By the way, the database driver that I'm using is SQLite, which doesn't support native timestamp I believe.

    I'm using two columns to store my datetime records: one column
    stores utc timestamp as a string, the other column stores a

    writing ad hoc functions to convert those UTC times to various
    local times. My code base has become really inconsistent and
    repetitive.

    I'm looking to write some code with sqlalchemy, natively
    sqlalchemy, to allow me to get the converted local time on each
    query, automatically. I've heard of that feature before.
    I'm kind of lost in the documentation. Could someone point a
    general direction here? I don't expect too much, just a general
    direction would be highly appreciated. Thanks a lot.

there are multiple documented techniques for this kind of thing. Have you looked into composite attributes or hybrid properties ? Both can suit this use case.
