    // Error handle...
    log.Fatal(c.Error)
}
fmt.Println(c.ToDateTimeString())
// Output
invalid timezone "xxx", please see the file "$GOROOT/lib/time/zoneinfo.zip" for all valid timezones

FAQ

1、What is the difference between v1 and v2?

There is no difference between v1 and v2 of the API, but the implementation of the translation resource files in language.go is different. The v1 is implemented by the third-party extension library packr, and the v2 is implemented by the standard library embed after golang1.16. If your golang version is 1.16+, the v2 is recommended, otherwise, the v1 is required.
