This Package is No Longer Maintained ==========
Please consider using https://github.com/MrFuppes/whenareyou instead!
Gets the timezone of any location in the world.
This uses google and caches the results so that you can hopefully stay outside the free rate limit (which I have no idea how high it is).
This is how you use it:
$ pip install whenareyou
$ ipython
In [1]: from whenareyou import whenareyou
In [2]: tz = whenareyou('Hamburg')
In [3]: tz
Out[3]: <DstTzInfo 'Europe/Berlin' LMT+0:53:00 STD>
In [4]: from datetime import datetime
In [5]: tz.localize(datetime(2002, 10, 27, 6, 0, 0))
Out[5]: datetime.datetime(2002, 10, 27, 6, 0, tzinfo=<DstTzInfo 'Europe/Berlin' CET+1:00:00 STD>)
In [6]: tz.localize(datetime(2002, 10, 27, 6, 0, 0)).isoformat()
Out[6]: '2002-10-27T06:00:00+01:00'Please note that I've been founding some companies since starting this project and I don't have enough time to work on it. If you'd like to take over maintenance of this project or you need small contributions to be reviewed, please contact me at lasse@viper.dev .
