How to get timezone from Python C API?

Question

I don't find anything to find the timezone from a PyDateTime_DateTime. I want to get either the offset or the timezone name if possible.

Do you know how to do that ?

Thx

There just isn't any C API accessor for a datetime's time zone. Your best option is to go through ordinary attribute access:

PyObject *tz_or_none = PyObject_GetAttrString(dt, "tzinfo");
