It is too much confusing and i have pasted my code below.
I have a eopoc time.
// Function that converts eopc to NSString
NSString * ConvertEpocToDateStr(NSString *epoc)
{
NSString *res;
NSTimeInterval sec = [epoc doubleValue]/1000.0;
NSDate *eDate = [[NSDate alloc] initWithTimeIntervalSince1970:sec];
NSDateFormatter *dateFormatter = [[NSDateFormatter alloc] init];
[dateFormatter setDateFormat:#"MM/dd hh:mm a"];
dateFormatter.timeZone = [NSTimeZone timeZoneWithAbbreviation:#"IST"];
NSLog (#" Time in your Zone is %# ", [[dateFormatter timeZone] description]);
res = [dateFormatter stringFromDate:eDate];
return res;
}
// From NSString to back NSDate.
NSDate * backToDate (NSString * dInStr )
{
NSDateFormatter *dFormatter = [[NSDateFormatter alloc] init];
[dFormatter setDateFormat:#"MM/dd hh:mm a"];
dFormatter.timeZone = [NSTimeZone timeZoneWithAbbreviation:#"IST"];
NSDate *FromString = [dFormatter dateFromString:dInStr];
return dFromString;
}
And, I tried to print below .
epoc -> 1397600251077
ConvertEpocToDateStr -> 04/16 03:47 am
backToDate -> 2000-04-15 22:17:00 +0000
Both should be same right? I am not sure where/what i am missing?
Of course, you get the same dates. IST is 5.30 h ahead of GMT+0.
Since you drop out year in your direct formatter and use the date time string without the year
by default it is set to 2000.
Evidently, 2000-04-15 22:17:00 +0000 is the same as 2000-04-16 03:47:00 +0530.

I need seven continuous dates' string from a single NSDate. This is what I did,
for (int i = 0; i < 7; i++) {
NSString *dayOfWeek = [self returnStringFromDate:currentDate withStringFOrmat:#"dd - EEEE"];
[daysOfWeekArray addObject:[dayOfWeek uppercaseString]];
currentDate = [currentDate dateByAddingTimeInterval:60 * 60 * 24];
}
- (NSString *)returnStringFromDate:(NSDate *)date
withStringFOrmat:(NSString *)stringFOrmat {
NSDateFormatter *dateFormatter = [[NSDateFormatter alloc] init];
NSLocale *locale = [[NSLocale alloc] initWithLocaleIdentifier:#"en_US_POSIX"];
[dateFormatter setLocale:locale];
[dateFormatter setDateFormat:stringFOrmat];
NSString *dateString = [dateFormatter stringFromDate:date];
return dateString;
}
I'm from India, If I have my own time zone(Indian standard time) and passing the currentDate as 01/sun/nov/2015 - it's logging as 2015-10-31 18:30:00 +0000, the above code works correctly. If I change my time zone to US time zone(CST), current date is logging as 2015-11-01 05:00:00 +0000, it's returning one date before for the string. If I try
NSDateFormatter *dateFormatter = [[NSDateFormatter alloc] init];
[dateFormatter setDateFormat:stringFOrmat];
[dateFormatter setTimeZone:[NSTimeZone timeZoneWithAbbreviation:#"UTC"]];
NSString *dateString = [dateFormatter stringFromDate:date];
it's working,
but how can I identify which time time zone am I now?
Is it possible to use some common code to find the correct date string from the current time zone of the device?
I have date in object "start_time"(2000-12-11T00:00:00+0000), but i need to print date and time separate to textfields. But when i tried with this code i got null value on console
__block NSDictionary *events = [[e.response objectForKey:#"events"] objectAtIndex:0];
[[NSOperationQueue mainQueue] addOperationWithBlock:^{
// NSDate *dates = [events objectForKey:#"start_time"];
// NSDate *localDate = [NSDate date];
NSDateFormatter *dateFormatter = [[[NSDateFormatter alloc]init] init];
dateFormatter.dateFormat = #"MMMM dd yyyy";
NSString *dateString = [dateFormatter stringFromDate: [events objectForKey:#"start_time"]];
NSDateFormatter *timeFormatter = [[[NSDateFormatter alloc] init] init];
timeFormatter.dateFormat = #"HH:mm:ss ZZZZ";
NSString *timeString = [timeFormatter stringFromDate: [events objectForKey:#"start_time"]];
NSLog(#"This is time------------------------------: %#",dateString); // null returns
//
This is how i store date into "start_time" by textfields
Blockquote
NSString *datestring = self.date.text;
NSString *timestring = self.time.text;
NSString *combined = [NSString stringWithFormat:#"%# %#", datestring, timestring];
NSDateFormatter *dateFormat = [[NSDateFormatter alloc] init];
[dateFormat setTimeZone:[NSTimeZone timeZoneForSecondsFromGMT:05.30]];
[dateFormat setDateFormat:#"MM dd yyyy HH:mm a"];
NSDate *date = [dateFormat dateFromString:combined];
NSDictionary *data = #{
#"start_time":[NSString stringWithFormat:#"%#",date]};
I think that became null Because you upcoming date from event that is different format and you are first setting format is different.
dateFormatter.dateFormat = #"MMMM dd yyyy";
that have to:
dateFormatter.dateFormat = #"yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ssZ";
You have to set first current date format then you can change it your want date.
Your setting an incorrect format for the date,
Try the below, this will work
//"myDate" variable is an example string, you can change it with "[events objectForKey:#"start_time"]"
NSString *myDate = #"2000-12-11T00:00:00 +0000";
NSDateFormatter *dateFormatter = [[[NSDateFormatter alloc]init] init];
dateFormatter.dateFormat = #"yyyy-dd-mm'T'HH:mm:ss Z";
NSDate *myDateObject = [dateFormatter dateFromString:myDate]; //Now you have the date object that return the correct value
//FOR date
[dateFormatter setDateFormat:#"yyyy-dd-mm"];
NSString *OnlyDate = [dateFormatter stringFromDate:myDateObject];
//For Time
[dateFormatter setDateFormat:#"HH:mm:ss Z"];
NSString *OnlyTime = [dateFormatter stringFromDate:myDateObject];
NSLog(#"Date is %# and Time is %#",OnlyDate,OnlyTime);
UPDATE
In your case, if [events objectForKey:#"start_time"] is a NSDATE object then try the following
NSDateFormatter *dateFormatter = [[[NSDateFormatter alloc]init] init];
dateFormatter.dateFormat = #"yyyy-dd-mm'T'HH:mm:ss Z";
NSDate *myDateObject = [dateFormatter dateFromString:[events objectForKey:#"start_time"]]; //Now you have the date object that return the correct value
//FOR date
[dateFormatter setDateFormat:#"yyyy-dd-mm"];
NSString *OnlyDate = [dateFormatter stringFromDate:myDateObject];
//For Time
[dateFormatter setDateFormat:#"HH:mm:ss Z"];
NSString *OnlyTime = [dateFormatter stringFromDate:myDateObject];
NSLog(#"Date is %# and Time is %#",OnlyDate,OnlyTime);
Hope this helps.
How do you convert any given date to milliseconds? For example, 2014-01-23 to timestamp conversion.
NSDate *date = [dateFormatter dateFromString:#"2014-01-23"];
NSLog(#"date=%#",date);
NSTimeInterval interval = [date timeIntervalSince1970];
NSLog(#"interval=%f",interval);
NSDate *methodStart = [NSDate dateWithTimeIntervalSince1970:interval];
[dateFormatter setDateFormat:#"yyyy/mm/dd "];
NSLog(#"result: %#", [dateFormatter stringFromDate:methodStart]);
Output result: 1970/30/01
Swift
Convert the current date/time to a timestamp:
// current date and time
let someDate = Date()
// time interval since 1970
let myTimeStamp = someDate.timeIntervalSince1970

How to get the current time as datetime
Have it a try. "mm" stands for minute while "MM" stands for month.
NSDateFormatter * dateFormatter = [[NSDateFormatter alloc] init] ;
[dateFormatter setDateFormat:#"yyyy-MM-dd"] ;
NSDate *date = [dateFormatter dateFromString:#"2014-01-23"] ;
NSLog(#"date=%#",date) ;
NSTimeInterval interval = [date timeIntervalSince1970] ;
NSLog(#"interval=%f",interval) ;
NSDate *methodStart = [NSDate dateWithTimeIntervalSince1970:interval] ;
[dateFormatter setDateFormat:#"yyyy/MM/dd "] ;
NSLog(#"result: %#", [dateFormatter stringFromDate:methodStart]) ;
NSTimeinterval is really a double, being seconds since a particular date (in your case, the start of 1970)
NOTE :- UNIX Timestamp format contains 13 Digits so we need a 1000 multiplication with the result.
And the timestamp must be UTC ZONE not our local Time Zone.

NSDateFormatter *objDateformat = [[NSDateFormatter alloc] init];
[objDateformat setDateFormat:#"yyyy-MM-dd"];
NSString *strUTCTime = [self GetUTCDateTimeFromLocalTime:#"2014-01-23"];
NSDate *objUTCDate = [objDateformat dateFromString:strUTCTime];
long long milliseconds = (long long)([objUTCDate timeIntervalSince1970] * 1000.0);
NSLog(#"Local Time = %#---- UTC = %# ----- TimeSatmp = %ld ---- TimeStamp = %lld",strTime,strUTCTime,unixTime,milliseconds);
}
- (NSString *) GetUTCDateTimeFromLocalTime:(NSString *)IN_strLocalTime

[dateFormatter setTimeZone:[NSTimeZone timeZoneWithAbbreviation:#"UTC"]];
NSString *strDateTime = [dateFormatter stringFromDate:objDate];
return strDateTime;
}

How do I convert a UTC NSDate to local timezone NSDate in Objective C or/and Swift?
NSTimeInterval seconds; // assume this exists
NSDate* ts_utc = [NSDate dateWithTimeIntervalSince1970:seconds];
NSDateFormatter* df_utc = [[[NSDateFormatter alloc] init] autorelease];
[df_utc setTimeZone:[NSTimeZone timeZoneWithName:#"UTC"]];
[df_utc setDateFormat:#"yyyy.MM.dd G 'at' HH:mm:ss zzz"];
NSDateFormatter* df_local = [[[NSDateFormatter alloc] init] autorelease];
[df_local setTimeZone:[NSTimeZone timeZoneWithName:#"EST"]];
[df_local setDateFormat:#"yyyy.MM.dd G 'at' HH:mm:ss zzz"];
NSString* ts_utc_string = [df_utc stringFromDate:ts_utc];
NSString* ts_local_string = [df_local stringFromDate:ts_utc];
// you can also use NSDateFormatter dateFromString to go the opposite way

EDIT When i wrote this I didn't know I should use a dateformatter which is probably a better approach, so check out slf's answer too.
I have a webservice that returns dates in UTC. I use toLocalTime to convert it to local time and toGlobalTime to convert back if needed.
This is where I got my answer from:
https://agilewarrior.wordpress.com/2012/06/27/how-to-convert-nsdate-to-different-time-zones/
#implementation NSDate(Utils)
-(NSDate *) toLocalTime
{
NSTimeZone *tz = [NSTimeZone defaultTimeZone];
NSInteger seconds = [tz secondsFromGMTForDate: self];
return [NSDate dateWithTimeInterval: seconds sinceDate: self];
}
-(NSDate *) toGlobalTime
{
NSTimeZone *tz = [NSTimeZone defaultTimeZone];
NSInteger seconds = -[tz secondsFromGMTForDate: self];
return [NSDate dateWithTimeInterval: seconds sinceDate: self];
}
#end
The easiest method I've found is this:
NSDate *someDateInUTC = …;
NSTimeInterval timeZoneSeconds = [[NSTimeZone localTimeZone] secondsFromGMT];
NSDate *dateInLocalTimezone = [someDateInUTC dateByAddingTimeInterval:timeZoneSeconds];
Swift 3+: UTC to Local and Local to UTC
extension Date {
// Convert UTC (or GMT) to local time
func toLocalTime() -> Date {
let timezone = TimeZone.current
let seconds = TimeInterval(timezone.secondsFromGMT(for: self))
return Date(timeInterval: seconds, since: self)
}
// Convert local time to UTC (or GMT)
func toGlobalTime() -> Date {
let timezone = TimeZone.current
let seconds = -TimeInterval(timezone.secondsFromGMT(for: self))
return Date(timeInterval: seconds, since: self)
}
}
If you want local Date and time. Try this code:-
NSString *localDate = [NSDateFormatter localizedStringFromDate:[NSDate date] dateStyle:NSDateFormatterMediumStyle timeStyle:NSDateFormatterMediumStyle];
Convert your UTC date to Local Date
-(NSString *)getLocalDateTimeFromUTC:(NSString *)strDate
{
NSDateFormatter *dtFormat = [[NSDateFormatter alloc] init];
[dtFormat setDateFormat:#"yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss"];
[dtFormat setTimeZone:[NSTimeZone timeZoneWithAbbreviation:#"UTC"]];
NSDate *aDate = [dtFormat dateFromString:strDate];
[dtFormat setDateFormat:#"yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss"];
[dtFormat setTimeZone:[NSTimeZone systemTimeZone]];
return [dtFormat stringFromDate:aDate];
}
Use Like This
NSString *localDate = [self getLocalDateTimeFromUTC:#"yourUTCDate"];
Here input is a string currentUTCTime (in format 08/30/2012 11:11) converts input time in GMT to system set zone time
//UTC time
NSDateFormatter *utcDateFormatter = [[[NSDateFormatter alloc] init] autorelease];
[utcDateFormatter setDateFormat:#"MM/dd/yyyy HH:mm"];
[utcDateFormatter setTimeZone :[NSTimeZone timeZoneForSecondsFromGMT: 0]];
// utc format
NSDate *dateInUTC = [utcDateFormatter dateFromString: currentUTCTime];
// offset second
NSInteger seconds = [[NSTimeZone systemTimeZone] secondsFromGMT];
// format it and send
NSDateFormatter *localDateFormatter = [[[NSDateFormatter alloc] init] autorelease];
[localDateFormatter setDateFormat:#"MM/dd/yyyy HH:mm"];
[localDateFormatter setTimeZone :[NSTimeZone timeZoneForSecondsFromGMT: seconds]];
// formatted string
NSString *localDate = [localDateFormatter stringFromDate: dateInUTC];
return localDate;
//This is basic way to get time of any GMT time.
NSDateFormatter *formatter = [[NSDateFormatter alloc] init];
[formatter setDateFormat:#"hh:mm a"]; // 09:30 AM
[formatter setTimeZone:[NSTimeZone timeZoneForSecondsFromGMT:1]]; // For GMT+1
NSString *time = [formatter stringFromDate:[NSDate date]]; // Current time
Convert the date from the UTC calendar to one with the appropriate local NSTimeZone.
I write this Method to convert date time to our LocalTimeZone
-Here (NSString *)TimeZone parameter is a server timezone
-(NSString *)convertTimeIntoLocal:(NSString *)defaultTime :(NSString *)TimeZone
{
NSDateFormatter *serverFormatter = [[NSDateFormatter alloc] init];
[serverFormatter setTimeZone:[NSTimeZone timeZoneWithAbbreviation:TimeZone]];
[serverFormatter setDateFormat:#"yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss"];
NSDate *theDate = [serverFormatter dateFromString:defaultTime];
NSDateFormatter *userFormatter = [[NSDateFormatter alloc] init];
[userFormatter setDateFormat:#"yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss"];
[userFormatter setTimeZone:[NSTimeZone localTimeZone]];
NSString *dateConverted = [userFormatter stringFromDate:theDate];
return dateConverted;
}
Since no one seemed to be using NSDateComponents, I thought I would pitch one in...
In this version, no NSDateFormatter is used, hence no string parsing, and NSDate is not used to represent time outside of GMT (UTC). The original NSDate is in the variable i_date.
NSCalendar *anotherCalendar = [[NSCalendar alloc] initWithCalendarIdentifier:i_anotherCalendar];
anotherCalendar.timeZone = [NSTimeZone timeZoneWithName:i_anotherTimeZone];
NSDateComponents *anotherComponents = [anotherCalendar components:(NSCalendarUnitEra | NSCalendarUnitYear | NSCalendarUnitMonth | NSCalendarUnitDay | NSCalendarUnitHour | NSCalendarUnitMinute | NSCalendarUnitSecond | NSCalendarUnitNanosecond) fromDate:i_date];
// The following is just for checking
anotherComponents.calendar = anotherCalendar; // anotherComponents.date is nil without this
NSDate *anotherDate = anotherComponents.date;
i_anotherCalendar could be NSCalendarIdentifierGregorian or any other calendar.
The NSString allowed for i_anotherTimeZone can be acquired with [NSTimeZone knownTimeZoneNames], but anotherCalendar.timeZone could be [NSTimeZone defaultTimeZone] or [NSTimeZone localTimeZone] or [NSTimeZone systemTimeZone] altogether.
It is actually anotherComponents holding the time in the new time zone. You'll notice anotherDate is equal to i_date, because it holds time in GMT (UTC).
You can try this one:
NSDate *currentDate = [[NSDate alloc] init];
NSTimeZone *timeZone = [NSTimeZone defaultTimeZone];
NSDateFormatter *dateFormatter = [[NSDateFormatter alloc] init];
[dateFormatter setDateStyle:NSDateFormatterLongStyle];
[dateFormatter setTimeStyle:NSDateFormatterLongStyle];
[dateFormatter setTimeZone:timeZone];
[dateFormatter setDateFormat:#"ZZZ"];
NSString *localDateString = [dateFormatter stringFromDate:currentDate];
NSMutableString *mu = [NSMutableString stringWithString:localDateString];
[mu insertString:#":" atIndex:3];
NSString *strTimeZone = [NSString stringWithFormat:#"(GMT%#)%#",mu,timeZone.name];
NSLog(#"%#",strTimeZone);
Please use this code.
NSDateFormatter *dateFormatter = [[NSDateFormatter alloc] init];
[dateFormatter setDateFormat:#"yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ss"];
[dateFormatter setTimeZone:[NSTimeZone timeZoneWithAbbreviation:#"UTC"]];
NSDate *date = [dateFormatter dateFromString:#"2015-04-01T11:42:00"]; // create date from string
[dateFormatter setDateFormat:#"EEE, MMM d, yyyy - h:mm a"];
[dateFormatter setTimeZone:[NSTimeZone localTimeZone]];
NSString *timestamp = [dateFormatter stringFromDate:date];
Solution for SwiftDate library:
// Take date by seconds in UTC time zone
var viewModelDate: Date = DateInRegion(seconds: Double(backendModel.scheduledTimestamp)).date
...
// Convert date to local timezone and convert to string by format rule.
label.text = viewModelDate.convertTo(region: .current).toFormat(" EEE MM/dd j:mm")

I have weird result trying to output NSDate object from NSString.
My NSString is: 1976-06-11
My method to convert is:
-(NSDate*)dateFromString:(NSString *)dateString{
// Convert string to date object
NSDateFormatter *dateFormat = [[NSDateFormatter alloc] init];
[dateFormat setDateFormat:#"yyyy-MM-dd"];
NSDate *date = [dateFormat dateFromString:dateString];
return date;
}
But it output 1976-06-10 21:00:00 +0000
How could that happen? Difference in 1 day.
You have date in UTC format. Use this code to converting your date to local time:
NSTimeInterval seconds; // assume this exists
NSDate *ts_utc = [NSDate dateWithTimeIntervalSince1970:seconds];
NSDateFormatter *utcFormatter = [[NSDateFormatter alloc] init];
utcFormatter.timeZone = [NSTimeZone timeZoneWithName:#"UTC"];
utcFormatter.dateFormat = #"yyyy.MM.dd G 'at' HH:mm:ss zzz";
NSDateFormatter *localFormatter = [[NSDateFormatter alloc] init];
localFormatter.timeZone = [NSTimeZone timeZoneWithName:#"EST"];
localFormatter.dateFormat = #"yyyy.MM.dd G 'at' HH:mm:ss zzz";
NSString *utcDateString = [utcFormatter stringFromDate:ts_utc];
NSString *LocalDateString = [localFormatter stringFromDate:ts_utc];
Or you can use [NSTimeZone defaultTimeZone] to prevent hardcoded strings for timezone names. This method returns the system time zone, If no default time zone has been set.
You can use following methods to convert an UTC date string into UTC date and local date
- (NSDate *)convertIntoGMTZoneDate:(NSString *)dateString
{
NSDateFormatter *gmtFormatter = [[NSDateFormatter alloc]init];
[gmtFormatter setDateStyle:NSDateFormatterFullStyle];
[gmtFormatter setTimeStyle:NSDateFormatterFullStyle];
[gmtFormatter setTimeZone:[NSTimeZone timeZoneWithName:#"GMT"]];
return [gmtFormatter dateFromString:dateString];
}
- (NSDate *)convertIntoSystemZoneDate:(NSString *)dateString
{
NSDateFormatter *systemZoneFormatter = [[NSDateFormatter alloc]init];
[systemZoneFormatter setDateStyle:NSDateFormatterFullStyle];
[systemZoneFormatter setTimeStyle:NSDateFormatterFullStyle];
[systemZoneFormatter setTimeZone:[NSTimeZone systemTimeZone]];
return [systemZoneFormatter dateFromString:dateString];
}
func dateFromString(dateString: String) -> NSDate {
// Convert string to date object
var dateFormat = NSDateFormatter()
dateFormat.dateFormat = "yyyy-MM-dd"
dateFormat.timeZone = NSTimeZone(name: "UTC")
var date = dateFormat.dateFromString(dateString)!
print(date)
return date
}
output :
1976-06-11 00:00:00 +0000
If you debug code, it shows 1 day difference but after run you will find the actual date which is you enter.
It works for me.I think it will helps you.
Thank you
