change(options) public

Returns a new +ActiveSupport::TimeWithZone+ where one or more of the elements have been changed according to the options parameter. The time options (:hour, :min, :sec, :usec, :nsec) reset cascadingly, so if only the hour is passed, then minute, sec, usec and nsec is set to 0. If the hour and minute is passed, then sec, usec and nsec is set to 0. The options parameter takes a hash with any of these keys: :year, :month, :day, :hour, :min, :sec, :usec, :nsec, :offset, :zone. Pass either :usec or :nsec, not both. Similarly, pass either :zone or :offset, not both.

t = Time.zone.now          # => Fri, 14 Apr 2017 11:45:15 EST -05:00
t.change(year: 2020)       # => Tue, 14 Apr 2020 11:45:15 EST -05:00
t.change(hour: 12)         # => Fri, 14 Apr 2017 12:00:00 EST -05:00
t.change(min: 30)          # => Fri, 14 Apr 2017 11:30:00 EST -05:00
t.change(offset: "-10:00") # => Fri, 14 Apr 2017 11:45:15 HST -10:00
t.change(zone: "Hawaii")   # => Fri, 14 Apr 2017 11:45:15 HST -10:00
