expressjsHow do I set the time zone in Express.js?
To set the time zone in Express.js, you can use the moment-timezone library. Here is an example of how to set the time zone:
// Require the moment-timezone library
const moment = require('moment-timezone');
// Set the timezone to America/New_York
moment.tz.setDefault('America/New_York');
// Get the current time in the set timezone
let currTime = moment().format('h:mm a');
// Output: 8:20 pm
console.log(currTime);
In the example code above:
- The
require('moment-timezone')
statement imports the moment-timezone library into the application. - The
moment.tz.setDefault('America/New_York')
statement sets the default timezone to America/New_York. - The
moment().format('h:mm a')
statement gets the current time in the set timezone and formats it toh:mm a
format. - The
console.log(currTime)
statement outputs the formatted time.
For more information on setting the time zone in Express.js, refer to the moment-timezone documentation.
