Updating a date field

[Clive Bruton]

I am trying to update an existing date field, however when I do that
I get the following exception:

Exception Type: TypeError
Exception Value: expected string or bytes-like object

The query looks like this:

queryset = Item.edit.filter(**kwargs).update
(expires=set_expires,is_active=True)

and set_expires looks like this:

def set_expires():
return datetime.now(timezone.utc) + timedelta(days=30)

I am using "set_expires" in the model for "Item", to set the initial
value, without issue. Do I have to convert to a string when doing an
update?

Thanks

Apparently the magic is:

queryset = Item.edit.filter(**kwargs).update(expires=set_expires
(),is_active=True)
