I have my data in JSON format which contains some date:
"NOME_PUBBL_LINEA" = "FOLLONICA - PIOMBINO";
"ORA_ARRIVA" = "1899-12-30T06:45:00";
"ORA_PARTE" = "1899-12-30T05:50:00";
I want to convert it like :
ora_arriva = 6.45,
ora_parte = 5.50
I have tried following :
NSDateFormatter *dateFormat = [[NSDateFormatter alloc] init];
[dateFormat setDateFormat:#"YYYY-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ss'+02:00'"];
[dateFormat setTimeZone:[NSTimeZone timeZoneWithName:#"Italy/Rome"]];
NSDate *dte = [dateFormat dateFromString:dataDic[#"ORA_ARRIVA"]];
But it is giving me like
1899-12-30 00:51:40 +0000
for ora_arriva.
[dateFormat setDateFormat:#"yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ss'+02:00'"];
Just yyyy :)
dateFromString returns an NSDate. You need take that NSDate object and construct your time:
NSDate *myDate = [NSDate date];
NSCalendar *gregorianCalendar = [[NSCalendar alloc] initWithCalendarIdentifier:NSGregorianCalendar];
NSDateComponents *comp = [gregorianCalendar components:NSHourCalendarUnit|NSMinuteCalendarUnit|NSSecondCalendarUnit fromDate:myDate];
NSLog(#"current time = %ld:%ld", [comp hour], [comp minute]);
Replace the myDate with your actual NSDate you got back from your dateFormatter
You need something like this
[dateformatter setDateFormat:#"MM-dd-yyyy hh:mm:ss"];
NSString *dateString = [dateformatter stringFromDate:adate];

time is string format like 10:27:43. but when i convert in to date format. it is going to change Sat Jan 1 10:27:43 2000.but i need only time like 10:27:43
NSDateFormatter *dateFormatter = [[NSDateFormatter alloc] init];
[dateFormatter setDateFormat:#"EEE MMM dd HH:mm:ss ZZZ yyyy"];
NSLog(#"Date is %#", dateTime);
// Convert to new Date Format
[dateFormatter setDateFormat:#"HH:mm:ss"];
newDate = [dateFormatter stringFromDate:dateTime];
NSLog(#" string Date is %#", newDate);
NSDateFormatter *dateFormatter1 = [[NSDateFormatter alloc] init] ;
[dateFormatter1 setDateFormat:#"HH:mm:ss"];
//[dateFormatter1 setDateFormat:#"dd/mm/yyyy"];
NSDate *dateFromString = [dateFormatter1 dateFromString:newDate];
NSLog(#"date format date %#",dateFromString);
you need to convert dateFormat as per date is coming and after convert it as you want.
Try this below code..
NSString *dateTime = #"Thu Jan 25 10:38:11 2018";
NSDateFormatter *dateFormatter = [[NSDateFormatter alloc] init];
[dateFormatter setDateFormat:#"EEE MMM dd HH:mm:ss yyyy"];
NSDate *dateFromString = [dateFormatter dateFromString:dateTime];
NSLog(#"Date is %#", dateTime);
// Convert to new Date Format
[dateFormatter setDateFormat:#"HH:mm:ss"];
NSString *result = [dateFormatter stringFromDate:dateFromString];
NSLog(#"result %#",result);
Split the time in date components and use that components as a time.
Check below code.
NSString *aStrTime = #"10:27:43";
NSDateFormatter *dateFormatter = [[NSDateFormatter alloc] init];
[dateFormatter setDateFormat:#"HH:mm:ss"];
NSDate *date = [dateFormatter dateFromString:aStrTime];
NSCalendar *calendar = [NSCalendar currentCalendar];
NSDateComponents *components = [calendar components:(NSCalendarUnitHour | NSCalendarUnitMinute | NSCalendarUnitSecond) fromDate:date];
NSInteger hour = [components hour];
NSInteger minute = [components minute];
NSInteger sec = [components second];
NSLog(#"%d:%d:%d", hour, minute, sec);
Note: change aStrTime and dateFormatPattern according to your need.
You can try the following code:-
For e.g:- if you are getting the date in 10-02-2017 12:30:50 format
NSString *strDate = #"10-02-2017 12:30:50";
NSDateFormatter *dateFormat = [[NSDateFormatter alloc] init];
[dateFormat setDateFormat:#"dd-mm-yyyy HH:mm:ss"];
NSDate *date = [dateFormatter dateFromString:strDate];
NSLog(#"The Date is: %#", date);
// By this code you will get the date in NSDate form. Now you can change the format to get the time
[dateFormat setDateFormat:#"HH:mm:ss"];
NSString *strFinalTime = [dateFormatter stringFromDate:strDate];
NSLog(#"strFinalTime: %#",strFinalTime);
below is my sample code.
NSDateFormatter * dateFormatter = [[NSDateFormatter alloc]init];
[dateFormatter setDateFormat:#"yyyy-MM-dd"];
NSDate * dateFormatted = [dateFormatter dateFromString:#"2016-01-17"];
NSLog(#"Date : %d",dateFormatted);
The output is 2016-01-16 18:30:00 +0000. How to get date Formatt 2016-01-17 . what is the reason for one day delay. please help me.
You shouldn't create the NSDate from the NSString without timezone mark.
Add timezone to the NSString like "-0800":
e.g. "2016-01-17 -0800" --> "yyyy-MM-dd Z"
Add code:
[dateFormatter setTimeZone:[NSTimeZone systemTimeZone]];// change timezone u want
NSDateFormatter * dateFormatter = [[NSDateFormatter alloc]init];
[dateFormatter setDateFormat:#"yyyy-MM-dd"];
NSDate * dateFormatted = [dateFormatter dateFromString:#"2016-01-17"];
NSTimeZone *currentTimeZone = [NSTimeZone localTimeZone];
NSInteger currentGMTOffset = [currentTimeZone secondsFromGMTForDate:dateFormatted];
NSTimeZone *utcTimeZone = [NSTimeZone timeZoneWithAbbreviation:#"UTC"];
NSInteger gmtOffset = [utcTimeZone secondsFromGMTForDate:dateFormatted];
NSTimeInterval gmtInterval = currentGMTOffset - gmtOffset;
NSDate *destinationDate = [[NSDate alloc] initWithTimeInterval:gmtInterval sinceDate:dateFormatted] ;
NSLog(#"Date : %#",destinationDate);
You can use below code...!
I am forcing the Date to be 2016-01-17 in first 2 scenarios. U can check and use if it is useful to you..!
NSDateFormatter * dateFormatter = [[NSDateFormatter alloc]init];
[dateFormatter setDateFormat:#"yyyy-MM-dd"];
NSDate * sourceDate = [dateFormatter dateFromString:#"2016-01-17"];
int daysToAdd = 1;
NSDate *presentDate = [sourceDate dateByAddingTimeInterval:60*60*24*daysToAdd]; //Output 2016-01-17 18:30:00 +0000
NSDate * dateFormatted = [dateFormatter dateFromString:#"2016-01-17"];
NSCalendar *calendar1 = [[NSCalendar alloc] initWithCalendarIdentifier:NSGregorianCalendar];
NSDateComponents *components1 = [calendar1 components:NSCalendarUnitYear|NSCalendarUnitMonth|NSCalendarUnitDay fromDate:dateFormatted];
[components1 setHour:24];//24
[components1 setMinute:00];//00
NSDate *presentDate1 = [calendar1 dateFromComponents:components1]; //Output 2016-01-17 18:30:00 +0000
//The input
NSString *myDateAsAStringValue = #"2016-01-17";
NSDateFormatter *df = [[NSDateFormatter alloc] init];
[df setTimeZone:[NSTimeZone timeZoneWithAbbreviation:#"UTC"]];
[df setDateFormat:#"yyyy-MM-dd"];
//Getting Date
NSDate *myDate = [df dateFromString: myDateAsAStringValue]; // Output 2016-01-17 00:00:00 +0000
//create the formatter for the output
NSDateFormatter *out_df = [[NSDateFormatter alloc] init];
[out_df setDateFormat:#"yyyy-MM-dd"];
NSString *dateStr=[out_df stringFromDate:myDate];//2016-01-17
Hope it helps you...!
I have a webservice that returns the date in this format:
2013-04-14
How do i figure out what day this corresponds to?
This code will take your string, convert it to an NSDate object and extract both the number of the day (14) and the name of the day (Sunday)
NSString *myDateString = #"2013-04-14";
// Convert the string to NSDate
NSDateFormatter *dateFormatter = [[NSDateFormatter alloc] init];
dateFormatter.dateFormat = #"yyyy-MM-dd";
NSDate *date = [dateFormatter dateFromString:myDateString];
// Extract the day number (14)
NSDateComponents *components = [[NSCalendar currentCalendar] components:NSDayCalendarUnit fromDate:date];
NSInteger day = [components day];
// Extract the day name (Sunday)
dateFormatter.dateFormat = #"EEEE";
NSString *dayName = [dateFormatter stringFromDate:date];
// Print
NSLog(#"Day: %d: Name: %#", day, dayName);
Note: This code is for ARC. If MRC, add [dateFormatter release] at the end.
An alternate method for getting the weekday can be:
NSString *myDateString = #"2013-04-14";
NSDateFormatter *dateFormatter = [[NSDateFormatter alloc] init];
[dateFormatter setDateFormat:#"yyyy-MM-dd"];
NSDate *date = [dateFormatter dateFromString:myDateString];
NSDateComponents *components = [[NSCalendar currentCalendar] components:NSWeekdayCalendarUnit fromDate:date];
NSInteger weekday = [components weekday];
NSString *weekdayName = [dateFormatter weekdaySymbols][weekday - 1];
NSLog(#"%# is a %#", myDateString, weekdayName);
You can use this code it working for me.
NSString *dateString = #"2013-04-14";
NSDateFormatter *dateFormatter = [[NSDateFormatter alloc] init];
[dateFormatter setDateFormat:#"yyyy-MM-dd"];
NSDate *dateFromString = [[NSDate alloc] init];
dateFromString = [dateFormatter dateFromString:dateString];
[dateFormatter setDateFormat:#"EEEE"];
NSLog(#"%#", [dateFormatter stringFromDate:dateFromString]);
If you have 2013-04-14 stored in a NSString called date, then you can do this...
NSArray *dateComponents = [date componentsSeperatedByString:#"-"];
NSString *day = [dateComponents lastObject];
Swift 3:
let datFromat = DateFormatter()
datFormat.dateFormat = "EEEE"
let name = datFormat.string(from: Date())
Bonus: If you want to set your own date template instead of using Date() above:
let datFormat = DateFormatter()
datFormat.dateFormat = "yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ssZZZZZ"
let thisDate = datFormat.date(from: "2016-10-13T18:00:00-0400")
Then call the 1st code after this.
I have following code to convert string to date. Is it possible that it sets time as "00:00:00" and not the current time?
NSDateFormatter *dateformat = [[NSDateFormatter alloc] init];
[dateformat setDateFormat:#"yyyy-MM-dd"];
NSString *str = #"2014-08-08";
NSDate *dt = [dateformat dateFromString:str];
This gives dt as "2014-08-08 15:20:00 +0000" because I did the operation at 15:20.
Edit: I am using this date to convert it to integer later to store it in database:
int t = [dt timeIntervalSince1970];
If you are displaying the date dt with NSLog you will see what the date description method provides. If you want to see the date in a specific way that suits you use NSDateFormatter to format the date.
Example:
NSDateFormatter *dateformat = [[NSDateFormatter alloc] init];
[dateformat setDateFormat:#"yyyy-MM-dd"];
NSString *str = #"2014-08-08";
NSDate *dt = [dateformat dateFromString:str];
NSDateFormatter *displayDateformat = [[NSDateFormatter alloc] init];
[displayDateformat setDateFormat:#"yyyy-MM-dd"];
NSString *displayDateString = [displayDateformat stringFromDate:dt];
NSLog(#"displayDateString: %#", displayDateString);
Output:
2014-08-08
Note per Apple docs: "This method returns a time value relative to an absolute reference date—the first instant of 1 January 2001, GMT."
A good practice is to use NSDateComponents
NSDate *yourDate = [NSDate date];
NSCalendar *calendar = [NSCalendar currentCalendar];
NSDateComponents *dateComponents = [calendar components:(NSYearCalendarUnit | NSMonthCalendarUnit | NSDayCalendarUnit) fromDate:yourDate];
[calendar setTimeZone:[NSTimeZone localTimeZone]];
// Set the time components manually
[dateComponents setHour:0];
[dateComponents setMinute:0];
[dateComponents setSecond:0];
yourDate = [calendar dateFromComponents:dateComponents];
Update
iOS8 :
[[NSCalendar currentCalendar] startOfDayForDate:[NSDate date]];
