no implementation of amLocal

[pantonis]

Hi,

Is there any way to achieve what amLocal (angular-moment) does?

Thanks

[AlekBro]

I also searching some method to convert from UTC to Local time, like it was in angular-moment:
{{message.date | amUtc | amLocal | amDateFormat:'MM.DD.YYYY HH:mm:ss'}}

Perhaps there is some other way to convert from UTC to Local time?

This would be awesome! I would need to display amTimeAgo pipe in local time (not compared to utc time)

A pull request will be appreciated!

@urish did you see this: reberinformatik@0d545cc

[urish]

Yes, if you can make a proper pull request out of it (with tests, updating the documentation in README and everything), that'd be awesome.

Here is an example for a good PR: https://github.com/urish/angular2-moment/pull/148/files

@Hesesses @urish Any update on this? I need the same thing.

[urish]

No update from my end - if someone send a proper PR I will try to merge it this weekend

[benwilkins]

10-4. Thanks for the update. I'll try to submit a PR this weekend if it hasn't already been submitted by then.

@benwilkins did you happen to be superhero and fixed this? :)

@Hesesses Submitted PR: #153

The initial one had an incorrect file name causing the CI to fail. Just submitted an update for that, so hopefully will be merged soon.

I updated the package, but still having problem to display the local time:

<p>{{notification.created_at}}</p> // "2017-07-20 15:05:22"
<p>{{notification.created_at  | amLocal | amDateFormat: 'YYYY-MM-DD HH:mm'}}</p>

I'm located UTC+3 and the bottom line should output "2017-07-20 18:05", but it displays the same UTC datetime as first row. Any ideas?

[Hesesses]

@benwilkins @urish should this work or not? :)

amLocal pipe not working. getting error message below:

The pipe 'amLocal' could not be found

<td>{{ log.attributes.afn_time | amUtc | amLocal | amDateFormat: 'YYYY-MM-DD HH:mm' }}</td>

I couldn't get the amLocal to working to convert from UTC to local - so I did it this way.

//in my component
this.dateBasedOnLocalTimeZone = new Date(this.comment.created_at + " UTC");

//in my template
{{ dateBasedOnLocalTimeZone | amTimeAgo }}

Sorry. The PR I submitted was of someone else's code. I didn't test, just assumed he had. I may look into this more if I have time.

[benwilkins]

The conversion to local is done using moment(value).local(). In testing, if I start with a UTC date of 2017-08-06 20:30:00 and run {{ myDate | amUtc | amLocal | amDateFormat:'YYYY-MM-DD HH:mm }}, I still get the same time.

I tested a few different scenarios in the console to see what is happening. I'm GMT -0500, so I should be getting 2017-08-05 15:30:

moment(myDate).local().format('YYYY-MM-DD HH:mm') 
// Prints 2017-08-05 20:30

moment(myDate).utc().format('YYYY-MM-DD HH:mm') 
// Prints 2017-08-06 01:30

moment(myDate).utc().local().format('YYYY-MM-DD HH:mm') 
// Prints 2017-08-05 20:30

moment.utc(myDate).local().format('YYYY-MM-DD HH:mm') 
// Prints 2017-08-05 15:30 <= This one is correct!

It appears that the local pipe should first set the value as UTC, then convert it to local. I've submitted a PR with the update.

@urish - I actually need this fairly quickly. Could you review and update this weekend?

Closing as we now have amLocal
