So this bug is asking for two things: 1. An official accessor for the `tzinfo` component of an existing datetime, which I think is very reasonable in light of the fact that there are official accessors for all the other components of a datetime. 2. An official constructor for a timezone-aware datetime, which I think basically exists in the form of PyDatetime_CAPI->PyDateTimeAPI->DateTime_FromDateAndTime / ->DateTime_FromDateAndTimeAndFold, and we just need to document it. I think this is basically a separate issue, and I have opened #39604 to track it. I'm going to rename this bug to focus only on issue #1. I think we can accept a PR adding two new macros. I would suggest calling them: - PyDateTime_DATE_GET_TZINFO - PyDateTime_TIME_GET_TZINFO Please make sure to add tests to any PR you make. See the CapiTest case (https://github.com/python/cpython/blob/d68e0a8a165761604e820c8cb4f20abc735e717f/Lib/test/datetimetester.py#L5914) for examples. You may want to look at the git blame for a few of those tests to see the PRs that they were added in, since part of the tests are defined in a C file. (As an aside: I don't love that the accessor methods are not available on the struct, since all the "macro-only" code needs to be re-implemented in all other-language bindings. Since the accessors are already all macro-only, though, might as well keep with the tradition for now :P) ---------- stage: -> needs patch title: Add ability to get/set tzinfo on datetime instances in C API -> Add ability to get tzinfo from a datetime instance in C API versions: +Python 3.9 -Python 3.6 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue30155> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
