The worldclock platform simple displays the current time in a different time zone
To enable this sensor in your installation, add the following to your `configuration.yaml` file:
```yaml
# Example configuration.yaml entry
sensor:
platform: worldclock
time_zone: America/New_York
name: New York
```
Configuration variables:
- **time_zone** (*Required*): The resource or endpoint that contains the value.
- **name** (*Optional*): The name of the sensor, eg. the city.
For valid time zones check the **TZ** column in the [Wikipedia overview](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_tz_database_time_zones). Or get the full list from the [pytz](https://pypi.python.org/pypi/pytz) module.
```python
python3 -c "import pytz;print(pytz.all_timezones)"
```
