Hello,
How can I convert a date, usually datetime.now(), into a format where
the timezone is in hours:minutes format. I was able to get that format
in shell:
$ date +%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%S%:z
2024-06-18T19:24:09-04:00
The closest I got in python is
from datetime import datetime
from zoneinfo import ZoneInfo
s = datetime.strftime(datetime.now(ZoneInfo("America/New_York")),
"%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%S%z")
print(s)
This prints the same as the shell command above except the last column:
2024-06-18T19:28:56-0400
Starting from Python 3.12, you can use "%:z" in the format string. For
earlier versions of Python, you need to do some string slicing.
