NAME

DateTime::TimeZone::Catalog::Extend - Extend DateTime::TimeZone catalog

SYNOPSIS

use DateTime::TimeZone;
# After DateTime::TimeZone is loaded, let's extend it
use DateTime::TimeZone::Catalog::Extend;
# That's it; nothing more

# This would normally trigger an exception, but not anymore
my $tz = DateTime::TimeZone->new( name => 'JST' );

# Get the list of all aliases
my $aliases = DateTime::TimeZone::Catalog::Extend->aliases;

my $map = DateTime::TimeZone::Catalog::Extend->zone_map;
my $fmt = DateTime::Format::Strptime->new(
    pattern => $pattern,
    zone_map => $map,
);
my $dt = $fmt->parse_datetime( $str );
die( $fmt->errmsg ) if( !defined( $dt ) );

VERSION

v0.3.3

DESCRIPTION

This is a very simple module based on the list of time zone aliases that are sometimes found in dates.

Upon using this module, it will add to the DateTime::TimeZone::Catalog those aliases with their corresponding time zone offset. When there is more than one time zone offset in the list, only the first one is set.

Here is the list of those time zone aliases and their offset:

METHODS

aliases

Returns an array reference of the time zone aliases.

my $aliases = DateTime::TimeZone::Catalog::Extend->aliases;

You can also achieve the same result by accessing directly the package variable $ALIAS_CATALOG

my $aliases = [sort( keys( %$DateTime::TimeZone::Catalog::Extend::ALIAS_CATALOG ) )];

zone_map

Returns an hash reference of time zone alias to their offset. This class function caches the hash reference so the second time it returns the cached value.

The returned hash reference is suitable to be passed to "new" in DateTime::Format::Strptime with the argument zone_map

my $str = 'Fri Mar 25 2011 12:16:25 ADT';
my $map = DateTime::TimeZone::Catalog::Extend->zone_map;
my $fmt = DateTime::Format::Strptime->new(
    pattern => $pattern,
    zone_map => $map,
);
my $dt = $fmt->parse_datetime( $str );
die( $fmt->errmsg ) if( !defined( $dt ) );

Without passing the zone_map, DateTime::Format::Strptime would have returned the error c<The time zone abbreviation that was parsed is ambiguous>
