How to set time zone offset?

[light0x00]

ahhh, I know this is a naive question. but different date library has different rule, I usually use yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ss+08 in other date libraries, but it doesn't work for this library . I'm a little confused.

i use a logging library named pino, It uses this library, and time zone is UTC+0, and I want to change it.
So i try to find answer in your document, and I found the following Setting, it seems to be what i want, but I don't know how to use it.

o	GMT/UTC timezone offset, e.g. -0500 or +0230.

What should I do?

I have this same issue. Looking through the issues list now to see if it's been solved

@light0x00 I also use pino with pino-pretty. The o mask pattern just prints out the current offset. It doesn't set an offset and change the output to local time if it was UTC. I wanted the log to display the time with local time zone. My app runs in docker so I achieved this with pino-pretty by doing the following:

• set the environment variable -e "TZ=US/Central" on my docker container
• set the pino-pretty option "translateTime" using the SYS: prefix "SYS:yyyy-mm-dd hh:MM:ss TT Z"

The timestamp entry ended up looking like this afterwards:
[2020-03-01 07:49:02 PM CST]

Adding SYS: before my date string did the trick for me. Thanks!
