Quick Start

from countrystatecity_timezones import (
    get_all_timezones,
    get_timezones_by_country,
    get_timezone_by_zone_name,
    get_timezones_by_offset,
    search_timezones,
    convert_time,
)
from datetime import datetime

# Get all timezones
timezones = get_all_timezones()
# [Timezone(zoneName="Africa/Abidjan", gmtOffset=0, ...), ...]

# Get timezones for a country
us_timezones = get_timezones_by_country("US")
# [Timezone(zoneName="America/Adak", countryCode="US", ...), ...]

# Lookup by IANA zone name
tz = get_timezone_by_zone_name("America/New_York")
# Timezone(zoneName="America/New_York", gmtOffset=-18000, gmtOffsetName="UTC-05:00", ...)

# Filter by GMT offset (seconds)
utc_minus_5 = get_timezones_by_offset(-18000)

# Search by name or abbreviation
results = search_timezones("Eastern")

# Convert time between timezones
dt = datetime(2024, 1, 1, 12, 0, 0)
converted = convert_time(dt, "America/New_York", "Asia/Kolkata")
# datetime(2024, 1, 1, 22, 30, tzinfo=ZoneInfo("Asia/Kolkata"))
