Adding Timezone Support to a production app

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi there,

I have an app with users in one timezone with the date / time stored in their location. Now there are more users in more locations and I would like to support them - ideally without changing to historical data.

At the moment the app uses a time offset field to allow two people to see one note expressed in their timezone.

There are two use cases for this one is the free/busy calendar, the other is the meeting invite ICS file.

At the moment I would like to support ICS which are GMT based.

My guess is that:

* Assign each user to their own timezone
* I take the diary row ($start_date, $start_time) and convert it to a GMT timestamp
* Make the ICS file

I am keen to hear of better solutions or ideas.

Cheers

P
