This Package is No Longer Maintained

Please consider using https://github.com/MrFuppes/whenareyou instead!

whenareyou

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'
