can't compare datetime.datetime to datetime.date

[Rafał Szymański]

Hi again

I wolud like ask another question.

If someone would be so kind and help that will be great.

I'm in the begining of django tutorial.

I use python3.3 and django1.6

I get error:

can't compare datetime.datetime to datetime.date

Here is my code:

import datetime

from django.utils import timezone

from django.db import models

class Poll(models.Model):

    question = models.CharField(max_length=200)

    pub_date = models.DateField('date published')

    def was_published_recently(self):

        return self.pub_date >= timezone.now() - datetime.timedelta(days=1)

    def __str__(self):

        return self.question

class Choice(models.Model):

    poll = models.ForeignKey(Poll)

    choice_text = models.CharField(max_length=200)

    votes = models.IntegerField(default=0)

    def __str__(self):

        return self.choice_text

Thanks in advance

You're comparing pub_date, which is a datetime.date, to timezone.now(), which is a datetime.datetime. Check the docs at http://docs.python.org/2/library/datetime.html for more.

In order to convert timezone.now() to a date, just call timezone.now().date(), like:

In [1]: from django.utils import timezone

In [3]: timezone.now()

Out[3]: datetime.datetime(2014, 1, 27, 14, 42, 29, 408491, tzinfo=<UTC>)

In [4]: timezone.now().date()

Out[4]: datetime.date(2014, 1, 27)
