DateTime Doesn't Have Store's Local Time In Delivery Customization Extension JavaScript

Hi @ShamiqTheDev, you are on the right track, but the localTime.date is only the date. You'll want to use timeAfter/timeBefore/timeBetween to work with time.

@ShamiqTheDev These operations refer to time as in the shop's timezone. The documentation for localTime says

localTime (LocalTime!)
Information about the current time relative to the shop's timezone setting.

The highlighted line in your query above will return true if, at the time of running the customization function, the local time in UAE is between midnight and 16:00.

Hi @jamesvidler,

I am using
uaeShippingToday :timeBetween(startTime: "00:00:00", endTime: "15:59:59"),
can you please confirm the time zone it uses? the store is in UAE timezone.

Also, can you confirm if I am using it the right way, like startTime 12 am and endTime 4 pm UAE time?

@k3rni Thank you so much for the clarification. I am developing the extension on my development store where the timezone was not set properly, hence confused me, I discovered I must set the store's local time zone from shop settings, after which my doubt was cleared out and I was able to write my logic properly.

Thanks everyone for the support here.
