My Rails application validates timezones (and finds offsets) by using the list of timezone names in TZInfo::Timezone.all_identifiers
.
I am able to pull up timezones that have an :00
GMT offset without problems:
irb(main):008:0> TZInfo::Timezone.get("Etc/GMT+1")
=> #<TZInfo::DataTimezone: Etc/GMT+1>
But when attempting to pull up Etc/
timezones with a :30
offset, I receive the following runtime exception:
irb(main):012:0> TZInfo::Timezone.get("Etc/GMT+5:30")
Traceback (most recent call last):
1: from (irb):12
TZInfo::InvalidTimezoneIdentifier (Invalid identifier)
I am specifically looking for Indian/Delhi
or Etc/GMT+5:30
.
How do I add a custom timezone name / offset to the list of sources in the tzinfo
gem?
