Module tz

Module tz 

Source
Expand description

Access to the C runtime’s tzset / timezone / altzone / daylight / tzname globals used by Python’s time module.

Not available under MSVC (which exposes these only via the _get_tzname-style helpers) or on wasm32 (no libc tz state).

Functions§

altzone
DST offset west of UTC in seconds, matching CPython’s time.altzone.
daylight
timezone
tzname_strings
Snapshot of tzname[0] / tzname[1] as owned Strings. Reads the C globals once and copies the bytes out so callers don’t have to handle the raw pointers themselves.
