My local time is Asia/Shanghai, But the time from the database is UTC

[Evan]

my local time is Asia/Shanghai
my struct is:

type LogAccess struct {
	Id       string        `json:"id" xorm:"pk"`
	Username string        `json:"username"`
	AccessAt carbon.Carbon `json:"access_at"`
}

use xorm get AccessAt is a UTC time
I changed AccessAt type to time.Time, I get a CST time
What should I do to get a CST time

Thank you. This method is indeed effective.
In fact, I want it to default to using the local time zone.
I think it would be better if it were set to local time by default in database function func (c *Carbon) Scan(v interface{}).
Thank you again.
