Get Time in GMT based on the parameter Time & Timezone

I need to schedule a job daily at 1:30 AM, Here 1:30 AM is Timezone dependent.

For Example:
America/Chicago - 1:30 AM output should be GMT 06:30.
Asia/Kolkata - 1:30 AM output should be GMT 20:00.
Asia/Kabul - 1:30 AM output should be GMT 21:00

I want to create a function that will take Timezone (America/Chicago) and Base Time (1:30) as input and output should be 06:30 in GMT

Solution 

  • // const moment = reqimpuire("moment-timezone");

function toTimeZone(zone) {
  const time = moment.tz("2013-11-18 01:30:00", zone);
  const utc = moment.utc(time).format();
  console.log(utc);
}
toTimeZone("Africa/Tripoli");
