NAME

App::TimeZoneUtils - An assortment of time-zone-related CLI utilities

VERSION

This document describes version 0.001 of App::TimeZoneUtils (from Perl distribution App-TimeZoneUtils), released on 2021-09-06.

SYNOPSIS

This distribution provides the following command-line utilities related to time zones:

FUNCTIONS

detect_local_time_zone

Usage:

detect_local_time_zone() -> [$status_code, $reason, $payload, \%result_meta]

Detect local time zone.

Currently uses DateTime::TimeZone, which has several heuristics itself (please see the module for more details). When local time zone cannot be determined, it dies.

This function is not exported.

No arguments.

Returns an enveloped result (an array).

First element ($status_code) is an integer containing HTTP-like status code (200 means OK, 4xx caller error, 5xx function error). Second element ($reason) is a string containing error message, or something like "OK" if status is 200. Third element ($payload) is the actual result, but usually not present when enveloped result is an error response ($status_code is not 2xx). Fourth element (%result_meta) is called result metadata and is optional, a hash that contains extra information, much like how HTTP response headers provide additional metadata.

Return value: (any)

CONTRIBUTING

To contribute, you can send patches by email/via RT, or send pull requests on GitHub.

Most of the time, you don't need to build the distribution yourself. You can simply modify the code, then test via:

% prove -l

If you want to build the distribution (e.g. to try to install it locally on your system), you can install Dist::Zilla, Dist::Zilla::PluginBundle::Author::PERLANCAR, and sometimes one or two other Dist::Zilla plugin and/or Pod::Weaver::Plugin. Any additional steps required beyond that are considered a bug and can be reported to me.
