How to get list of all timezones in javascript

问题

I am developing an application with react/redux, and I started using library react-intl for formatting messages and dates.

I have already been able to show in a <FormattedDate> tag what timezone it's using.

I would like to have in a select all the possible timezones existing, so when the user picks one timezone, the <FormattedDate> changes to that format automatically.

I don't find how to list all posible timezones with react-intl.

I have also searched in google, and I did not find any built-in javascript function that does that.

Is it that way? How can I obtain that list?

Note: Don't think its the same question, since I don't want to use external libraries, if possible, if its the only solution then I will have to handle that way... :/

回答1:

I recently created an array containing all timezones and found that a couple of official timezones were missing from Chromium 71.0.3578.98.

You can see that array in this comment of the bug I reported. For convenience, I've included the array below:

If you're like me, in wondering why there are so many timezones, check out this question.

回答2:

For the future searchers, it's possible to get a list of all timezones using moment-timezone.

import momentTZ from 'moment-timezone';

const defaultTimeZone = momentTZ.tz.guess();
const timeZonesList = momentTZ.tz.names();

回答3:

The react-intl library's time zone functionality is provided exclusively by the ECMAScript Internationalization API features that are integrated into the browser.

While IANA time zone support is part of this spec, it currently only covers two scenarios:

Formating a Date object to a string, converting to a specific time zone in the process.
Determining the user's local time zone identifier.

Unfortunately, there is no function defined by the spec for enumerating the list of available time zones.

Additionally, note that support for the two functions it does have is currently limited to a handful of browsers. It will likely be quite some time before these capabilities can be depended upon. The ECMAScript Compatibility Table shows which browsers are supported. Under DateTimeFormat you'll find "resolvedOptions().timeZone defaults to the host environment" and "accepts IANA timezone names" that track these features.

回答4:

I realize my answer is late, but if you are using Intl and you care about time zones, and you're facing the web, then you are almost certainly going to need https://github.com/yahoo/date-time-format-timezone. Since you will have this in your project anyway, you can retrieve the time zone data from inside the polyfill even if you're not using the polyfill.

Everyone is using the IANA database so you should get consistent results.
