I'm writing a lambda function that works with datetimes and trying to import pytz so I can have timezone be accounted for when comparing.
import boto3
import pytz
from datetime import timedelta, date, datetime
from boto3.dynamodb.conditions import Key, Attr
causes this to display
{errorMessage=Unable to import module 'lambda_function'}
but when I remove import pytz the function fires (it just doesn't work properly without timezone info)
If you don't have access to pytz
in your environment, maybe you have access to python-dateutil
. In that case you can do:
import datetime
import dateutil.tz
eastern = dateutil.tz.gettz('US/Eastern')
datetime.datetime.now(tz=eastern)
REF. How to get current time in Pacific Timezone when import pytz fails?
