ZIP codes are up to date as of May 2024.

Compatibility

Ziptz is tested to work with the following versions of Ruby:

  • Ruby 3.1.x, 3.2.x, 3.3.x

Installation

Add the gem to your Gemfile:

gem 'ziptz'

Usage

Get the time zone name for any ZIP code:

z = Ziptz.new
z.time_zone_name('97213') #=> "America/Los_Angeles"

Get the time zone offset for any ZIP code:

z.time_zone_offset('97213') #=> -28800

Note that offsets do not include daylight saving time.

Determine if the ZIP code uses Daylight Saving Time:

z.time_zone_uses_dst?('97213') #=> true

Get all the zip codes in a time zone:

z.zips('Pacific/Chuuk') #=> ["96942", "96943"]
