I know this question has discussed not for the first time but I stuck with a problem and confused a little.
So I have a celery task that should send reminders in time.
In my config:
USE_TZ = True
TIMEZONE = 'Asia/Singapore'
for example I have a model like:
class Reminder(models.Model):
created = models.DateTimeField(default=timezone.now)
This is a simplified model it has more fields but problem laying inside DateTime fields.
So then I open django shell and get time like:
timezone.now()
reminder.created
It shows right time in UTC like:
datetime.datetime(2016, 12, 22, 8, 47, 43, 370101, tzinfo=<UTC>) #tz now
datetime.datetime(2016, 12, 22, 8, 47, 43, 370101, tzinfo=<UTC>) #reminder created
But if I run the task from console and set up prints or trying debug with ipdb I got for time above:
2016-12-22 09:17:19.141242+00:00 # tz now
2016-12-22 16:52:43.366542+00:00 # reminder time CONVERT UTC+8 like Singapore but it became UTC now!!!
So, I can't understand how it's going. And of course I can't compare datetimes correctly in this case.
