with_tz
From lubridate v1.2.0
by Garrett Grolemund
Get date-time in a different time zone
with_tz returns a date-time as it would appear in a
different time zone. The actual moment of time measured
does not change, just the time zone it is measured in.
with_tz defaults to the Universal Coordinated time zone
(UTC) when an unrecognized time zone is inputted. See
Sys.timezone
for more information on how R
recognizes time zones.
Usage
with_tz(time, tzone = "")
Arguments
- time
- a POSIXct, POSIXlt, Date, or chron date-time object.
- tzone
- a character string containing the time zone to convert to. R must recognize the name contained in the string as a time zone on your system.
Value
- a POSIXct object in the updated time zone
