I actually get the timezone setup manually using the timezoneOffset
fonction comming from the Highcharts api, I am currently in gmt+2 so I set it to -2 * 60 but when we ago change the hour in October my setup will not work propely anymore, so I decide to take my browser or the servor time instead. I know we could take the gettimezoneOffset function comming from the api getTimezoneOffset: Function. The pb is I am setup with typescript and Angular 4, how could I make it in an elegant way? thanks in advance
Here's my actual working code using timezoneOffset:
constructor(public userService3: UserService3) {
const Highcharts = require('highcharts');
Highcharts.setOptions({
global: {
timezoneOffset: -2 * 60
}
});
this.options = {
title : { text : '' },
chart: { type: 'area'},
legend: { enabled: false },
credits: { enabled: false },
xAxis: { type: 'datetime',
startOnTick: false,
endOnTick: false,
tickInterval: 36e5 * 2, // two hours
},
yAxis: { min: 0,
max: 100 },
plotOptions: {
series: {
color: '#648e59',
fillOpacity: 0.8,
fillColor: '#648e59',
pointInterval: 36e5 * 2 // two hours
}
},
series: [{
name: 'Someone1',
data: [],
}]
};
}
saveInstance(chartInstance) {
this.chart = chartInstance;
console.log(chartInstance);
}
public ngOnInit () {
this.dataSubscription = this.userService3.getData().subscribe((data)
=> {
this.options.series[0].data = data.data.operating_details;
console.log(data);
});
}
ngOnDestroy() {
if (this.dataSubscription){
this.dataSubscription.unsubscribe();
}
}
Here's my html:
<chart [options]="options" (load)="saveInstance($event.context)">
</chart>
var date = new Date(); var timezone = date.getTimezoneOffset();
But I think you should get the time zone from the server because browser give the timezone according to local system, if someone changes it it will cause problem for you.
