Timezone on XMLRPC

Question

Hello,
I'm creating a script that makes XMLRPC queries on the POS orders (using search_read ), and I need to retrieve the date and time the orders were created. However the query is bringing the datetimes in UTC. Is there a way to request them in a specific timezone?

Hi Hugo,
You Can't but you can convert it by using following code
import pytz
local = pytz.timezone(self.env.user.tz)
naive = datetime.datetime.strptime(Your UTC Time, "%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S")
local_dt = local.localize(naive, is_dst=None)
utc_dt = local_dt.astimezone(pytz.utc)
print(utc_dt.strftime("%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S"))
Thanks

use can use context_timestamp to convert datetime to user timezone like
meet_date = fields.Datetime.from_string(self.meeting_date)
meeting_usertime = fields.Datetime.to_string(fields.Datetime.context_timestamp(self, meet_date))
