- What's this?
in_time_zone(zone = ::Time.zone)
public
Returns the simultaneous time in Time.zone.
Time.zone = 'Hawaii' # => 'Hawaii' DateTime.new(2000).in_time_zone # => Fri, 31 Dec 1999 14:00:00 HST -10:00
This method is similar to Time#localtime, except that it uses Time.zone as the local zone instead of the operating system’s time zone.
You can also pass in a TimeZone instance or string that identifies a TimeZone as an argument, and the conversion will be based on that zone instead of Time.zone.
DateTime.new(2000).in_time_zone('Alaska') # => Fri, 31 Dec 1999 15:00:00 AKST -09:00
