Getting Started

Add SwiftTZ to your Package.swift file:

dependencies: [
  .package(url: "https://github.com/vamsii777/SwiftTZ.git", from: "0.2.0")
]

Usage

To use a timezone, create a TimeZone instance using a TimeZoneIdentifier:

import SwiftTZ

let newYork = TimeZone(.americaNewYork)
print(newYork.identifier) // "America/New_York"

TimeZone Initialization

The TimeZone initializer that takes a TimeZoneIdentifier will never fail because the set of identifiers is statically known and known to be valid.

let newYork = TimeZone(.americaNewYork)
print(newYork.identifier) // "America/New_York"

let tokyo = TimeZone(identifier: .asiaTokyo)
print(tokyo.identifier) // "Asia/Tokyo"

let london = TimeZone(.europeLondon)  // "Europe/London"
let identifier = london.timeZoneIdentifier
print(identifier) // "europeLondon"
