagar",

"region": "Gujarat",

"country": "IN",

"loc": "23.2167,72.6833",

"org": "AS45916 Gujarat Telelink Pvt Ltd",

"postal": "382042",

"timezone": "Asia/Kolkata",

"readme": "https://ipinfo.io/missingauth"

}


2. Find timezone using the GeoIP package. This package you can install on your server. If you want to know how to install you can refer https://kanakinfosystems.com/blog/how-to-show-geolocation-based-pricelist post.


Python:

print('GeoIP Info_____', request.session.get('geoip'))


Result:

{

'city': 'Gandhinagar',

'country_code': 'IN',

'country_name': 'India',

'region': 'GJ',

'time_zone': 'Asia/Kolkata'

}
