[FIXED] Django date YYYY-MM-DD

Issue

I get date in format(YYYY-MM-DD)

Then I want to add timedelta

    mydate + timedelta(days=1)

and I get error

    coercing to Unicode: need string or buffer, datetime.timedelta found

Solution

mydate is a string. Try doing this:

from datetime import datetime
parsed_date = datetime.strptime(mydate, "%Y-%m-%d")

new_date = parsed_date + timedelta(days=1)
