Time Zone Jovo Plugin

NPM

Node CI

Overview

This plugin for the Jovo Framework allows you to easily add cross-platform time zone support including an overall default time zone if there is not a country-code-specific default.

Support

This plugin supports Jovo v3.

For the plugin that supports Jovo v4 use @jovo-community/jovo-community-plugin-timezone

Platforms

The following platforms are supported:

  • Amazon Alexa
  • Google Assistant
  • Samsung Bixby

In the case of Amazon Alexa, after the first API call, the time zone is cached in Session Data at:

this.jovo.$session.$data.$timeZone

Don't access or change this value, instead use the method on the plugin:

const tz = await this.$timeZone.getTimeZone();

NOTE: Support for Google Assistant is through default time zone only as the current User Experience (UX) of prompting for location and calling APIs to convert geo-location into a time zone needs improvement.

Install

Install the plugin into your Jovo project:

npm install jovo-community-plugin-timezone --save

Register the plugin in:

app.js:

const { TimeZonePlugin } = require("jovo-community-plugin-timezone");

app.use(
  // ... base imports
  new TimeZonePlugin()
);

app.ts:

import { TimeZonePlugin } from "jovo-community-plugin-timezone";

app.use(
  // ... base imports
  new TimeZonePlugin()
);

Get the time zone in your handler:

myHandler.js or myHandler.ts:

const tz = await this.$timeZone.getTimeZone();

Configuration

You can set an overall default time zone fallback or defaults based on the country code portion of the locale that is sent with every request.

config.js or config.ts:

plugin: {
  TimeZonePlugin: {
    defaultTimeZone: 'America/New_York',
    defaultByLocaleCountryCode: {
      US: 'America/New_York',
      GB: 'Europe/London',
      CA: 'America/Toronto',
      AU: 'Australia/Sydney',
      IN: 'Asia/Kolkata',
    },
  },
},
