Javascript中特定日期的时区名称的时区偏移量

Question

How can I find timezone offset in hours or minutes using timezone name for a specific date.

Example use would be :

var offset = findOffset("America/New_York", new Date(2019,08,07))
// offset is -4

I am hoping to find a solution using native JS, but if it does not exist I am also ok with using some libraries.

Answer 1

I will recommend Moment Timezone which is a JS library and it is quite popular (3,660,521 weeks NPM downloads). Moment and Moment Timezone are sibling libraries (Same developer).

The moment timezone library gives you offset in the output like shown below:

moment.tz("2013-12-01", "America/Los_Angeles").format(); // 2013-12-01T00:00:00-08:00

moment.tz("2013-06-01", "America/Los_Angeles").format(); // 2013-06-01T00:00:00-07:00

Answer 2

So here is the answer I found

const findTimeZoneOffset = (tz,date) => {
  let utcDate = new Date(date.toLocaleString('en-US', { timeZone: "UTC" }));
  let tzDate = new Date(date.toLocaleString('en-US', { timeZone: tz }));
  let diff = ( tzDate.getTime() - utcDate.getTime() ) / 1000 / 60 / 60;
  return diff;
};

and as expected

findTimeZoneOffset("America/New_York", new Date(2019,08,07))
// returns -4
