How to Install Geo2tz on macOS

Geo2tz is a Python package that allows you to convert geographic coordinates to time zones. In this tutorial, we will go through the steps of installing Geo2tz on macOS.

Prerequisites

Installation

  1. Open the Terminal app by pressing Command + Space, searching for "Terminal", and then clicking on the Terminal app.

  2. Install Geo2tz using pip by executing the following command in the Terminal:

pip install geo2tz

If you receive a "Permission denied" error, try adding "sudo" before the command:

sudo pip install geo2tz
  1. Once the installation is complete, you can start using Geo2tz in your Python scripts. For example, to convert the coordinates (40.7128, -74.0060) to the corresponding time zone, you can run:
from geo2tz import geo2tz
timezone = geo2tz.get_timezone(40.7128, -74.0060)
print(timezone)

This should output the time zone "America/New_York".

Congratulations, you have successfully installed Geo2tz on your macOS machine!
