nnbd migration. Removed lint warnings.

Please see the attached PR.

It contains a version of the code base migrated to nnbd.

It would be great if you can review and publish on pub.dev as I have a package dependant on instant.

Thanks.

Not working while converting IST to EST
DateTime myDT = DateTime.now();//Current DateTime print("current time :- ${myDT}");

//current time :- 2022-03-24 17:44:12.158026

DateTime EST = dateTimeToZone(zone: "EST", datetime: myDT);//DateTime in EST zone print("EST time :- ${EST}");

//EST time :- 2022-03-24 07:14:12.158026Z

this is my code. And right now I check EST zone time on Google it's 8:14 . Why I m getting difference?

The 12 hour time formatter is wrong

When I have a time of 12:50 (24 hour time format) it shows it as 12:50 AM which is 0:50 in 24 hour time format... Please fix this issue when you can. It's a pretty simple one as well.

How to convert a time to the current timezone
I have a datetime in gmt and need to print it out in the local timezone.

I thought I could do something like:

var gmtTime = DateTime.parse('2020-10-27 06:10:05+00:00'); var offset = DateTime.now().timeZoneOffset; /// this is a duration dateTimeToOffset(datetime: expiryDate, offset: offset) // this is a double?

I'm really not a big fan of using doubles as the lack a unit. Dart has really formalised Duration so I would expect this type of library to also use it. The above impedance mismatch also causes problems.

The doco also doesn't state what unit the double is in. I'm guessing its hours?

I end up with:

var gmtTime = DateTime.parse('2020-10-27 06:10:05+00:00'); var offset = DateTime.now().timeZoneOffset; /// this is a duration var hours = offset.inHours + offset.inMinutes / 60; dateTimeToOffset(datetime: expiryDate, offset: hours) // this is a double?

But given the library is meant to make things easier ;<

How to create a specific datetime in a specific zone

All the classes I can find seem to do a 'conversion' of a local datetime to a specific zone.

I know the time in the zone I just need to create a DateTime instance from that.

Essentially I have a time in a string: 2020-10-27 06:10:05+00:00

I need to parse the string into a datetime.

I'm currently doing expiryDate = DateTime.parse('2020-10-27 06:10:05+00:00');

But I would like to do something like: DateTime dt = dateTimeWithZone(2020, 10, 27, 06, 10, 05, 'GMT');
