    The main API for dates, times, instants, and durations.

    The main API for dates, times, instants, and durations.

    The classes defined here represent the principal date-time concepts, including instants, durations, dates, times, time-zones and periods. They are based on the ISO calendar system, which is the de facto world calendar following the proleptic Gregorian rules. All the classes are immutable and thread-safe.

    Each date time instance is composed of fields that are conveniently made available by the APIs. For lower level access to the fields refer to the org.threeten.bp.temporal package. Each class includes support for printing and parsing all manner of dates and times. Refer to the org.threeten.bp.format package for customization options.

    The org.threeten.bp.chrono package contains the calendar neutral API. This is intended for use by applications that need to use localized calendars. It is recommended that applications use the ISO-8601 dates and time classes from this package across system boundaries, such as to the database or across the network. The calendar neutral API should be reserved for interactions with users.

    Dates and Times

    org.threeten.bp.Instant is essentially a numeric timestamp. The current Instant can be retrieved from a org.threeten.bp.Clock. This is useful for logging and persistence of a point in time and has in the past been associated with storing the result from java.lang.System#currentTimeMillis().

    org.threeten.bp.LocalDate stores a date without a time. This stores a date like '2010-12-03' and could be used to store a birthday.

    org.threeten.bp.LocalTime stores a time without a date. This stores a time like '11:30' and could be used to store an opening or closing time.

    org.threeten.bp.LocalDateTime stores a date and time. This stores a date-time like '2010-12-03T11:30'.

    org.threeten.bp.OffsetTime stores a time and offset from UTC without a date. This stores a date like '11:30+01:00'. The ZoneOffset is of the form '+01:00'.

    org.threeten.bp.OffsetDateTime stores a date and time and offset from UTC. This stores a date-time like '2010-12-03T11:30+01:00'. This is sometimes found in XML messages and other forms of persistence, but contains less information than a full time-zone.

    org.threeten.bp.ZonedDateTime stores a date and time with a time-zone. This is useful if you want to perform accurate calculations of dates and times taking into account the org.threeten.bp.ZoneId, such as 'Europe/Paris'. Where possible, it is recommended to use a simpler class. The widespread use of time-zones tends to add considerable complexity to an application.

    Duration and Period

    Beyond dates and times, the API also allows the storage of period and durations of time. A org.threeten.bp.Duration is a simple measure of time along the time-line in nanoseconds. A org.threeten.bp.Period expresses an amount of time in units meaningful to humans, such as years or hours.

    Additional value types

    org.threeten.bp.Year stores a year on its own. This stores a single year in isolation, such as '2010'.

    org.threeten.bp.YearMonth stores a year and month without a day or time. This stores a year and month, such as '2010-12' and could be used for a credit card expiry.

    org.threeten.bp.MonthDay stores a month and day without a year or time. This stores a month and day-of-month, such as '--12-03' and could be used to store an annual event like a birthday without storing the year.

    org.threeten.bp.Month stores a month on its own. This stores a single month-of-year in isolation, such as 'DECEMBER'.

    org.threeten.bp.DayOfWeek stores a day-of-week on its own. This stores a single day-of-week in isolation, such as 'TUESDAY'.

  • package temporal

    Access to date and time using fields and units.

    Access to date and time using fields and units.

    This package expands on the base package to provide additional functionality for more powerful use cases. Support is included for:

    • Units of date-time, such as years, months, days and hours
    • Fields of date-time, such as month-of-year, day-of-week or hour-of-day
    • Date-time adjustment functions
    • Different definitions of weeks

    Fields and Units

    Dates and times are expressed in terms of fields and units. A unit is used to measure an amount of time, such as years, days or minutes. All units implement org.threeten.bp.temporal.TemporalUnit. The set of well known units is defined in org.threeten.bp.temporal.ChronoUnit, for example, org.threeten.bp.temporal.ChronoUnit#DAYS. The unit interface is designed to allow applications to add their own units.

    A field is used to express part of a larger date-time, such as year, month-of-year or second-of-minute. All fields implement org.threeten.bp.temporal.TemporalField. The set of well known fields are defined in org.threeten.bp.temporal.ChronoField, for example, org.threeten.bp.temporal.ChronoField#HOUR_OF_DAY. An additional fields are defined by org.threeten.bp.temporal.JulianFields. The field interface is designed to allow applications to add their own fields.

    This package provides tools that allow the units and fields of date and time to be accessed in a general way most suited for frameworks. org.threeten.bp.temporal.Temporal provides the abstraction for date time types that support fields. Its methods support getting the value of a field, creating a new date time with the value of a field modified, and extracting another date time type, typically used to extract the offset or time-zone.

    One use of fields in application code is to retrieve fields for which there is no convenience method. For example, getting the day-of-month is common enough that there is a method on LocalDate called getDayOfMonth(). However for more unusual fields it is necessary to use the field. For example, date.get(ChronoField.ALIGNED_WEEK_OF_MONTH). The fields also provide access to the range of valid values.

    Adjustment

    A key part of the date-time problem space is adjusting a date to a new, related value, such as the "last day of the month", or "next Wednesday". These are modeled as functions that adjust a base date-time. The functions implement org.threeten.bp.temporal.TemporalAdjuster and operate on org.threeten.bp.temporal.Temporal. A set of common functions are provided in org.threeten.bp.temporal.TemporalAdjusters. For example, to find the first occurrence of a day-of-week after a given date, use org.threeten.bp.temporal.TemporalAdjusters#next(DayOfWeek), such as date.with(next(MONDAY)).

    Weeks

    Different locales have different definitions of the week. For example, in Europe the week typically starts on a Monday, while in the US it starts on a Sunday. The org.threeten.bp.temporal.WeekFields class models this distinction.

    The ISO calendar system defines an additional week-based division of years. This defines a year based on whole Monday to Monday weeks. This is modeled in org.threeten.bp.temporal.IsoFields.

TemporalAccessor

trait TemporalAccessor extends AnyRef

Framework-level interface defining read-only access to a temporal object, such as a date, time, offset or some combination of these.

This is the base interface type for date, time and offset objects. It is implemented by those classes that can provide information as fields or queries.

Most date and time information can be represented as a number. These are modeled using TemporalField with the number held using a long to handle large values. Year, month and day-of-month are simple examples of fields, but they also include instant and offsets. See ChronoField for the standard set of fields.

Two pieces of date/time information cannot be represented by numbers, the chronology and the time-zone. These can be accessed via #query(TemporalQuery) queries using the static methods defined on TemporalQueries.

A sub-interface, Temporal, extends this definition to one that also supports adjustment and manipulation on more complete temporal objects.

This interface is a framework-level interface that should not be widely used in application code. Instead, applications should create and pass around instances of concrete types, such as LocalDate. There are many reasons for this, part of which is that implementations of this interface may be in calendar systems other than ISO. See ChronoLocalDate for a fuller discussion of the issues.

Specification for implementors

This interface places no restrictions on the mutability of implementations, however immutability is strongly recommended.

Abstract Value Members

  1. abstract def getLong(field: TemporalField): Long

    Gets the value of the specified field as a long.

    Gets the value of the specified field as a long.

    This queries the date-time for the value for the specified field. The returned value may be outside the valid range of values for the field. If the date-time cannot return the value, because the field is unsupported or for some other reason, an exception will be thrown.

    Specification for implementors

    Implementations must check and handle all fields defined in ChronoField. If the field is supported, then the value of the field must be returned. If unsupported, then a DateTimeException must be thrown.

    If the field is not a ChronoField, then the result of this method is obtained by invoking TemporalField.getFrom(TemporalAccessor) passing this as the argument.

    Implementations must not alter either this object.

    field

    the field to get, not null

    returns

    the value for the field

    Exceptions thrown

    DateTimeException if a value for the field cannot be obtained

  2. abstract def isSupported(field: TemporalField): Boolean

    Checks if the specified field is supported.

    Checks if the specified field is supported.

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

    Specification for implementors

    Implementations must check and handle all fields defined in ChronoField. If the field is supported, then true is returned, otherwise false

    If the field is not a ChronoField, then the result of this method is obtained by invoking TemporalField.isSupportedBy(TemporalAccessor) passing this as the argument.

    Implementations must not alter this object.

    field

    the field to check, null returns false

    returns

    true if this date-time can be queried for the field, false if not

  9. def get(field: TemporalField): Int

    Gets the value of the specified field as an int.

    Gets the value of the specified field as an int.

    This queries the 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 the date-time cannot return the value, because the field is unsupported or for some other reason, an exception will be thrown.

    Specification for implementors

    Implementations must check and handle all fields defined in ChronoField. If the field is supported and has an int range, then the value of the field must be returned. If unsupported, then a DateTimeException must be thrown.

    If the field is not a ChronoField, then the result of this method is obtained by invoking TemporalField.getFrom(TemporalAccessor) passing this as the argument.

    Implementations must not alter either this object.

    field

    the field to get, not null

    returns

    the value for the field, within the valid range of values

    Exceptions thrown

    ArithmeticException if numeric overflow occurs

  16. def query[R](query: TemporalQuery[R]): R

    Queries this date-time.

    Queries this date-time.

    This queries this date-time using the specified query strategy object.

    Queries are a key tool for extracting information from date-times. They exists to externalize the process of querying, permitting different approaches, as per the strategy design pattern. Examples might be a query that checks if the date is the day before February 29th in a leap year, or calculates the number of days to your next birthday.

    The most common query implementations are method references, such as LocalDate::from and ZoneId::from. Further implementations are on TemporalQueries. Queries may also be defined by applications.

    Specification for implementors

    Implementations of this method must behave as follows: 

     public <R> R query(TemporalQuery<R> type) { // only include an if statement
if the implementation can return it if (query == TemporalQueries.zoneId()) return // the ZoneId
if (query == TemporalQueries.chronology()) return // the Chrono if (query ==
TemporalQueries.precision()) return // the precision // call default method return
super.query(query); }

    R

    the type of the result

    query

    the query to invoke, not null

    returns

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

    Exceptions thrown

    ArithmeticException if numeric overflow occurs

    DateTimeException if unable to query

  17. def range(field: TemporalField): ValueRange

    Gets the range of valid values for the specified field.

    Gets the range of valid values for the specified field.

    All fields can be expressed as a long integer. This method returns an object that describes the valid range for that value. The value of this temporal object is used to enhance the accuracy of the returned range. If the date-time cannot return the range, because the field is unsupported or for some other reason, an exception will be thrown.

    Note that the result only describes the minimum and maximum valid values and it is important not to read too much into them. For example, there could be values within the range that are invalid for the field.

    Specification for implementors

    Implementations must check and handle all fields defined in ChronoField. If the field is supported, then the range of the field must be returned. If unsupported, then a DateTimeException must be thrown.

    If the field is not a ChronoField, then the result of this method is obtained by invoking TemporalField.rangeRefinedBy(TemporalAccessorl) passing this as the argument.

    Implementations must not alter either this object.

    field

    the field to query the range for, not null

    returns

    the range of valid values for the field, not null

    Exceptions thrown

    DateTimeException if the range for the field cannot be obtained
