LocalDateTime

Extends:

TemporalAccessorTemporalChronoLocalDateTime → LocalDateTime

A date-time without a time-zone in the ISO-8601 calendar system, such as 2007-12-03T10:15:30.

LocalDateTime is an immutable date-time object that represents a date-time, often viewed as year-month-day-hour-minute-second. Other date and time fields, such as day-of-year, day-of-week and week-of-year, can also be accessed. Time is represented to nanosecond precision. For example, the value '2nd October 2007 at 13:45.30.123456789' can be stored in a LocalDateTime.

This class does not store or represent a time-zone. Instead, it is a description of the date, as used for birthdays, combined with the local time as seen on a wall clock. It cannot represent an instant on the time-line without additional information such as an offset or time-zone.

The ISO-8601 calendar system is the modern civil calendar system used today in most of the world. It is equivalent to the proleptic Gregorian calendar system, in which today's rules for leap years are applied for all time. For most applications written today, the ISO-8601 rules are entirely suitable. However, any application that makes use of historical dates, and requires them to be accurate will find the ISO-8601 approach unsuitable.

Static properties of Class LocalTime

LocalDateTime.MIN

The minimum supported LocalDateTime, '-999999999-01-01T00:00:00'. This is the local date-time of midnight at the start of the minimum date. This combines LocalDate#MIN and LocalTime#MIN. This could be used by an application as a 'far past' date-time.

LocalDateTime.MAX

The maximum supported LocalDateTime, '+999999999-12-31T23:59:59.999999999'. This is the local date-time just before midnight at the end of the maximum date. This combines LocalDate#MAX and LocalTime#MAX. This could be used by an application as a 'far future' date-time.

Static Public Methods

public static from(temporal: TemporalAccessor): LocalDateTime source

Obtains an instance of LocalDateTime from a temporal object.

A TemporalAccessor represents some form of date and time information. This factory converts the arbitrary temporal object to an instance of LocalDateTime.

The conversion extracts and combines LocalDate and LocalTime.

This method matches the signature of the functional interface TemporalQuery allowing it to be used as a query via method reference, LocalDateTime::from.

Params:

NameTypeAttributeDescription
temporal TemporalAccessor
  • nullable: false

the temporal object to convert, not null

Return:

LocalDateTime

{LocalDateTime} the local date-time, not null

Throw:

DateTimeException

if unable to convert to a LocalDateTime

public static now(clockOrZone: Clock | ZoneId): LocalDateTime source

Obtains the current date-time from from the specified clock or the system clock in the specified time-zone.

If the argument is an instance of Clock this will query the specified clock to obtain the current date-time. Using this method allows the use of an alternate clock for testing. The alternate clock may be introduced using dependency injection.

If the argument is an instance of ZoneId this will query the system clock (see Clock#system) to obtain the current date-time. Specifying the time-zone avoids dependence on the default time-zone.

If nor argument is applied, the system default time zone is used to obtain the current date-time.

Using this method will prevent the ability to use an alternate clock for testing because the clock is hard-coded.

Params:

NameTypeAttributeDescription
clockOrZone Clock | ZoneId

the zone ID or clock to use, if null Clock.systemDefaultZone() is used.

Return:

LocalDateTime

the current date-time using the system clock, not null

public static of(): LocalDateTime source

function overloading for LocalDateTime.of

if called with 2 arguments and first argument is an instance of LocalDate and second is an instance of LocalTime, then LocalDateTime.ofDateAndTime is executed.

Otherwise LocalDateTime.ofNumbers is executed.

Return:

LocalDateTime

public static ofDateAndTime(date: LocalDate, time: LocalTime): LocalDateTime source

Obtains an instance of LocalDateTime from a date and time.

Params:

NameTypeAttributeDescription
date LocalDate
  • nullable: false

Return:

LocalDateTime

the local date-time, not null

public static ofEpochSecond(epochSecond: number, nanoOfSecond: number | !ZoneOffset, offset: ZoneOffset): LocalDateTime source

Obtains an instance of LocalDateTime using seconds from the epoch of 1970-01-01T00:00:00Z.

This allows the ChronoField.INSTANT_SECONDS epoch-second field to be converted to a local date-time. This is primarily intended for low-level conversions rather than general application usage.

Params:

NameTypeAttributeDescription
epochSecond number

the number of seconds from the epoch of 1970-01-01T00:00:00Z

nanoOfSecond number | !ZoneOffset

the nanosecond within the second, from 0 to 999,999,999

Return:

LocalDateTime

the local date-time, not null

Throw:

DateTimeException

if the result exceeds the supported range

public static ofInstant(instant: Instant, zone: ZoneId): LocalDateTime source

Obtains an instance of LocalDateTime from an Instant and zone ID.

This creates a local date-time based on the specified instant. First, the offset from UTC/Greenwich is obtained using the zone ID and instant, which is simple as there is only one valid offset for each instant. Then, the instant and offset are used to calculate the local date-time.

Params:

NameTypeAttributeDescription
instant Instant
  • nullable: false

the instant to create the date-time from, not null

zone ZoneId
  • optional
  • default: ZoneId.systemDefault()

Public Methods

public adjustInto(temporal: TemporalAdjuster): LocalDateTime source

Adjusts the specified temporal object to have the same date and time as this object.

This returns a temporal object of the same observable type as the input with the date and time changed to be the same as this.

The adjustment is equivalent to using Temporal#with twice, passing ChronoField#EPOCH_DAY and ChronoField#NANO_OF_DAY as the fields.

In most cases, it is clearer to reverse the calling pattern by using Temporal#with:

  // these two lines are equivalent, but the second approach is recommended
  temporal = thisLocalDateTime.adjustInto(temporal);
  temporal = temporal.with(thisLocalDateTime);

This instance is immutable and unaffected by this method call.

Override:

ChronoLocalDateTime#adjustInto

Params:

NameTypeAttributeDescription
temporal TemporalAdjuster

the target object to be adjusted, not null

Return:

LocalDateTime

the adjusted object, not null

Throw:

DateTimeException

if unable to make the adjustment

ArithmeticException

if numeric overflow occurs

public atOffset(offset: ZoneOffset): OffsetDateTime source

Combines this date-time with an offset to create an OffsetDateTime.

This returns an OffsetDateTime formed from this date-time at the specified offset. All possible combinations of date-time and offset are valid.

Params:

NameTypeAttributeDescription
offset ZoneOffset

the offset to combine with, not null

Return:

OffsetDateTime

the offset date-time formed from this date-time and the specified offset, not null

public atZone(zone: ZoneId): ZonedDateTime source

Combines this date-time with a time-zone to create a ZonedDateTime.

This returns a ZonedDateTime formed from this date-time at the specified time-zone. The result will match this date-time as closely as possible. Time-zone rules, such as daylight savings, mean that not every local date-time is valid for the specified zone, thus the local date-time may be adjusted.

The local date-time is resolved to a single instant on the time-line. This is achieved by finding a valid offset from UTC/Greenwich for the local date-time as defined by the ZoneRules of the zone ID.

In most cases, there is only one valid offset for a local date-time. In the case of an overlap, where clocks are set back, there are two valid offsets. This method uses the earlier offset typically corresponding to 'summer'.

In the case of a gap, where clocks jump forward, there is no valid offset. Instead, the local date-time is adjusted to be later by the length of the gap. For a typical one hour daylight savings change, the local date-time will be moved one hour later into the offset typically corresponding to 'summer'.

To obtain the later offset during an overlap, call ZonedDateTime#withLaterOffsetAtOverlap on the result of this method. To throw an exception when there is a gap or overlap, use ZonedDateTime#ofStrict.

Params:

NameTypeAttributeDescription
zone ZoneId

the time-zone to use, not null

Return:

ZonedDateTime

the zoned date-time formed from this date-time, not null

public compareTo(other: LocalDateTime): number source

Compares this date-time to another date-time.

The comparison is primarily based on the date-time, from earliest to latest. It is 'consistent with equals', as defined by Comparable.

If all the date-times being compared are instances of LocalDateTime, then the comparison will be entirely based on the date-time. If some dates being compared are in different chronologies, then the chronology is also considered, see ChronoLocalDateTime#compareTo.

Params:

NameTypeAttributeDescription
other LocalDateTime
  • nullable: false

the other date-time to compare to, not null

Return:

number

the comparator value, negative if less, positive if greater

public dayOfMonth(): number source

Return:

number

the day-of-month, from 1 to 31

public dayOfWeek(): DayOfWeek source

Gets the day-of-week field, which is an enum DayOfWeek.

This method returns the enum DayOfWeek for the day-of-week. This avoids confusion as to what int values mean. If you need access to the primitive int value, use DayOfWeek#getValue.

Additional information can be obtained from the DayOfWeek. This includes textual names of the values.

Return:

DayOfWeek

the day-of-week, not null

public dayOfYear(): number source

Gets the day-of-year field.

This method returns the primitive int value for the day-of-year.

Return:

Outputs this date-time as a string using the formatter.

Params:

NameTypeAttributeDescription
formatter DateTimeFormatter
  • nullable: false

the formatter to use, not null

Return:

String

the formatted date-time string, not null

Throw:

DateTimeException

if an error occurs during printing

public get(field: TemporalField): number source

Gets the value of the specified field from this date-time as an int.

This queries this date-time for the value for the specified field. The returned value will always be within the valid range of values for the field. If it is not possible to return the value, because the field is not supported or for some other reason, an exception is thrown.

If the field is a ChronoField then the query is implemented here. The supported fields (see isSupported) will return valid values based on this date-time, except NANO_OF_DAY, MICRO_OF_DAY, EPOCH_DAY and EPOCH_MONTH which are too large to fit in an int and throw a DateTimeException. All other ChronoField instances will throw a DateTimeException.

If the field is not a ChronoField, then the result of this method is obtained by invoking TemporalField.getFrom passing this as the argument. Whether the value can be obtained, and what the value represents, is determined by the field.

Override:

TemporalAccessor#get

Params:

NameTypeAttributeDescription
field TemporalField
  • nullable: false

the field to get, not null

Return:

number

the value for the field

Throw:

DateTimeException

  LocalDate a = LocalDateTime.of(2012, 6, 30, 12, 00);
  LocalDate b = LocalDateTime.of(2012, 7, 1, 12, 00);
  a.isAfter(b) == false
  a.isAfter(a) == false
  b.isAfter(a) == true

This method only considers the position of the two date-times on the local time-line. It does not take into account the chronology, or calendar system. This is different from the comparison in compareTo, but is the same approach as DATE_TIME_COMPARATOR.

Params:

NameTypeAttributeDescription
other LocalDateTime

the other date-time to compare to, not null

Return:

boolean

true if this date-time is after the specified date-time

public isBefore(other: LocalDateTime): boolean source

  LocalDate a = LocalDateTime.of(2012, 6, 30, 12, 00);
  LocalDate b = LocalDateTime.of(2012, 7, 1, 12, 00);
  a.isBefore(b) == true
  a.isBefore(a) == false
  b.isBefore(a) == false

This method only considers the position of the two date-times on the local time-line. It does not take into account the chronology, or calendar system. This is different from the comparison in compareTo, but is the same approach as DATE_TIME_COMPARATOR.

Params:

NameTypeAttributeDescription
other LocalDateTime

the other date-time to compare to, not null

Return:

boolean

true if this date-time is before the specified date-time

public isEqual(other: LocalDateTime): boolean source

  LocalDate a = LocalDateTime.of(2012, 6, 30, 12, 00);
  LocalDate b = LocalDateTime.of(2012, 7, 1, 12, 00);
  a.isEqual(b) == false
  a.isEqual(a) == true
  b.isEqual(a) == false

This method only considers the position of the two date-times on the local time-line. It does not take into account the chronology, or calendar system. This is different from the comparison in compareTo, but is the same approach as DATE_TIME_COMPARATOR.

Params:

NameTypeAttributeDescription
other LocalDateTime

the other date-time to compare to, not null

Return:

boolean

true if this date-time is equal to the specified date-time

public isSupported(fieldOrUnit: TemporalField | TemporalUnit): boolean source

Checks if the specified field is supported.

This checks if this date-time can be queried for the specified field. If false, then calling the LocalDateTime.range range and LocalDateTime.get get methods will throw an exception.

  • ChronoField.YEAR
  • ChronoField.ERA

All other ChronoField instances will return false.

If the field is not a ChronoField, then the result of this method is obtained by invoking TemporalField.isSupportedBy passing this as the argument. Whether the field is supported is determined by the field.

Override:

Temporal#isSupported

Params:

NameTypeAttributeDescription
fieldOrUnit TemporalField | TemporalUnit

the field to check, null returns false

Return:

boolean

true if the field is supported on this date-time, false if not

public minusDays(days: number): LocalDateTime source

Returns a copy of this LocalDateTime with the specified period in days subtracted.

This method subtracts the specified amount from the days field incrementing the month and year fields as necessary to ensure the result remains valid. The result is only invalid if the maximum/minimum year is exceeded.

For example, 2009-01-01 minus one day would result in 2008-12-31.

This instance is immutable and unaffected by this method call.

Params:

NameTypeAttributeDescription
days number

the days to subtract, may be negative

Return:

LocalDateTime

a LocalDateTime based on this date-time with the days subtracted, not null

Throw:

DateTimeException

if the result exceeds the supported date range

public query(query: TemporalQuery): * source

Queries this date-time using the specified query.

This queries this date-time using the specified query strategy object. The TemporalQuery object defines the logic to be used to obtain the result. Read the documentation of the query to understand what the result of this method will be.

The result of this method is obtained by invoking the TemporalQuery#queryFrom method on the specified query passing this as the argument.

Override:

ChronoLocalDateTime#query

Params:

NameTypeAttributeDescription
query TemporalQuery

the query to invoke, not null

Return:

*

the query result, null may be returned (defined by the query)

Throw:

DateTimeException

public range(field: TemporalField): ValueRange source

Gets the range of valid values for the specified field.

The range object expresses the minimum and maximum valid values for a field. This date-time is used to enhance the accuracy of the returned range. If it is not possible to return the range, because the field is not supported or for some other reason, an exception is thrown.

If the field is a ChronoField then the query is implemented here. The supported fields (see isSupported) will return appropriate range instances. All other ChronoField instances will throw a DateTimeException.

If the field is not a ChronoField, then the result of this method is obtained by invoking TemporalField.rangeRefinedBy passing this as the argument. Whether the range can be obtained is determined by the field.

Override:

TemporalAccessor#range

Params:

NameTypeAttributeDescription
field TemporalField
  • nullable: false

the field to query the range for, not null

Return:

ValueRange

the range of valid values for the field, not null

Throw:

the time part of this date-time, not null

public toString(): string source

Outputs this date-time as a string, such as 2007-12-03T10:15:30.

The output will be one of the following ISO-8601 formats:

  • yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm
  • yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ss
  • yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ss.SSS
  • yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ss.SSSSSS
  • yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ss.SSSSSSSSS

Return:

string

a string representation of this date-time, not null

public truncatedTo(unit: TemporalUnit): LocalDateTime source

Returns a copy of this LocalDateTime with the time truncated.

Truncation returns a copy of the original date-time with fields smaller than the specified unit set to zero. For example, truncating with ChronoUnit#MINUTES will set the second-of-minute and nano-of-second field to zero.

The unit must have a duration (see TemporalUnit#getDuration) that divides into the length of a standard day without remainder. This includes all supplied time units on ChronoUnit and ChronoUnit#DAYS. Other units throw an exception.

This instance is immutable and unaffected by this method call.

Params:

NameTypeAttributeDescription
unit TemporalUnit

Return:

LocalDateTime

a LocalDateTime based on this date-time with the time truncated, not null

Throw:

DateTimeException

if unable to truncate

public until(endExclusive: Temporal, unit: TemporalUnit): number source

Calculates the period between this date-time and another date-time in terms of the specified unit.

This calculates the period between two date-times in terms of a single unit. The start and end points are this and the specified date-time. The result will be negative if the end is before the start. The Temporal passed to this method must be a LocalDateTime. For example, the period in days between two date-times can be calculated using startDateTime.until(endDateTime, DAYS).

The calculation returns a whole number, representing the number of complete units between the two date-times. For example, the period in months between 2012-06-15T00:00 and 2012-08-14T23:59 will only be one month as it is one minute short of two months.

This method operates in association with TemporalUnit#between. The result of this method is a long representing the amount of the specified unit. By contrast, the result of between is an object that can be used directly in addition/subtraction:

  long period = start.until(end, MONTHS);   // this method
  dateTime.plus(MONTHS.between(start, end));      // use in plus/minus

The calculation is implemented in this method for ChronoUnit. The units NANOS, MICROS, MILLIS, SECONDS, MINUTES, HOURS and HALF_DAYS, DAYS, WEEKS, MONTHS, YEARS, DECADES, CENTURIES, MILLENNIA and ERAS are supported. Other ChronoUnit values will throw an exception.

If the unit is not a ChronoUnit, then the result of this method is obtained by invoking TemporalUnit.between passing this as the first argument and the input temporal as the second argument.

This instance is immutable and unaffected by this method call.

Override:

Temporal#until

Params:

NameTypeAttributeDescription
endExclusive Temporal

the end date-time, which is converted to a LocalDateTime, not null
