Module Zone

module Zone: Zone

exception Unknown_zone of string

type t

include Stringable

val find : string -> t option

find name looks up a t by its name and returns it.

val find_office : [ `chi | `hkg | `ldn | `nyc ] -> t

find_office office a more type-safe interface for pulling timezones related to existing Jane Street offices/locations.

val find_exn : string -> t

val machine_zone : ?refresh:bool -> unit -> t

machine_zone ?refresh () returns the machines zone (t). It does this by first looking for a value in the environment variable "TZ", and loading the named zone if it is set. If "TZ" is not set it reads /etc/localtime directly.

The first call to machine_zone is cached, so there is no need to cache it locally. The cache can be bypassed and refreshed by setting ~refresh to true.

Note that this function can throw an exception if the TZ time variable is misconfigured or if the appropriate timezone files can't be found because of the way the box is configured. We don't put an _exn on this function because that misconfiguration is quite rare.

val likely_machine_zones : string list Pervasives.ref

likely_machine_zones is a list of zone names that will be searched first when trying to determine the machine zone of a box. Setting this to a likely set of zones for your application will speed the very first call to machine_zone

val of_utc_offset : hours:int -> t

of_utc_offset offset returns a timezone with a static UTC offset (given in hours).

val default_utc_offset_deprecated : t -> int

default_utc_offset returns the UTC offset of default regime for timezone t in seconds. Note: the default utc offset may not reflect the current utc offset.

val utc : t

utc the UTC time zone. Included for convenience

val abbreviation : t -> float -> string

abbreviation zone t returns t abbreviation name such as EDT, EST, JST of given zone at the time t. This string conversion is one-way only, and cannot reliably be turned back into a t

val name : t -> string

name zone returns the name of the time zone

val init : unit -> unit

init () pre-load all available time zones from disk, this function has no effect if it is called multiple times. Time zones will otherwise be loaded at need from the disk on the first call to find/find_exn.

val digest : t -> string option

digest t return the MD5 digest of the file the t was created from (if any)

val initialized_zones : unit -> (string * t) list

initialized_zones () returns a sorted list of time zone names that have been loaded from disk thus far.

val shift_epoch_time : t -> [ `Local | `UTC ] -> float -> float

val pp : Format.formatter -> t -> unit
