Static Public Methods

public static eras(length: string, opts: Object): [string] source

Return an array of eras, such as ['BC', 'AD']. The locale can be specified, but the calendar system is always Gregorian.

Params:

Name	Type	Attribute	Description
length	string	optional default: 'short'	the length of the era representation, such as "short" or "long".
opts	Object		options
opts.locale	string	optional	the locale code

Return:

[string]

public static features(): Object source

Return the set of available features in this environment. Some features of Luxon are not available in all environments. For example, on older browsers, timezone support is not available. Use this function to figure out if that's the case. Keys:

zones: whether this environment supports IANA timezones
intlTokens: whether this environment supports internationalized token-based formatting/parsing
intl: whether this environment supports general internationalization

Return:

Object

Example:

Info.features() //=> { intl: true, intlTokens: false, zones: true }

public static hasDST(zone: string | Zone): boolean source

Return whether the specified zone contains a DST.

Params:

Name	Type	Attribute	Description
zone	string \| Zone	optional default: 'local'	Zone to check. Defaults to the environment's local zone.

Return:

boolean

public static isValidIANAZone(zone: string): boolean source

Params:

Name	Type	Attribute	Description
zone	string		Zone to check

Return:

boolean

public static meridiems(opts: Object): [string] source

Return an array of meridiems.

Params:

Name	Type	Attribute	Description
opts	Object		options
opts.locale	string	optional	the locale code

Return:

[string]
