pytz

Use pytz to generate TZ raw environment variable

Asked by Mike Crowe

Hi folks,

I'm trying to find a way to go from a region, such as "America/Mexico_City", to the raw TZ environment variable (for an embedded system), such as "CST6CDT,M4.1.0/2,M10.5.0/2.

Any chance I can do this somehow with pytz?

TIA
Mike

I don't think so. pytz only deals with the compiled zoneinfo files, and information like 'First Sunday or October' is lost during compilation.

Can you help with this problem?
