Leaflet.timezones

Overlay timezones on a Leaflet Earth map.

Demo https://dj0001.github.io/Leaflet.timezones/

Usage

Leaflet.timezones extends the GeoJSON class. Adding the sunset to a leaflet popup is as easy as:

L.timezones.addTo(map);

with timezone popup:

L.timezones.bindPopup(function (layer) {
    return layer.feature.properties.time_zone;
}).addTo(map);

with worldclock popup:

L.timezones.bindPopup(function (layer) {
    return new Date().toLocaleString("en-GB", {timeZone:layer.feature.properties.tz_name1st, timeZoneName:"short"})
}).addTo(map);

leaflet.timezones's Issues

Here is how you update the timezones

This package was last updated 7 years ago. A lot of timezones have changed since then. Here is how to get the latest data:

1. Go to the evansiroky/timezone-boundary-builder and download the latest timezones-with-oceans.geojson.zip.

2. Unzip the file and use mapshaper.org to simplify the geoJson file. Otherwise it will be way too big. Here are instructions.

3. Export the simplified geoJson file and replace the geoJson data in this file: https://github.com/dj0001/Leaflet.timezones/blob/master/L.timezones.js

Then you're good to go!

Note: After doing this, the popup will not display the correct time. You need to add the timezone offset as an attribute on the each geoJson object.

help

Can you add a control, turn it on when you need it, and turn it off when you don't need it.

License is not known

Hey,

first of all, thanks for the nice plugin!

I'd like to use it in our project. Can you clarify what's the license of the code?

Thanks!
