PHP - 获取时区缩写，包括夏令时

PHP

$city = "Australia/NSW";
function get_timezone_abre()
{   
    global $city;
    $dateTime = new DateTime(); 
    $dateTime->setTimeZone(new DateTimeZone($city )); 
    return 'A'.$dateTime->format('T'); 
}

Result

AEST

Not sure either this will show daylight saving has started, can someone clarify this please?

Looked at this link, what-are-the-standard-timezone-abbreviations.

Can someone suggest a better way to do this (includes daylight saving)?

Australia DST timezone abbreviation incorrect when using date_default_timezone_set

• Base on this, I assume my abbreviation EST is derived from using older php lib.

Australia/NSW is not a valid timezone identifier. Valid timezone identifiers for Australia are:

[299] => Australia/Adelaide
[300] => Australia/Brisbane
[301] => Australia/Broken_Hill
[302] => Australia/Currie
[303] => Australia/Darwin
[304] => Australia/Eucla
[305] => Australia/Hobart
[306] => Australia/Lindeman
[307] => Australia/Lord_Howe
[308] => Australia/Melbourne
[309] => Australia/Perth
[310] => Australia/Sydney

You can find this list by using DateTimeZone::listIdentifiers() (see reference).

Australia/NSW is valid but this comment here says it was included for backwards compatibility and could be removed.

This code should do what you need, it considers the daylight savings changes too:

<?php
$city = "Australia/NSW";
$timezone = new DateTimeZone($city);
$date_time = new DateTime('now', $timezone);

echo $date_time->format('T') . PHP_EOL;
echo $date_time->modify('+6 months')->format('T');

This will output:

AEST
AEDT

Try this.

date_default_timezone_set('Europe/Sofia');
echo date_default_timezone_get(); // Europe/Sofia
echo ' => '.date('T'); // => EET
