How to set the timezone in Django?
Here is the list of valid timezones:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_tz_database_time_zones
You can use
TIME_ZONE = 'Europe/Istanbul'
for UTC+02:00
To get a set of all valid timezone names (ids) from the tz database, you could use pytz
module in Python:
>>> import pytz # $ pip install pytz>>> pytz.all_timezones_setLazySet({'Africa/Abidjan', 'Africa/Accra', 'Africa/Addis_Ababa', 'Africa/Algiers', 'Africa/Asmara', 'Africa/Asmera', ... 'UTC', 'Universal', 'W-SU', 'WET', 'Zulu'})
Choose a valid timezone from the tzinfo database. They tend to take the form e.g. Africa/Gaborne
and US/Eastern
Find the one which matches the city nearest you, or the one which has your timezone, then set your value of TIME_ZONE
to match.
