[sqlalchemy] Timezone handling with postgres

2010-01-29 Thread Wichert Akkerman
Postgres can handle timezones fairly well. Using a direct select you can see how it handles daylight saving correctly: test=# select '2010-01-15 12:30 Europe/Amsterdam'::timestamp with time zone, '2010-01-15 12:30 Europe/Amsterdam'::timestamp with time zone + interval '7 months'
