I think I can assume it is UTC.
org/basex/util/DateTime.java contains:
static { FULL.setTimeZone(TimeZone.getTimeZone("UTC")); }
If there is a way to use the default timezone that would be better. Meanwhile, I made a module so that I can use source from JDK 1.8.x:
package somewhere;
import java.time.LocalDateTime; import java.time.ZonedDateTime; import java.time.ZoneId; import java.time.format.DateTimeFormatter;
import org.basex.query.QueryException; import org.basex.query.QueryModule;
public class Time extends QueryModule {
public String zonedTime(String pattern) throws QueryException { return ZonedDateTime.from(LocalDateTime.now() .withHour(20) .withMinute(0) .withSecond(0) .atZone(ZoneId.systemDefault())) .withZoneSameInstant(ZoneId.of("UTC")) .format(DateTimeFormatter.ofPattern(pattern)); } } and, then in XQuery:
jobs:eval(‘trace(“WENT”)’, map {}, map {‘id’: ‘somejob’, ‘start’: t:zoned-time(‘HH:mm:ss’)})

declare namespace tz = "java:java.time.ZonedDateTime";
tz:now()
returns 2017-07-28T14:23:08.334-07:00[America/Los_Angeles]
Logs in dba seem to use the local time zone to display the date.
The timestamp on resources is in UTC time, which is good.
modified-date=”2017-07-28T21:17:53.347Z”
But, do I have to use UTC time for scheduling jobs?
For example:
job:eval(‘…’, map {}, map {‘start’: ‘20:00:00’})
schedules the job for 5AM instead of 10PM, I think.
If I can assume the time is UTC then I can figure out how to schedule the correct time. But, can I assume that it is UTC, or can I specify a Zoned time without a date?
