I have a timezone aware timestamptz field in PostgreSQL. When I pull data from the table, I then want to subtract the time right now so I can get it’s age.
The problem I’m having is that both datetime.datetime.now() and datetime.datetime.utcnow() seem to return timezone unaware timestamps, which results in me getting this error:
TypeError: can't subtract offset-naive and offset-aware datetimes
Is there a way to avoid this (preferably without a third-party module being used).
EDIT: Thanks for the suggestions, however trying to adjust the timezone seems to give me errors.. so I’m just going to use timezone unaware timestamps in PG and always insert using:
NOW() AT TIME ZONE 'UTC'
That way all my timestamps are UTC by default (even though it’s more annoying to do this).
