Class DateTimeFormatterJalali

java.lang.Object
org.bardframework.time.format.DateTimeFormatterJalali
public final class DateTimeFormatterJalali extends Object
Formatter for printing and parsing date-time objects.

This class provides the main application entry point for printing and parsing and provides common implementations of DateTimeFormatter:

  • Using predefined constants, such as ISO_LOCAL_DATE
  • Using pattern letters, such as uuuu-MMM-dd
  • Using localized styles, such as long or medium

More complex formatters are provided by DateTimeFormatterJalaliBuilder.

The main date-time classes provide two methods - one for formatting, format(DateTimeFormatter formatter), and one for parsing, parse(CharSequence text, DateTimeFormatterJalali formatter).

For example: 

  LocalDate date = LocalDate.now();
  String text = date.format(formatter);
  LocalDate parsedDate = LocalDate.parse(text, formatter);

In addition to the format, formatters can be created with desired Locale, Chronology, ZoneId, and DecimalStyle.

The withLocale method returns a new formatter that overrides the locale. The locale affects some aspects of formatting and parsing

The withChronology method returns a new formatter that overrides the chronology. If overridden, the date-time value is converted to the chronology before formatting. During parsing the date-time value is converted to the chronology before it is returned.

The withZone method returns a new formatter that overrides the zone. If overridden, the date-time value is converted to a ZonedDateTime with the requested ZoneId before formatting. During parsing the ZoneId is applied before the value is returned.

The withDecimalStyle method returns a new formatter that overrides the DecimalStyle. The DecimalStyle symbols are used for formatting and parsing.

Patterns are based on a simple sequence of letters and symbols. "d MMM uuuu" will format 2011-12-03 as '3 Dec 2011'. A formatter created from a pattern can be used as many times as necessary, it is immutable and is thread-safe.

For example: 

  LocalDate date = LocalDate.now();
  DateTimeFormatterJalali formatter = DateTimeFormatter.ofPattern("yyyy MM dd");
  String text = date.format(formatter);
  LocalDate parsedDate = LocalDate.parse(text, formatter);

All letters 'A' to 'Z' and 'a' to 'z' are reserved as pattern letters. The following pattern letters are defined:

The count of pattern letters determines the format.

Text: The text style is determined based on the number of pattern letters used. Less than 4 pattern letters will use the short form. Exactly 4 pattern letters will use the full form. Exactly 5 pattern letters will use the narrow form. Pattern letters 'L', 'c', and 'q' specify the stand-alone form of the text styles.

Number: If the count of letters is one, then the value is output using the minimum number of digits and without padding. Otherwise, the count of digits is used as the width of the output field, with the value zero-padded as necessary. The following pattern letters have constraints on the count of letters. Only one letter of 'c' and 'F' can be specified. Up to two letters of 'd', 'H', 'h', 'K', 'k', 'm', and 's' can be specified. Up to three letters of 'D' can be specified.

Number/Text: If the count of pattern letters is 3 or greater, use the Text rules above. Otherwise use the Number rules above.

Fraction: Outputs the nano-of-second field as a fraction-of-second. The nano-of-second value has nine digits, thus the count of pattern letters is from 1 to 9. If it is less than 9, then the nano-of-second value is truncated, with only the most significant digits being output.

Year: The count of letters determines the minimum field width below which padding is used. If the count of letters is two, then a reduced two digit form is used. For printing, this outputs the rightmost two digits. For parsing, this will parse using the base value of 2000, resulting in a year within the range 2000 to 2099 inclusive. If the count of letters is less than four (but not two), then the sign is only output for negative years as per SignStyle.NORMAL. Otherwise, the sign is output if the pad width is exceeded, as per SignStyle.EXCEEDS_PAD.

ZoneId: This outputs the time-zone ID, such as 'Europe/Paris'. If the count of letters is two, then the time-zone ID is output. Any other count of letters throws IllegalArgumentException.

Zone names: This outputs the display name of the time-zone ID. If the count of letters is one, two or three, then the short name is output. If the count of letters is four, then the full name is output. Five or more letters throws IllegalArgumentException.

Offset X and x: This formats the offset based on the number of pattern letters. One letter outputs just the hour, such as '+01', unless the minute is non-zero in which case the minute is also output, such as '+0130'. Two letters outputs the hour and minute, without a colon, such as '+0130'. Three letters outputs the hour and minute, with a colon, such as '+01:30'. Four letters outputs the hour and minute and optional second, without a colon, such as '+013015'. Five letters outputs the hour and minute and optional second, with a colon, such as '+01:30:15'. Six or more letters throws IllegalArgumentException. Pattern letter 'X' (upper case) will output 'Z' when the offset to be output would be zero, whereas pattern letter 'x' (lower case) will output '+00', '+0000', or '+00:00'.

Offset O: This formats the localized offset based on the number of pattern letters. One letter outputs the short form of the localized offset, which is localized offset text, such as 'GMT', with hour without leading zero, optional 2-digit minute and second if non-zero, and colon, for example 'GMT+8'. Four letters outputs the full form, which is localized offset text, such as 'GMT, with 2-digit hour and minute field, optional second field if non-zero, and colon, for example 'GMT+08:00'. Any other count of letters throws IllegalArgumentException.

Offset Z: This formats the offset based on the number of pattern letters. One, two or three letters outputs the hour and minute, without a colon, such as '+0130'. The output will be '+0000' when the offset is zero. Four letters outputs the full form of localized offset, equivalent to four letters of Offset-O. The output will be the corresponding localized offset text if the offset is zero. Five letters outputs the hour, minute, with optional second if non-zero, with colon. It outputs 'Z' if the offset is zero. Six or more letters throws IllegalArgumentException.

Optional section: The optional section markers work exactly like calling DateTimeFormatterBuilderJalali.optionalStart() and DateTimeFormatterBuilderJalali.optionalEnd().

Pad modifier: Modifies the pattern that immediately follows to be padded with spaces. The pad width is determined by the number of pattern letters. This is the same as calling DateTimeFormatterBuilderJalali.padNext(int).

For example, 'ppH' outputs the hour-of-day padded on the left with spaces to a width of 2.

Any unrecognized letter is an error. Any non-letter character, other than '[', ']', '{', '}', '#' and the single quote will be output directly. Despite this, it is recommended to use single quotes around all characters that you want to output directly to ensure that future changes do not break your application.

Parsing is implemented as a two-phase operation. First, the text is parsed using the layout defined by the formatter, producing a Map of field to value, a ZoneId and a Chronology. Second, the parsed data is resolved, by validating, combining and simplifying the various fields into more useful ones.

Five parsing methods are supplied by this class. Four of these perform both the parse and resolve phases.

The resolve phase is controlled by two parameters, set on this class.

For example, if the formatter has parsed a year, month, day-of-month and day-of-year, then there are two approaches to resolve a date: (year + month + day-of-month) and (year + day-of-year). The resolver fields allows one of the two approaches to be selected. If no resolver fields are set then both approaches must result in the same date.

Resolving separate fields to form a complete date and time is a complex process with behaviour distributed across a number of classes. It follows these steps:

  1. The chronology is determined. The chronology of the result is either the chronology that was parsed, or if no chronology was parsed, it is the chronology set on this class, or if that is null, it is IsoChronology.
  2. The ChronoField date fields are resolved. This is achieved using Chronology.resolveDate(Map, ResolverStyle). Documentation about field resolution is located in the implementation of Chronology.
  3. The ChronoField time fields are resolved. This is documented on ChronoField and is the same for all chronologies.
  4. Any fields that are not ChronoField are processed. This is achieved using TemporalField.resolve(Map, TemporalAccessor, ResolverStyle). Documentation about field resolution is located in the implementation of TemporalField.
  5. The ChronoField date and time fields are re-resolved. This allows fields in step four to produce ChronoField values and have them be processed into dates and times.
  6. A LocalTime is formed if there is at least an hour-of-day available. This involves providing default values for minute, second and fraction of second.
  7. Any remaining unresolved fields are cross-checked against any date and/or time that was resolved. Thus, an earlier stage would resolve (year + month + day-of-month) to a date, and this stage would check that day-of-week was valid for the date.

This class is immutable and thread-safe.

      The ISO date formatter that formats or parses a date without an offset, such as '2011-12-03'.

      This returns an immutable formatter capable of formatting and parsing the ISO-8601 extended local date format. The format consists of:

      • Four digits or more for the year. Years in the range 0000 to 9999 will be pre-padded by zero to ensure four digits. Years outside that range will have a prefixed positive or negative symbol.
      • A dash
      • Two digits for the month-of-year. This is pre-padded by zero to ensure two digits.
      • A dash
      • Two digits for the day-of-month. This is pre-padded by zero to ensure two digits.

      • Four digits or more for the week-based-year. Years in the range 0000 to 9999 will be pre-padded by zero to ensure four digits. Years outside that range will have a prefixed positive or negative symbol.
      • A dash
      • The letter 'W'. Parsing is case insensitive.
      • Two digits for the week-of-week-based-year. This is pre-padded by zero to ensure three digits.
      • A dash
      • One digit for the day-of-week. The value run from Monday (1) to Sunday (7).
      • If the offset is not available to format or parse then the format is complete.
      • The offset ID. If the offset has seconds then they will be handled even though this is not part of the ISO-8601 standard. Parsing is case insensitive.

      The returned formatter has a chronology of ISO set to ensure dates in other calendar systems are correctly converted. It has no override zone and uses the STRICT resolver style.

    • ISO_INSTANT

      public static final DateTimeFormatterJalali ISO_INSTANT
      The ISO instant formatter that formats or parses an instant in UTC, such as '2011-12-03T10:15:30Z'.

      This returns an immutable formatter capable of formatting and parsing the ISO-8601 instant format. When formatting, the second-of-minute is always output. The nano-of-second outputs zero, three, six or nine digits digits as necessary. When parsing, time to at least the seconds field is required. Fractional seconds from zero to nine are parsed. The localized decimal style is not used.

      This is a special case formatter intended to allow a human readable form of an Instant. The Instant class is designed to only represent a point in time and internally stores a value in nanoseconds from a fixed epoch of 1970-01-01Z. As such, an Instant cannot be formatted as a date or time without providing some form of time-zone. This formatter allows the Instant to be formatted, by providing a suitable conversion using ZoneOffset.UTC.

      The format consists of:

      The returned formatter has no override chronology or zone. It uses the STRICT resolver style.

    • BASIC_ISO_DATE

      public static final DateTimeFormatterJalali BASIC_ISO_DATE
      The ISO date formatter that formats or parses a date without an offset, such as '20111203'.

      This returns an immutable formatter capable of formatting and parsing the ISO-8601 basic local date format. The format consists of:

      • Four digits for the year. Only years in the range 0000 to 9999 are supported.
      • Two digits for the month-of-year. This is pre-padded by zero to ensure two digits.
      • Two digits for the day-of-month. This is pre-padded by zero to ensure two digits.
      • If the offset is not available to format or parse then the format is complete.
      • The offset ID without colons. If the offset has seconds then they will be handled even though this is not part of the ISO-8601 standard. Parsing is case insensitive.

      The returned formatter has a chronology of ISO set to ensure dates in other calendar systems are correctly converted. It has no override zone and uses the STRICT resolver style.

  • Method Details

    • ofPattern

      public static DateTimeFormatterJalali ofPattern(String pattern)
      Creates a formatter using the specified pattern.

      This method will create a formatter based on a simple pattern of letters and symbols as described in the class documentation. For example, d MMM uuuu will format 2011-12-03 as '3 Dec 2011'.

      The formatter will use the default FORMAT locale. This can be changed using withLocale(Locale) on the returned formatter

      The returned formatter has no override chronology or zone. It uses SMART resolver style.

      Parameters:
      pattern - the pattern to use, not null
      Returns:
      the formatter based on the pattern, not null
      Throws:
      IllegalArgumentException - if the pattern is invalid

    • parsedLeapSecond

      public static TemporalQuery<Boolean> parsedLeapSecond()
      A query that provides access to whether a leap-second was parsed.

      This returns a singleton query that provides access to additional information from the parse. The query always returns a non-null boolean, true if parsing saw a leap-second, false if not.

      Instant parsing handles the special "leap second" time of '23:59:60'. Leap seconds occur at '23:59:60' in the UTC time-zone, but at other local times in different time-zones. To avoid this potential ambiguity, the handling of leap-seconds is limited to DateTimeFormatterBuilderJalali.appendInstant(), as that method always parses the instant with the UTC zone offset.

      If the time '23:59:60' is received, then a simple conversion is applied, replacing the second-of-minute of 60 with 59. This query can be used on the parse result to determine if the leap-second adjustment was made. The query will return true if it did adjust to remove the leap-second, and false if not. Note that applying a leap-second smoothing mechanism, such as UTC-SLS, is the responsibility of the application, as follows: 

        TemporalAccessor parsed = formatter.parse(str);
  Instant instant = parsed.query(Instant::from);
  if (parsed.query(DateTimeFormatter.parsedLeapSecond())) {
    // validate leap-second is correct and apply correct smoothing
  }
      Returns:
      a query that provides access to whether a leap-second was parsed

    • getDayOfWeek

      public static Map<Long,String> getDayOfWeek(Locale locale)

    • getAmPm

      public static Map<Long,String> getAmPm(Locale locale)

    • getMonthOfYear

      public static Map<Long,String> getMonthOfYear(Locale locale)

    • getLocale

      public Locale getLocale()
      Gets the locale to be used during formatting.

      This is used to lookup any part of the formatter needing specific localization, such as the text or localized pattern.

      Returns:
      the locale of this formatter, not null

    • withLocale

      public DateTimeFormatterJalali withLocale(Locale locale)
      Returns a copy of this formatter with a new locale.

      This is used to lookup any part of the formatter needing specific localization, such as the text or localized pattern.

      This instance is immutable and unaffected by this method call.

      Parameters:
      locale - the new locale, not null
      Returns:
      a formatter based on this formatter with the requested locale, not null

    • getDecimalStyle

      public org.bardframework.time.format.DecimalStyle getDecimalStyle()
      Gets the DecimalStyle to be used during formatting.
      Returns:
      the locale of this formatter, not null

    • withDecimalStyle

      public DateTimeFormatterJalali withDecimalStyle(org.bardframework.time.format.DecimalStyle decimalStyle)
      Returns a copy of this formatter with a new DecimalStyle.

      This instance is immutable and unaffected by this method call.

      Parameters:
      decimalStyle - the new DecimalStyle, not null
      Returns:
      a formatter based on this formatter with the requested DecimalStyle, not null

    • getChronology

      public Chronology getChronology()
      Gets the overriding chronology to be used during formatting.

      This returns the override chronology, used to convert dates. By default, a formatter has no override chronology, returning null. See withChronology(Chronology) for more details on overriding.

      Returns:
      the override chronology of this formatter, null if no override

    • withChronology

      public DateTimeFormatterJalali withChronology(Chronology chrono)
      Returns a copy of this formatter with a new override chronology.

      This returns a formatter with similar state to this formatter but with the override chronology set. By default, a formatter has no override chronology, returning null.

      If an override is added, then any date that is formatted or parsed will be affected.

      When formatting, if the temporal object contains a date, then it will be converted to a date in the override chronology. Whether the temporal contains a date is determined by querying the EPOCH_DAY field. Any time or zone will be retained unaltered unless overridden.

      If the temporal object does not contain a date, but does contain one or more ChronoField date fields, then a DateTimeException is thrown. In all other cases, the override chronology is added to the temporal, replacing any previous chronology, but without changing the date/time.

      When parsing, there are two distinct cases to consider. If a chronology has been parsed directly from the text, perhaps because DateTimeFormatterBuilderJalali.appendChronologyId() was used, then this override chronology has no effect. If no zone has been parsed, then this override chronology will be used to interpret the ChronoField values into a date according to the date resolving rules of the chronology.

      This instance is immutable and unaffected by this method call.

      Parameters:
      chrono - the new chronology, null if no override
      Returns:
      a formatter based on this formatter with the requested override chronology, not null

    • getZone

      public ZoneId getZone()
      Gets the overriding zone to be used during formatting.

      This returns the override zone, used to convert instants. By default, a formatter has no override zone, returning null. See withZone(ZoneId) for more details on overriding.

      Returns:
      the override zone of this formatter, null if no override

    • withZone

      public DateTimeFormatterJalali withZone(ZoneId zone)
      Returns a copy of this formatter with a new override zone.

      This returns a formatter with similar state to this formatter but with the override zone set. By default, a formatter has no override zone, returning null.

      If an override is added, then any instant that is formatted or parsed will be affected.

      When formatting, if the temporal object contains an instant, then it will be converted to a zoned date-time using the override zone. Whether the temporal is an instant is determined by querying the INSTANT_SECONDS field. If the input has a chronology then it will be retained unless overridden. If the input does not have a chronology, such as Instant, then the ISO chronology will be used.

      If the temporal object does not contain an instant, but does contain an offset then an additional check is made. If the normalized override zone is an offset that differs from the offset of the temporal, then a DateTimeException is thrown. In all other cases, the override zone is added to the temporal, replacing any previous zone, but without changing the date/time.

      When parsing, there are two distinct cases to consider. If a zone has been parsed directly from the text, perhaps because DateTimeFormatterBuilderJalali.appendZoneId() was used, then this override zone has no effect. If no zone has been parsed, then this override zone will be included in the result of the parse where it can be used to build instants and date-times.

      This instance is immutable and unaffected by this method call.

      Parameters:
      zone - the new override zone, null if no override
      Returns:
      a formatter based on this formatter with the requested override zone, not null

    • getResolverStyle

      public ResolverStyle getResolverStyle()
      Gets the resolver style to use during parsing.

      This returns the resolver style, used during the second phase of parsing when fields are resolved into dates and times. By default, a formatter has the SMART resolver style.

      Returns:
      the resolver style of this formatter, not null

    • format

      public String format(TemporalAccessor temporal)
      Formats a date-time object using this formatter.

      This formats the date-time to a String using the rules of the formatter.

      Parameters:
      temporal - the temporal object to format, not null
      Returns:
      the formatted string, not null
      Throws:
      DateTimeException - if an error occurs during formatting

    • formatTo

      public void formatTo(TemporalAccessor temporal, Appendable appendable)
      Formats a date-time object to an Appendable using this formatter.

      This outputs the formatted date-time to the specified destination. Appendable is a general purpose interface that is implemented by all key character output classes including StringBuffer, StringBuilder, PrintStream and Writer.

      Although Appendable methods throw an IOException, this method does not. Instead, any IOException is wrapped in a runtime exception.

      Parameters:
      temporal - the temporal object to format, not null
      appendable - the appendable to format to, not null
      Throws:
      DateTimeException - if an error occurs during formatting

    • parse

      public TemporalAccessor parse(CharSequence text)
      Fully parses the text producing a temporal object.

      This parses the entire text producing a temporal object. It is typically more useful to use parse(CharSequence, TemporalQuery). The result of this method is TemporalAccessor which has been resolved, applying basic validation checks to help ensure a valid date-time.

      If the parse completes without reading the entire length of the text, or a problem occurs during parsing or merging, then an exception is thrown.

      Parameters:
      text - the text to parse, not null
      Returns:
      the parsed temporal object, not null
      Throws:
      DateTimeParseException - if unable to parse the requested result

    • parse

      public TemporalAccessor parse(CharSequence text, ParsePosition position)
      Parses the text using this formatter, providing control over the text position.

      This parses the text without requiring the parse to start from the beginning of the string or finish at the end. The result of this method is TemporalAccessor which has been resolved, applying basic validation checks to help ensure a valid date-time.

      The text will be parsed from the specified start ParsePosition. The entire length of the text does not have to be parsed, the ParsePosition will be updated with the index at the end of parsing.

      The operation of this method is slightly different to similar methods using ParsePosition on java.text.Format. That class will return errors using the error index on the ParsePosition. By contrast, this method will throw a DateTimeParseException if an error occurs, with the exception containing the error index. This change in behavior is necessary due to the increased complexity of parsing and resolving dates/times in this API.

      If the formatter parses the same field more than once with different values, the result will be an error.

      Parameters:
      text - the text to parse, not null
      position - the position to parse from, updated with length parsed and the index of any error, not null
      Returns:
      the parsed temporal object, not null
      Throws:
      DateTimeParseException - if unable to parse the requested result
      IndexOutOfBoundsException - if the position is invalid

    • parse

      public <T> T parse(CharSequence text, TemporalQuery<T> query)
      Fully parses the text producing an object of the specified type.

      Most applications should use this method for parsing. It parses the entire text to produce the required date-time. The query is typically a method reference to a from(TemporalAccessor) method. For example: 

        LocalDateTime dt = parser.parse(str, LocalDateTime::from);
      If the parse completes without reading the entire length of the text, or a problem occurs during parsing or merging, then an exception is thrown.
      Type Parameters:
      T - the type of the parsed date-time
      Parameters:
      text - the text to parse, not null
      query - the query defining the type to parse to, not null
      Returns:
      the parsed date-time, not null
      Throws:
      DateTimeParseException - if unable to parse the requested result

    • toString

      public String toString()
      Returns a description of the underlying formatters.
      Overrides:
      toString in class Object
      Returns:
      a description of this formatter, not null
