Timezones

The date picker works with local times by default, but ships with support for changing the timezone. The conversions and correct output relies on either of these three external libraries: luxon, moment-timezone and day.js. For installing and using these libraries check out this guide.

There are two angles regarding timezones:

  • dataTimezone - the datepicker expects this format and returns this format. It is 'local' by default if the date-times don't contain any timezone information
  • displayTimezone - the datepicker displays everything in this timezone. The date-times will be converted from the dataTimezone and displayed accordingly. It is 'local' by default

Invalid date-times will be interpreted in dataTimezone when they contain no timezone info and will be shown in displayTimezone on the wheels.

// Setup Mobiscroll Day.js plugin
mobiscroll.dayjsTimezone.dayjs = dayjs;

mobiscroll.datepicker('#datepicker', {
    controls: ['datetime'],
    dataTimezone: 'utc',
    displayTimezone: 'local',

});
