Overview

The TimeZone class serves as a wrapper around TZInfo::Timezone instances. It allows us to do the following:

  • Limit the set of zones provided by TZInfo to a meaningful subset of 134 zones.

  • Retrieve and display zones with a friendlier name (e.g., “Eastern Time (US & Canada)” instead of “America/New_York”).

  • Lazily load TZInfo::Timezone instances only when they’re needed.

  • Create ActiveSupport::TimeWithZone instances via TimeZone’s local, parse, at and now methods.

If you set config.time_zone in the Rails Application, you can access this TimeZone object via Time.zone:

# application.rb:
class Application < Rails::Application
  config.time_zone = 'Eastern Time (US & Canada)'
end

Time.zone      # => #<ActiveSupport::TimeZone:0x514834...>
Time.zone.name # => "Eastern Time (US & Canada)"
Time.zone.now  # => Sun, 18 May 2008 14:30:44 EDT -04:00

Constructor Details

#initialize(name, utc_offset = nil, tzinfo = nil) ⇒ TimeZone

Create a new TimeZone object with the given name and offset. The offset is the number of seconds that this time zone is offset from UTC (GMT). Seconds were chosen as the offset unit because that is the unit that Ruby uses to represent time zone offsets (see Time#utc_offset).

Class Method Details

.[](arg) ⇒ Object

Locate a specific time zone object. If the argument is a string, it is interpreted to mean the name of the timezone to locate. If it is a numeric value it is either the hour offset, or the second offset, of the timezone to find. (The first one with that offset will be returned.) Returns nil if no such time zone is known to the system.

Time.zone.iso8601('1999-12-31T14:00:00') # => Fri, 31 Dec 1999 14:00:00 HST -10:00

If the time components are missing then they will be set to zero.

Time.zone = 'Hawaii'            # => "Hawaii"

If the string is invalid then an ArgumentError will be raised unlike parse which usually returns nil when given an invalid date string.

Raises:

  • (ArgumentError)

#now ⇒ Object

Returns an ActiveSupport::TimeWithZone instance representing the current time in the time zone represented by self.

Time.zone = 'Hawaii'  # => "Hawaii"

#parse(str, now = now()) ⇒ Object

Method for creating new ActiveSupport::TimeWithZone instance in time zone of self from parsed string.

Time.zone = 'Hawaii'                   # => "Hawaii"
Time.zone.parse('1999-12-31 14:00:00') # => Fri, 31 Dec 1999 14:00:00 HST -10:00

Time.zone.parse('22:30:00') # => Fri, 31 Dec 1999 22:30:00 HST -10:00

However, if the date component is not provided, but any other upper components are supplied, then the day of the month defaults to 1:

Time.zone.parse('Mar 2000') # => Wed, 01 Mar 2000 00:00:00 HST -10:00

#rfc3339(str) ⇒ Object

Method for creating new ActiveSupport::TimeWithZone instance in time zone of self from an RFC 3339 string.

Time.zone = 'Hawaii'                     # => "Hawaii"
Time.zone.rfc3339('2000-01-01T00:00:00Z') # => Fri, 31 Dec 1999 14:00:00 HST -10:00

If the time or zone components are missing then an ArgumentError will be raised. This is much stricter than either parse or iso8601 which allow for missing components.

Time.zone = 'Hawaii'            # => "Hawaii"

#strptime(str, format, now = now()) ⇒ Object

Parses str according to format and returns an ActiveSupport::TimeWithZone.

Assumes that str is a time in the time zone self, unless format includes an explicit time zone. (This is the same behavior as parse.) In either case, the returned TimeWithZone has the timezone of self.

Time.zone = 'Hawaii'                   # => "Hawaii"
Time.zone.strptime('1999-12-31 14:00:00', '%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S') # => Fri, 31 Dec 1999 14:00:00 HST -10:00

If upper components are missing from the string, they are supplied from TimeZone#now:

Time.zone.now                              # => Fri, 31 Dec 1999 14:00:00 HST -10:00

However, if the date component is not provided, but any other upper components are supplied, then the day of the month defaults to 1:

#utc_to_local(time) ⇒ Object

Adjust the given time to the simultaneous time in the time zone represented by self. Returns a local time with the appropriate offset – if you want an ActiveSupport::TimeWithZone instance, use Time#in_time_zone() instead.

As of tzinfo 2, utc_to_local returns a Time with a non-zero utc_offset. See the ‘utc_to_local_returns_utc_offset_times` config for more info.
