Function tzdb::now::local

pub fn local() -> Result<DateTime, NowError>

Get the current time in the local system time zone

Errors

Possible errors include:

• The current Unix time could not be determined.
• The current Unix time could not be projected into the time zone. Most likely the system time is off, or you are a time traveler trying run this code a few billion years in the future or past.
• The local time zone could not be determined.
• The local time zone is not a valid IANA time zone.

Example

// Query the time zone of the local system:
let now = tzdb::now::local()?;

In most cases you will want to default to a specified time zone if the system timezone could not be determined. Then use e.g.

let now = tzdb::now::local_or(tzdb::time_zone::GMT)?;
