ENH: Explicitly opt out of pytz support #60025

Open davetapley opened 2 weeks ago

davetapley commented 2 weeks ago

Feature Type

Problem Description

I wish I could explicitly opt out of using pytz with pandas, even if another library (APScheduler in my case) uses it as a dependency.

APScheduler is due to also drop pytz requirement in future, but I'd like to get ahead now.

Feature Description

Patch here to

https://github.com/pandas-dev/pandas/blob/2a10e04a099d5f1633abcdfbb2dd9fdf09142f8d/pandas/_libs/tslibs/timezones.pyx#L25

Thanks for the request. From

https://pandas.pydata.org/docs/dev/whatsnew/v3.0.0.html#pytz-now-an-optional-dependency

it is my understanding that in 3.0 you should not be getting pytz objects unless you are explicitly using them. So I'm not sure what it'd mean to "explicitly opt out of pytz". Can you clarify?
