React-native-calendars: Set timezone for calendar

[ashokrse2020]

I would like to set timeZone for the calendar component and i want to display it based on their timezone format.

How to do that?

Hi, currently there is not time zone parameter, but you can set monthFormat, localize month/weekday names and set first day of the week manually.

Thanks for the quick reply.

_I have different use case._

_1. i want force calendar component to use specific timeZone instead of local timeZone._

[tautvilas]

what do you need the timeZone for? Since we are not dealing with times but only with dates?

[ashokrse2020]

My app is for particular region(United States).

My Use case is if he is in other country also it should take US date.

@AshokICreate you should be able to just hardcode that date format in instead of depending on the user's local time/date.

[ashokrse2020]

hardCoding values will help you to show the currentDate but onDayPress of date it's giving me date based on localTimeZone which is not use full in my case.

what i am expecting is set timeZone: 'America/Los_Angeles', onDayPress Get me the date and time based on timeZone which i have set.

onDayPress is giving selected day info. If you are talking about timestamp property - it is UTC timestamp representing the day selected. Could you elaborate why do you need to set timezone? What is the exact usecase?
