在 Rails 中将 Time 从一个时区转换为另一个时区

我的 created_at时间戳以 UTC 格式存储:

>> Annotation.last.created_at
=> Sat, 29 Aug 2009 23:30:09 UTC +00:00

如何将其中一个转换为“东部时间(美国和加拿大)”(考虑到夏时制) ? 比如:

Annotation.last.created_at.in_eastern_time

Use the in_time_zone method of the DateTime class

Loading development environment (Rails 2.3.2)
>> now = DateTime.now.utc
=> Sun, 06 Sep 2009 22:27:45 +0000
>> now.in_time_zone('Eastern Time (US & Canada)')
=> Sun, 06 Sep 2009 18:27:45 EDT -04:00
>> quit

So for your particular example

Annotation.last.created_at.in_time_zone('Eastern Time (US & Canada)')

Set your timezone to Eastern Time.

You can set your default timezone in config/environment.rb

config.time_zone = "Eastern Time (US & Canada)"

Now all records you pull out will be in that time zone. If you need different time zones, say based on a user timezone you can change it with a before_filter in your controller.

class ApplicationController < ActionController::Base


before_filter :set_timezone


def set_timezone
Time.zone = current_user.time_zone
end
end

Just make sure you are storing all your times in the database as UTC and everything will be sweet.

If you add this to your /config/application.rb

config.time_zone = 'Eastern Time (US & Canada)'

Then you can cell

Annotation.last.created_at.in_time_zone

to get the time in the specified time zone.

Although this is an old question, it's worth mentioning something. In a previous reply it's suggested to use a before_filter to set the timezone temporally.

You should never, ever do that because Time.zone stores the information in the thread, and it will probably leak to the next request handled by that thread.

Instead you should use an around_filter to make sure that the Time.zone is reset after the request is complete. Something like:

around_filter :set_time_zone


private


def set_time_zone
old_time_zone = Time.zone
Time.zone = current_user.time_zone if logged_in?
yield
ensure
Time.zone = old_time_zone
end

If you configure your /config/application.rb

config.time_zone = 'Eastern Time (US & Canada)'


Time.now.in_time_zone


DateTime.now.in_time_zone

I used this method to parse a datetime string into a timezone, then convert it to another timezone

datetime = "2021-01-14 05:30"


datetime_in_ET = ActiveSupport::TimeZone['Eastern Time (US & Canada)'].parse(datetime)
#=> Thu, 14 Jan 2021 05:30:00 EST -05:00


datetime_in_ET.in_time_zone("Australia/Melbourne")
# => Thu, 14 Jan 2021 21:30:00 AEDT +11:00

For reference: here are the available timezone strings:
