How to set timezone for the EMQX container?

Hi, guys

I want to change the timezone of the EMQX container. Is there a convenient way to implement it?

1. Create a ConfigMap to import the time zone settings that you want to use.
   For other time zones, use the corresponding files in the /usr/share/zoneinfo/Asia/ directory. Example:

   kubectl create configmap tz --from-file=/usr/share/zoneinfo/Asia/Shanghai
   

2. Mount the ConfigMap in a emqx yaml.

   cat << "EOF" | kubectl apply -f -
   apiVersion: apps.emqx.io/v1beta3
   kind: EmqxEnterprise
   metadata:
     name: emqx-ee
     labels:
       "foo": "bar"
   spec:
     emqxTemplate:
       image: emqx/emqx-ee:4.4.6
       extraVolumeMounts:
       - name: tz
         mountPath: /etc/localtime
         subPath: Shanghai
       extraVolumes:
       - name: tz
         configMap:
           name: tz
   EOF
   

3. Check if the time zone validated

   kubectl exec -it emqx-ee-0 -c emqx -- bash -c "date -R"
   

   You will find the time zone being changed Shanghai.
