An alternative version of the zdump utility.
Without arguments, shows actual time and data about the Europe/Paris zone: ``` zdump Europe/Paris Thu, 19 Dec 2019 13:48:47 +0100 CET, week number: 51 ````
Same thing when specifying a zonename: ```text zdump America/Phoenix America/Phoenix Thu, 19 Dec 2019 05:52:04 -0700 MST, week number: 51 ````
When specifying a zonename and a year, outputs timechanges for that year:
text
zdump Europe/Paris -y 2020
Europe/Paris Sun 29 Mar 01:00:00 2020 UT -> CEST gmtoff=7200 DST: true
Europe/Paris Sun 25 Oct 01:00:00 2020 UT -> CET gmtoff=3600 DST: false
It uses system TZfiles (default location on Linux and Macos /usr/share/zoneinfo). On Windows, default expected location is HOME/.zoneinfo. You can override the TZfiles default location with the TZFILES_DIR environment variable. Example for Windows:
$env:TZFILES_DIR="C:\Users\nbauw\Dev\rs-tzfile\zoneinfo\"; zdump
