Clock CLI

A simple time zone converter for the command line.

Usage

Input a time (flexibly parsed by Arrow) and see the time localized in all your time zones. If a timezone is provided, the input time is parsed in that time zone. Otherwise, the input time is parsed in your local time.

$ clock "2022-08-10 22:00" -t "Asia/Hong_Kong"
Time zone            Local time
-------------------  -----------------------
America/New_York     2022-08-10 10:00 -04:00
America/Los_Angeles  2022-08-10 07:00 -07:00
Asia/Hong_Kong       2022-08-10 22:00 +08:00

Add a new time zone using --add. When the entered text matches multiple IANA time zones, you will be prompted to choose which you want.

$ clock 2022 --add sin
Multiple time zones matched 'sin'. Which is correct?
0. Europe/Chisinau
1. Singapore
2. Europe/Helsinki
3. Europe/Busingen
4. Asia/Singapore

Clock CLI saves a list of output time zones in ~/.clock; feel free to edit this list directly.

$ cat ~/.clock
timezones = [ "America/New_York", "America/Los_Angeles", "Asia/Hong_Kong", ]

Additional options are provided for output formatting and debugging.

$ clock --help
