I realize, this question is repeated but previous once does not provide apt answer
moment package was already installed
1.Installed package
npm install moment-timezone --save
Inside node_modules directory
|
|--moment
|--moment-timezone
directories present
2.
Index.html included script
<script src="node_modules/moment-timezone/moment-timezone.js"></script>
System.config.js
var map = {
'moment': 'node_modules/moment',
'momentzone': 'node_modules/moment-timezone'
};
var packages = {
'moment': { defaultExtension: 'js' },
'momentzone': { defaultExtension: 'js' }
};
3.Inside component.ts file
import * as moment from 'moment/moment';
export class TimeComponent implements OnInit{
ngOninit(){
console.log(moment("2014-06-01T12:00:00Z").tz('America/Los_Angeles').format('ha z'));
}
}
What should be imported to prevent error
Property tz does not exist on type 'Moment'
This might help.
Run Following command for angular-cli or npm install.
sudo npm install moment moment-timezone --save
npm install @types/moment @types/moment-timezone --save-dev
for npm systemjs.config.js
map: {
'moment': 'npm:moment',
'moment-timezone': 'npm:moment-timezone/builds'
}
packages: {
'moment': {
main: './moment.js',
defaultExtension: 'js'
},
'moment-timezone': {
main: './moment-timezone-with-data-2010-2020.min.js',
defaultExtension: 'js'
}
}
where ever you want to use time-zone in .ts file
import * as moment from 'moment-timezone';
@Component({
selector: 'my-app',
template: `<h1>Hello {{name}}</h1>`,
})
export class AppComponent {
name = 'Angular';
jun = moment();// creating obj.
constructor() {
this.jun.tz('America/Los_Angeles').format('hh : mm : ss a z');
console.log(this.jun.tz('America/Los_Angeles').format('hh : mm : ss a z'));
console.log(moment.tz.names()); // for all time zone.
}
Updated for Angular 4
Install moment-timezone
on your command line:
npm i -S moment-timezone
Import moment-timezone
in your component:
import * as moment from 'moment-timezone';
Use it according to docs:
this.time = moment().tz('America/New_York').format('HH:mm:ss z')
16:20:42 EDT
docs
moment docs
moment timezone docs
note: moment
was intentionally not installed or imported as it is a dependency of moment-timezone
.
To install moment-timezone for Angular in 2018:
Install moment.js and moment-timezone
npm install moment moment-timezone @types/moment-timezone --save
Import these modules in your .ts file
import * as moment from 'moment';
import 'moment-timezone';
Github issue: How to resolve the 'tz' build error.
That error says the Typescript compiler can't find the .tz(...)
method on moment
's type definitions (typings).
All you have to do is install moment-timezone
's typings, so it adds tz
to moment()
.
(You usually install typings for every lib you are going to use. The thing is that some, such as angular and moment, have their type definition files embedded in the libs' sources themselves, thus freeing you from the need to install their typings.)
So, as said, just install moment-timezone
's typings:
# if you have typings version 1.X.X
typings install moment-timezone --save --global
# if you have typings version 0.X.X
typings install moment-timezone --save --ambient
And everything should work... if you do one thing more:
Rename your configs from momentzone
to moment-timezone
(and add the .js
files):
var map = {
'moment': 'node_modules/moment/moment.js',
'moment-timezone': 'node_modules/moment-timezone/moment-timezone.js'
};
var packages = {
'moment': { defaultExtension: 'js' },
'moment-timezone': { defaultExtension: 'js' }
};
That is needed because the name you use here is the name you are going to use in the import
. And the name you use in the import
is the name the typescript compiler will use to find the type definitions. And the typings you installed define a module called moment-timezone
, not momentzone
.
After that, use:
import * as moment from 'moment';
import 'moment-timezone'; // since this module only has side-effects, this is enough
That should be all.
PS.: In the settings above, your compiler will pick moment
's typings from moment
's source AND moment-timezone
's typings (the tz
function) from the DefinitelyTyped repository (typings.json).
Sometimes, though, they don't play nice. If that happens to you, you'll have to override moment
's typings from source with moment
's typings from the DefinitelyTyped repository (typings.json).
In other words do:
# Only do this if installing moment-timezone alone didn't work...
# if you have typings version 1.X.X
typings install moment moment-timezone --save --global
# if you have typings version 0.X.X
typings install moment moment-timezone --save --ambient
I was having the same issue, and did everything that acdcjunior suggested, but also had to install the typings for moment-node:
typings install dt~moment-node --save --global
After doing this it worked like a charm.
