This replaces the timezone, such that the "datetime" expressed is now in this new timezone rather than the old one.
When a datetime that does not know about a timezone gains the ability to reason about timezones, calling
isoformat( )
on the object will result in the similar behavior as javascript'sdt.toISOString( )
: the date will be rendered as iso 8601, in Zulu/UTC timezone, with the hours shifted from the local timezone appropriately. The inverse happens with parsing a zone-aware iso8601 string: the parser determines the difference between your local time and the described zone, and produces the correct wall-time as a result. By default, printing it out again will shift it back to the "canonical" Zulu/UTC zone-aware representation. While the tools heavily prefer UTC/Zulu time, it can be useful to print iso8601 date strings with the local time correctly described locally.The following
dt.astimezone
line, in contrast, "shifts" the hours from timezone A to timezone B appropriately while pinning the behavior ofisoformat( )
to produce an iso8601 format in the new timezone (not Zulu/UTC). This can be useful in printing a valid zone-aware 8601 string in the local time, given a valid is8601 datetime that is already (correctly) zone aware in another zone, or missing a zone altogether.These two behaviors can be invoked by the tool independently, to control whether or not to shift times vs simply printing them in local time vs UTC time.
