Functions

func ConvertTimeZone

func ConvertTimeZone(datetime time.Time, fromLocation string, toLocation string) (time.Time, bool)

ConvertTimeZone converts |datetime| from one timezone to another. |fromLocation| and |toLocation| can be either the name of a timezone (e.g. "UTC") or a MySQL-formatted timezone offset (e.g. "+01:00"). If the time was converted successfully, then the second return value will be true, otherwise the time was not able to be converted.

func MySQLOffsetToDuration

func MySQLOffsetToDuration(d string) (time.Duration, error)

MySQLOffsetToDuration takes in a MySQL timezone offset (e.g. "+01:00") and returns it as a time.Duration. If any problems are encountered, an error is returned.

func SecondsToMySQLOffset

func SecondsToMySQLOffset(offset int) string

SecondsToMySQLOffset takes in a timezone offset in seconds (as returned by time.Time.Zone()) and returns it as a MySQL timezone offset (e.g. "+01:00").

func SystemTimezoneOffset

func SystemTimezoneOffset() string

SystemTimezoneOffset returns the current system timezone offset as a MySQL timezone offset (e.g. "+01:00").
