Class: TZInfo::DataSources::ZoneinfoDataSource

Inherits:
TZInfo::DataSource show all
Defined in:
lib/tzinfo/data_sources/zoneinfo_data_source.rb

Overview

A DataSource implementation that loads data from a 'zoneinfo' directory containing compiled "TZif" version 3 (or earlier) files in addition to iso3166.tab and zone1970.tab or zone.tab index files.

To have TZInfo load the system zoneinfo files, call TZInfo::DataSource.set as follows:

TZInfo::DataSource.set(:zoneinfo)

To load zoneinfo files from a particular directory, pass the directory to TZInfo::DataSource.set:

TZInfo::DataSource.set(:zoneinfo, directory)

To load zoneinfo files from a particular directory, but load the iso3166.tab index file from a separate location, pass the directory and path to the iso3166.tab file to TZInfo::DataSource.set:

TZInfo::DataSource.set(:zoneinfo, directory, iso3166_path)

Please note that versions of the 'zic' tool (used to build zoneinfo files) that were released prior to February 2006 created zoneinfo files that used 32-bit integers for transition timestamps. Later versions of zic produce zoneinfo files that use 64-bit integers. If you have 32-bit zoneinfo files on your system, then any queries falling outside of the range 1901-12-13 20:45:52 to 2038-01-19 03:14:07 may be inaccurate.

Most modern platforms include 64-bit zoneinfo files. However, Mac OS X (up to at least 10.8.4) still uses 32-bit zoneinfo files.

To check whether your zoneinfo files contain 32-bit or 64-bit transition data, you can run the following code (substituting the identifier of the zone you want to test for zone_identifier):

TZInfo::DataSource.set(:zoneinfo)
dir = TZInfo::DataSource.get.zoneinfo_dir
File.open(File.join(dir, zone_identifier), 'r') {|f| f.read(5) }

If the last line returns "TZif\\x00", then you have a 32-bit zoneinfo file. If it returns "TZif2" or "TZif3" then you have a 64-bit zoneinfo file.

It is also worth noting that as of the 2017c release of the IANA Time Zone Database, 64-bit zoneinfo files only include future transitions up to 2038-01-19 03:14:07. Any queries falling after this time may be inaccurate.

#initialize(zoneinfo_dir = nil, alternate_iso3166_tab_path = nil) ⇒ ZoneinfoDataSource

Initializes a new TZInfo::DataSources::ZoneinfoDataSource.

If zoneinfo_dir is specified, it will be checked and used as the source of zoneinfo files.

The directory must contain a file named iso3166.tab and a file named either zone1970.tab or zone.tab. These may either be included in the root of the directory or in a 'tab' sub-directory and named country.tab and zone_sun.tab respectively (as is the case on Solaris).

Additionally, the path to iso3166.tab can be overridden using the alternate_iso3166_tab_path parameter.

If zoneinfo_dir is not specified or nil, the paths referenced in search_path are searched in order to find a valid zoneinfo directory (one that contains zone1970.tab or zone.tab and iso3166.tab files as above).

The paths referenced in alternate_iso3166_tab_search_path are also searched to find an iso3166.tab file if one of the searched zoneinfo directories doesn't contain an iso3166.tab file.

Parameters:

  • zoneinfo_dir (String) (defaults to: nil)

    an optional path to a directory to use as the source of zoneinfo files.

  • alternate_iso3166_tab_path (String) (defaults to: nil)

    an optional path to the iso3166.tab file.

Raises:

  • (InvalidZoneinfoDirectory)

    if the iso3166.tab and zone1970.tab or zone.tab files cannot be found using the zoneinfo_dir and alternate_iso3166_tab_path parameters.

  • (ZoneinfoDirectoryNotFound)

    if no valid directory can be found by searching.
