Timezone handling
Closed this issue · 1 comments
I might be blind, but I don't see anything in the documentation specifying any sort of guarantee on timezone parsing. From the examples it looks like it always returns GMT time...
The struct_time object it spits out for the various datetime fields doesn't have the tm_zone or tm_gmtoff attributes on my system.
Can I assume that the time it provides is always in GMT? What if the feed doesn't provide a timezone...will it just be assumed as GMT?
Yes, feedparser's returns UTC datetime tuples, but I'll make sure this is documented.
If no datetime is provided feedparser will assume UTC but if you encounter a situation where this is not the case don't hesitate to open a ticket! =)
I'll close this only after confirming the UTC normalization is documented.
