Arrow locale not working


arrow.get(datetime.now(), 'Asia/Shanghai').date()

Returns datetime.date(2017, 3, 26) but it is 27th March there. How do I fix this?


Solution

  • Documentation gives example over starting with utc then applying the timezone. For your case:

    import arrow
    utc = arrow.utcnow()
    utc.to('Asia/Shanghai').date()
    

    should give you the local date you are looking for.
