# Generate Timezone JSON
### Installation
`npm i generate-timezone-json`
### Usage
1. Run: `generate-timezone-json` to generate timezones.json from official IANA Database,
- this will generate a file named "timezones.json" with data coming from the official IANA database
1. Run: `generate-timezone-json <filename>` to generate timezones.json from a TAB file,
- for example, using a file named "zone.tab": `generate-timezone-json zone.tab`
### Gotchas
1. Note that the structure of the generated JSON file will be different depending on the source (i.e, zone.tab or the IANA timezones database)
### Planned features (not yet implemented)
1. Specify an output directory with option `--outDir`: `generate-timezone <filename> --outDir <directory>`
