How to access the list of all timezones which are recognized by Rails
Raw
rails-timezones.md

Time.find_zone! uses these two methods to look up strings:

  • ActiveSupport::TimeZone[time_zone]
  • TZInfo::Timezone.get(time_zone)

The lists they reference are these:

  • ActiveSupport::TimeZone.all.map(&:tzinfo).map(&:canonical_identifier) (150)
  • TZInfo::Timezone.all_identifiers (606)
