Шаблон:CurrentTimeIn
This template prints the current UTC time offset by (UsualDifferenceFromUTCForThisLocation + DSTAdjustment) hours.
- Syntax:
- {{CurrentTimeIn [ |
- [ UsualDifferenceFromUTCForThisLocation=hours| ]
- [ DSTAdjustment=hours| ]
- ] }}
Missing parameters (or completely empty parameters, without even any blank in the hours value) are treated like zero.
- Rationale:
The reason we separate out the "usual" difference from UTC and the DST adjustment is that the first part remains constant forever.
Whereas the second part changes twice a year.
This arrangement is the best way to minimize the number of pages we have to change when the clock changes.
- Examples:
The current time in London is {{CurrentTimeIn| UsualDifferenceFromUTCForThisLocation=0| DSTAdjustment={{Current daylight saving offset in Europe}}}}
and
The current time in Paris is {{CurrentTimeIn| UsualDifferenceFromUTCForThisLocation=1| DSTAdjustment={{Current daylight saving offset in Europe}}}}
and when the clocks change in Europe, the only page we have to change is {{Current daylight saving offset in Europe}} which is minimal number of pages.
This template is usually wrapped by another template which controls the positioning of the time on the page. One example is {{CurrentTimeInHeader}} which puts the time near the top of the page.
