# time-in
CLI tool to figure out the time somewhere else
## Installation
Requires `python3.9+`
To install with pip, run:
```
pip install time-in
```
## Usage
```
time-in tz --help
```
If no timezone is passed, this uses [fzf](https://github.com/junegunn/fzf) to let you select a timezone from a list of all timezones/common countries/capitals.
![fzf example](https://github.com/seanbreckenridge/time-in/blob/main/.github/fzf.png?raw=true)
```
Usage: time-in tz [OPTIONS] [TZ]...
Options:
-f, --format TEXT format for printing dates [default: %Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S %Z]
-h, --hours INTEGER print this many localized hours in timezones
--print-local / --skip-local print the local time as well
-d, --date TEXT date to print [default: now]
-P, --print-local-timezone print the local timezone name as well
-r, --round [up|down|nearest] round the time to the nearest hour
--print-info / --hide-info print timezone info/difference
-S, --sort-diffs sort timezones by difference from the first timezone
--help Show this message and exit.
```
By default, this uses the current time, and prints the time in the timezone(s) passed.
```bash
$ time-in tz US/Eastern
Here (+0) 2023-08-16 10:51:04 PDT
US/Eastern (+3) 2023-08-16 13:51:04 EDT
```
If you want to print the time in the future, you can pass a date:
`$ time-in tz 'US/Eastern' --date '2023-10-16 10:30'`
or, in more human language: `$ time-in tz 'US/Eastern' --date 'in 3 hours'`
Can show multiple timezones:
```bash
$ time-in tz US/Mountain US/Central US/Eastern
Here (+0) 2023-08-16 10:51:52 PDT
US/Mountain (+1) 2023-08-16 11:51:52 MDT
US/Central (+2) 2023-08-16 12:51:52 CDT
US/Eastern (+3) 2023-08-16 13:51:52 EDT
```
To label the timezones differently, you can prepend it with a label:
```bash
$ time-in tz 'East Coast: US/Eastern' 'UK: Europe/London'
Here (+0) 2023-08-16 10:52:04 PDT
East Coast (+3) 2023-08-16 13:52:04 EDT
UK (+8) 2023-08-16 18:52:04 BST
```
This can also show a range of dates, if you pass `--hours`:
```bash
$ time-in tz 'East Coast: US/Eastern' 'UK: Europe/London' --hours 12 --round down
Here (+0) [Aug 16] 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21
East Coast (+3) [Aug 16] 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 00
UK (+8) [Aug 16] 18 19 20 21 22 23 00 01 02 03 04 05
```
```bash
$ time-in tz -h 6 -r down --print-local-timezone US/Eastern Europe/London Asia/Calcutta Asia/Shanghai Asia/Tokyo US/Hawaii
America/Los_Angeles (+0) [Aug 16] 10 11 12 13 14 15
US/Eastern (+3) [Aug 16] 13 14 15 16 17 18
Europe/London (+8) [Aug 16] 18 19 20 21 22 23
Asia/Calcutta (+12.5) [Aug 16] 22:30 23:30 00:30 01:30 02:30 03:30
Asia/Shanghai (+15) [Aug 17] 01 02 03 04 05 06
Asia/Tokyo (+16) [Aug 17] 02 03 04 05 06 07
US/Hawaii (-3) [Aug 16] 07 08 09 10 11 12
```
## Example Usage
I create a wrapper `tz` script that just passes the arguments to `time-in tz`:
```bash
#!/bin/sh
exec time-in tz "$@"
```
And then have a `tz-friends` functions in my shell for my friends in different timezones:
```
tz-friends () {
tz "$@" 'East Coast: America/New_York' 'Japan: Asia/Tokyo' 'UK: Europe/London' 'India: Asia/Calcutta'
}
```
```bash
$ tz-friends
Here (+0) 2023-08-17 21:12:57 PDT
East Coast (+3) 2023-08-18 00:12:57 EDT
Japan (+16) 2023-08-18 13:12:57 JST
UK (+8) 2023-08-18 05:12:57 BST
India (+12.5) 2023-08-18 09:42:57 IST
$ tz-friends -h 6 -r down
Here (+0) [Aug 17] 21 22 23 00 01 02
East Coast (+3) [Aug 18] 00 01 02 03 04 05
Japan (+16) [Aug 18] 13 14 15 16 17 18
UK (+8) [Aug 18] 05 06 07 08 09 10
India (+12.5) [Aug 18] 09:30 10:30 11:30 12:30 13:30 14:30
```
