posix_tz 1.0.2

Posix timezones package. This package is designed to simplify working with timezones, allowing developers to read and write timezones in posix standard.

Posix Tz

This library provides timezones in the standard Posix format. The data is obtained by reading the content of /usr/share/zoneinfo.

Initialization

It's important to initialize the library before reading the timezones.

void main() {
    await initializePosixTz();
}

Usage

// after initialization
final posixTz = db.get("Europe/Rome");
print(posixTz.toString()) // name:Europe/Rome, posix:CET-1CEST,M3.5.0,M10.5.0/3

Other

PosixTz can be compared.

final posixTz1 = posixTzDb.get('Europe/Rome');
final posixTz2 = posixTzDb.get('Europe/Rome');
final posixTz3 = posixTzDb.get('Atlantic/Stanley');
print(posixTz1 == posixTz2); // true
print(posixTz1 == posixTz3); // false

posixTzDb can be expanded.

posixTzDb.add(PosixTz(name: "Ababwa",posix: "<+06>-6"));
