Rails BST timezone implementation

问题

Does anyone know how i can use BST for config.time_zone in my rails config/environment.rb file?

At the moment i have left it as UTC and i'm thinking of adding BST to the list of supported timezones, and then extending the Time class to respect this (> last sunday of X month + 1hr)

Where can i find the list of supported timezones?

Searching around i have found alot of complaints but not alot of answers. this will be up on guthub asap.

Cheers, Dougle

回答1:

rake time:zones:all

You'll probably see a time zone named London, which is just UTC +00:00, but should handle UK daylight saving time properly.

回答2:

The TimeZone you need to set is UK, this will automatically handle BST

Time.zone = 'London'
Time.zone.now
 => Sun, 17 Oct 2010 02:09:54 BST +01:00
