Answers for "django date now"

django get current date

from django.utils import timzone 
This enables you to have a timestamp on any model if you create a 
DateTimeField.

For the date, you can use datetime.date.today() or datetime.datetime.now().date().

For the time, you can use datetime.datetime.now().time().

However, why have separate fields for these in the first place? 
Why not use a single DateTimeField? in Models

You can always define helper functions on the model that return the 
.date() or .time() later if you only want one or the other.

django datetimefield default

date = models.DateTimeField(auto_now_add=True, blank=True)
