zoneinfo --- IANA time zone support

バージョン 3.9 で追加.

ソースコード: Lib/zoneinfo

The zoneinfo module provides a concrete time zone implementation to support the IANA time zone database as originally specified in PEP 615. By default, zoneinfo uses the system's time zone data if available; if no system time zone data is available, the library will fall back to using the first-party tzdata package available on PyPI.

ZoneInfo を使用する

ZoneInfo は datetime.tzinfo 抽象基底クラスの具体的な実装であり、tzinfo に指定することを想定しています。コンストラクタ、datetime.replace メソッド、datetime.astimezone メソッドのいずれかで指定します。

>>> from zoneinfo import ZoneInfo
>>> from datetime import datetime, timedelta

>>> dt = datetime(2020, 10, 31, 12, tzinfo=ZoneInfo("America/Los_Angeles"))
>>> print(dt)
2020-10-31 12:00:00-07:00

>>> dt.tzname()
'PDT'

Datetimes constructed in this way are compatible with datetime arithmetic and handle daylight saving time transitions with no further intervention:

>>> dt_add = dt + timedelta(days=1)

>>> print(dt_add)
2020-11-01 12:00:00-08:00

>>> dt_add.tzname()
'PST'

These time zones also support the fold attribute introduced in PEP 495. During offset transitions which induce ambiguous times (such as a daylight saving time to standard time transition), the offset from before the transition is used when fold=0, and the offset after the transition is used when fold=1, for example:

>>> dt = datetime(2020, 11, 1, 1, tzinfo=ZoneInfo("America/Los_Angeles"))
>>> print(dt)
2020-11-01 01:00:00-07:00

>>> print(dt.replace(fold=1))
2020-11-01 01:00:00-08:00

When converting from another time zone, the fold will be set to the correct value:

>>> from datetime import timezone
>>> LOS_ANGELES = ZoneInfo("America/Los_Angeles")
>>> dt_utc = datetime(2020, 11, 1, 8, tzinfo=timezone.utc)

>>> # Before the PDT -> PST transition
>>> print(dt_utc.astimezone(LOS_ANGELES))
2020-11-01 01:00:00-07:00

>>> # After the PDT -> PST transition
>>> print((dt_utc + timedelta(hours=1)).astimezone(LOS_ANGELES))
2020-11-01 01:00:00-08:00

データソース

The zoneinfo module does not directly provide time zone data, and instead pulls time zone information from the system time zone database or the first-party PyPI package tzdata, if available. Some systems, including notably Windows systems, do not have an IANA database available, and so for projects targeting cross-platform compatibility that require time zone data, it is recommended to declare a dependency on tzdata. If neither system data nor tzdata are available, all calls to ZoneInfo will raise ZoneInfoNotFoundError.

Configuring the data sources

When ZoneInfo(key) is called, the constructor first searches the directories specified in TZPATH for a file matching key, and on failure looks for a match in the tzdata package. This behavior can be configured in three ways:

  1. The default TZPATH when not otherwise specified can be configured at compile time.

  2. TZPATH can be configured using an environment variable.

  3. At runtime, the search path can be manipulated using the reset_tzpath() function.

Compile-time configuration

The default TZPATH includes several common deployment locations for the time zone database (except on Windows, where there are no "well-known" locations for time zone data). On POSIX systems, downstream distributors and those building Python from source who know where their system time zone data is deployed may change the default time zone path by specifying the compile-time option TZPATH (or, more likely, the configure flag --with-tzpath), which should be a string delimited by os.pathsep.

On all platforms, the configured value is available as the TZPATH key in sysconfig.get_config_var().

Environment configuration

When initializing TZPATH (either at import time or whenever reset_tzpath() is called with no arguments), the zoneinfo module will use the environment variable PYTHONTZPATH, if it exists, to set the search path.

PYTHONTZPATH

This is an os.pathsep-separated string containing the time zone search path to use. It must consist of only absolute rather than relative paths. Relative components specified in PYTHONTZPATH will not be used, but otherwise the behavior when a relative path is specified is implementation-defined; CPython will raise InvalidTZPathWarning, but other implementations are free to silently ignore the erroneous component or raise an exception.

To set the system to ignore the system data and use the tzdata package instead, set PYTHONTZPATH="".

Runtime configuration

The TZ search path can also be configured at runtime using the reset_tzpath() function. This is generally not an advisable operation, though it is reasonable to use it in test functions that require the use of a specific time zone path (or require disabling access to the system time zones).

ZoneInfo クラス

class zoneinfo.ZoneInfo(key)

文字列 key でIANAタイムゾーンを指定した、具体的な datetime.tzinfo のサブクラス。Calls to the primary constructor will always return objects that compare identically; put another way, barring cache invalidation via ZoneInfo.clear_cache(), for all values of key, the following assertion will always be true:

a = ZoneInfo(key)
b = ZoneInfo(key)
assert a is b

key must be in the form of a relative, normalized POSIX path, with no up-level references. The constructor will raise ValueError if a non-conforming key is passed.

key に一致するファイルが見つからない場合、コンストラクタは ZoneInfoNotFoundError を送出します。

ZoneInfo クラスには2つの別のコンストラクターがあります:

classmethod ZoneInfo.from_file(fobj, /, key=None)

file-like オブジェクトが返すbytes（バイナリーモードで開いたファイルや io.BytesIO オブジェクト）から ZoneInfo オブジェクトを構築します。一次コンストラクタと異なり、常に新規オブジェクトを構築します。

The key parameter sets the name of the zone for the purposes of __str__() and __repr__().

このコンストラクタで生成したオブジェクトはpickle化できません（pickling を参照）。

classmethod ZoneInfo.no_cache(key)

An alternate constructor that bypasses the constructor's cache. It is identical to the primary constructor, but returns a new object on each call. This is most likely to be useful for testing or demonstration purposes, but it can also be used to create a system with a different cache invalidation strategy.

Objects created via this constructor will also bypass the cache of a deserializing process when unpickled.

注意

Using this constructor may change the semantics of your datetimes in surprising ways, only use it if you know that you need to.

次のクラスメソッドもサポートされています:

classmethod ZoneInfo.clear_cache(*, only_keys=None)

A method for invalidating the cache on the ZoneInfo class. If no arguments are passed, all caches are invalidated and the next call to the primary constructor for each key will return a new instance.

If an iterable of key names is passed to the only_keys parameter, only the specified keys will be removed from the cache. Keys passed to only_keys but not found in the cache are ignored.

警告

Invoking this function may change the semantics of datetimes using ZoneInfo in surprising ways; this modifies process-wide global state and thus may have wide-ranging effects. Only use it if you know that you need to.

The class has one attribute:

ZoneInfo.key

This is a read-only attribute that returns the value of key passed to the constructor, which should be a lookup key in the IANA time zone database (e.g. America/New_York, Europe/Paris or Asia/Tokyo).

For zones constructed from file without specifying a key parameter, this will be set to None.

注釈

Although it is a somewhat common practice to expose these to end users, these values are designed to be primary keys for representing the relevant zones and not necessarily user-facing elements. Projects like CLDR (the Unicode Common Locale Data Repository) can be used to get more user-friendly strings from these keys.

文字列表現

The string representation returned when calling str on a ZoneInfo object defaults to using the ZoneInfo.key attribute (see the note on usage in the attribute documentation):

>>> zone = ZoneInfo("Pacific/Kwajalein")
>>> str(zone)
'Pacific/Kwajalein'

>>> dt = datetime(2020, 4, 1, 3, 15, tzinfo=zone)
>>> f"{dt.isoformat()} [{dt.tzinfo}]"
'2020-04-01T03:15:00+12:00 [Pacific/Kwajalein]'

For objects constructed from a file without specifying a key parameter, str falls back to calling repr(). ZoneInfo's repr is implementation-defined and not necessarily stable between versions, but it is guaranteed not to be a valid ZoneInfo key.

Pickle serialization

Rather than serializing all transition data, ZoneInfo objects are serialized by key, and ZoneInfo objects constructed from files (even those with a value for key specified) cannot be pickled.

The behavior of a ZoneInfo file depends on how it was constructed:

  1. ZoneInfo(key): When constructed with the primary constructor, a ZoneInfo object is serialized by key, and when deserialized, the deserializing process uses the primary and thus it is expected that these are expected to be the same object as other references to the same time zone. For example, if europe_berlin_pkl is a string containing a pickle constructed from ZoneInfo("Europe/Berlin"), one would expect the following behavior:

    >>> a = ZoneInfo("Europe/Berlin")
>>> b = pickle.loads(europe_berlin_pkl)
>>> a is b
True

  2. ZoneInfo.no_cache(key): When constructed from the cache-bypassing constructor, the ZoneInfo object is also serialized by key, but when deserialized, the deserializing process uses the cache bypassing constructor. If europe_berlin_pkl_nc is a string containing a pickle constructed from ZoneInfo.no_cache("Europe/Berlin"), one would expect the following behavior:

    >>> a = ZoneInfo("Europe/Berlin")
>>> b = pickle.loads(europe_berlin_pkl_nc)
>>> a is b
False

  3. ZoneInfo.from_file(fobj, /, key=None): When constructed from a file, the ZoneInfo object raises an exception on pickling. If an end user wants to pickle a ZoneInfo constructed from a file, it is recommended that they use a wrapper type or a custom serialization function: either serializing by key or storing the contents of the file object and serializing that.

This method of serialization requires that the time zone data for the required key be available on both the serializing and deserializing side, similar to the way that references to classes and functions are expected to exist in both the serializing and deserializing environments. It also means that no guarantees are made about the consistency of results when unpickling a ZoneInfo pickled in an environment with a different version of the time zone data.

関数

zoneinfo.available_timezones()

Get a set containing all the valid keys for IANA time zones available anywhere on the time zone path. This is recalculated on every call to the function.

This function only includes canonical zone names and does not include "special" zones such as those under the posix/ and right/ directories, or the posixrules zone.

注意

This function may open a large number of files, as the best way to determine if a file on the time zone path is a valid time zone is to read the "magic string" at the beginning.

注釈

These values are not designed to be exposed to end-users; for user facing elements, applications should use something like CLDR (the Unicode Common Locale Data Repository) to get more user-friendly strings. See also the cautionary note on ZoneInfo.key.

zoneinfo.reset_tzpath(to=None)

Sets or resets the time zone search path (TZPATH) for the module. When called with no arguments, TZPATH is set to the default value.

Calling reset_tzpath will not invalidate the ZoneInfo cache, and so calls to the primary ZoneInfo constructor will only use the new TZPATH in the case of a cache miss.

The to parameter must be a sequence of strings or os.PathLike and not a string, all of which must be absolute paths. ValueError will be raised if something other than an absolute path is passed.

Globals

zoneinfo.TZPATH

A read-only sequence representing the time zone search path -- when constructing a ZoneInfo from a key, the key is joined to each entry in the TZPATH, and the first file found is used.

TZPATH may contain only absolute paths, never relative paths, regardless of how it is configured.

The object that zoneinfo.TZPATH points to may change in response to a call to reset_tzpath(), so it is recommended to use zoneinfo.TZPATH rather than importing TZPATH from zoneinfo or assigning a long-lived variable to zoneinfo.TZPATH.

For more information on configuring the time zone search path, see Configuring the data sources.

例外と警告

exception zoneinfo.ZoneInfoNotFoundError

Raised when construction of a ZoneInfo object fails because the specified key could not be found on the system. This is a subclass of KeyError.

exception zoneinfo.InvalidTZPathWarning

Raised when PYTHONTZPATH contains an invalid component that will be filtered out, such as a relative path.
