I need to add 24 hr on the selected date slot in the calendar in milliseconds since the epoch.
As in the below code if I add 24 hr it will give me 00:00 time for the same day so I tried to use this (23, minutes: 59, seconds: 59) which is wrong.
Please suggest...
DateTime initialTime = selectedDate.value;
DateTime finalTime = selectedDate.value.add(new Duration(hours: 23,minutes: 59,seconds: 59));
int finalTimeInEpoch = finalTime.millisecondsSinceEpoch;
print('This is the initial time for selected day --> $initialTime and This is the final time for selected day --> $finalTime');
int initialTimeForApi = initialTime.millisecondsSinceEpoch;
int finalTimeForApi= finalTimeInEpoch;
print('This is the initial time for selected day --> ${initialTime.millisecondsSinceEpoch} and This is the final time for selected day --> $finalTimeInEpoch in millisecondsSinceEpoch');
Use Like This
DateTime finalTime = selectedDate.value.add(Duration(hours: 24));
if this don fix the issue your problem is selectedDate.value is not a valid format date time
I am trying to implement something which requires the date to be set at 00:00:00 for the next day.
For example :
DateTime? created_at = DateTime.now(); //lets say Jul 25 10:35:90
Now I want a variable start_date whose value should be Jul 26 00:00:00
How can I achieve this ?
Any help will be appreciated.
You can do something like below
DateTime? now = DateTime.now(); //lets say Jul 25 10:35:90
var lastMidnight = DateTime(now.year, now.month, now.day + 1);
It return 2022-07-26 00:00:00.000
I have converted a Date into DateTime format, and it is returning me the hour format in 00:00:00 but I want it to be in 23:59:59
Date startDate = Date.newInstance(2021,2,1);
This returns the output as 2021-02-01 00:00:00
When I try to convert this to the 23:59:59 hour format by using the below code
DateTime startDateConvertTwo = DateTime.newInstance(startDate, Time.newInstance(23, 59, 59, 0));
It is pushing the date to next day and returning the value of 2021-02-02 07:59:59
I tried to sort this out by changing the values of Time.newInstance by adding it as Time.newInstance(15, 59, 59, 0) by doing which I get the expected result. But is it the right way to achieve what I am trying to do?
Please let me know if there are any other ways.
The returned output of Date startDate = Date.newInstance(2021,2,1); is not 2021-02-01 00:00:00. It's just a date with no information about time, but System.debug() display it as a DateTime, that's why you see 00:00:00.
Try System.debug(String.valueOf(startDate)); to see only the Date part.
DateTime.newInstance(date, time)
Constructs a DateTime from the specified date and time in the local time zone.
As documentation states, the DateTime you get is in your own time zone. Anyway System.debug() shows it in UTC time zone (GMT+0), so if your time zone is GMT-8 you'll see 2021-02-02 07:59:59.
System.debug(String.valueOf(startDateConvertTwo )); will shows the DateTime in your own time zone, so you'll see 2021-02-01 23:59:59.
If you need a DateTime in GMT you could use DateTime.newInstanceGmt(date, time):
DateTime startDateGMT = DateTime.newInstanceGmt(startDate, Time.newInstance(23, 59, 59, 0));
If you cannot use that method, you could add your offset to a DateTime:
public static DateTime toUTC(DateTime value) {
Integer offset = UserInfo.getTimezone().getOffset(value);
return value.addSeconds(offset/1000);
}
You could test it in anonymous console:
Date startDate = Date.newInstance(2021,2,1);
DateTime startDateConvertTwo = DateTime.newInstance(startDate, Time.newInstance(23, 59, 59, 0));
DateTime startDateGMT = DateTime.newInstanceGmt(startDate, Time.newInstance(23, 59, 59, 0));
DateTime startDateGMT2 = toUTC(startDateConvertTwo);
System.debug('startDateConvertTwo: ' + startDateConvertTwo); // startDateConvertTwo: 2021-02-01 22:59:59 // Because I'm at GMT+1
System.debug('String.valueOf(startDateConvertTwo): ' + String.valueOf(startDateConvertTwo)); // String.valueOf(startDateConvertTwo): 2021-02-01 23:59:59
System.debug('startDateGMT: ' + startDateGMT); // startDateGMT: 2021-02-01 23:59:59 // Now it's in UTC
System.debug('String.valueOf(startDateGMT): ' + String.valueOf(startDateGMT)); // String.valueOf(startDateGMT): 2021-02-02 00:59:59 // So in my locale time it's the day after,
System.debug('startDateGMT2: ' + startDateGMT2); // startDateGMT2: 2021-02-01 23:59:59 // Same as startDateGMT
System.debug('String.valueOf(startDateGMT2): ' + String.valueOf(startDateGMT2)); // String.valueOf(startDateGMT2): 2021-02-02 00:59:59
public static DateTime toUTC(DateTime value) {
Integer offset = UserInfo.getTimezone().getOffset(value);
return value.addSeconds(offset/1000);
}
The output of startDateGMT and startDateGMT2 will be the same.
Noteworthy: DateTime fields are stored in GMT. When shown in the standard Salesforce UI, they're converted to the user's timezone.
String timer = "01:30 PM"
String = "12/10/2020"
DateTime fdate = DateFormat("yyyy-MM-dd").parse(dates);
DateTime ftime = DateFormat("hh:mm:ss").parse(timer);
I am getting the error while converting the string time into the Original time format. How to convert that time and date into the different format.
How to get the combination of date and time like 2020-10-12 13:30:00
Change ftime to :
DateTime ftime = DateFormat("HH:mm:ss").parse(timer);
Consider reading DateFormat Documentation for more information
I have a date in unix timestamp and I want to convert it to human readable...
def dateUnix = 1486146877214
Date dateObj = new Date( ((long)dateUnix) * 1000 )
def cleanDate = new SimpleDateFormat('yyyy-MM-dd').format(dateObj)
println "clean date $cleanDate"
This gives me..
clean date 49064-02-13
where I was expecting "2017-02-03".
What am I doing wrong?
I even casted the timestamp to a long explicitly as suggested in this answer.
To convert Unix time Timestamp to Java Date:
def timestamp = 1486146877214 // milliseconds
def date = new Date( timestamp ).toString()
assert 'Fri Feb 03 13:34:37 EST 2017' == date.toString() // EN/US date format
Create timestamps and/or confirm dates at TimestampConvert.net or EpochConverter.com, etc.
Don't multiply by 1000 - new Date(long) is in millisecs not microsecs
