@DefaultKey("date") public class DateTool extends FormatConfig implements Serializable

Tool for working with Date and Calendar in Velocity templates. It is useful for accessing and formatting the "current" date as well as for formatting arbitrary Date and Calendar objects. Also the tool can be used to retrieve DateFormat instances or make conversions to and from various date types.

Possible formats include:

  • 'short', 'medium', 'long', 'full' (from DateFormat, optionally suffixed by '_date' or '_time' to get a date-only or time-only format
  • 'iso' for extended ISO 8601 without time zone (ex: '2016-11-24T10:27:30'), optionally suffixed by '_date' or '_time' to get a date-only or time-only format
  • 'iso_tz', like 'iso' with time zone offset (ex: '2016-11-24T10:27:30+01:00'), optionally suffixed by '_time' to get a time-only format ('10:27:30+01:00')
  • 'intl', like 'iso' but with a space separator between date and time (ex: '2016-11-24 10:27:30'), optionally suffixed by '_date' or '_time' to get a date-only or time-only format
  • 'intl_tz', like 'intl' but with the time zone short id suffixed after another space (ex: '2016-11-24 10:27:30 CET'), optionally suffixed by '_time' to get a time-only format ('10:27:30+01:00')
  • a custom format, as specified in SimpleDateFormat

Example of formatting the "current" date:

  $date                         -> Oct 19, 2003 9:54:50 PM
  $date.long                    -> October 19, 2003 9:54:50 PM PDT
  $date.medium_time             -> 9:54:50 PM
  $date.full_date               -> Sunday, October 19, 2003
  $date.get('default','short')  -> Oct 19, 2003 9:54 PM
  $date.get('yyyy-M-d H:m:s')   -> 2003-10-19 21:54:50
  $date.iso                     -> 2003-10-19T21:54:50-07:00
  $date.iso_tz_time             -> 21:54:50-07:00
  $date.intl_tz                 -> 2003-10-19 21:54:50 CET

 Example of formatting an arbitrary date:
  $myDate                        -> Tue Oct 07 03:14:50 PDT 2003
  $date.format('medium',$myDate) -> Oct 7, 2003 3:14:50 AM

 Example tools.xml config (if you want to use this with VelocityView):
 <tools>
   <toolbox scope="application">
     <tool class="org.apache.velocity.tools.generic.DateTool"
              format="yyyy-MM-dd"/>
   </toolbox>
 </tools>

Should you need to use several formats, you can either use explicit formats by means of the toDate(format, date) method, or you can declare several date tool instances with different formats.

The methods of this tool are highly interconnected, and overriding key methods provides an easy way to create subclasses that use a non-default format, calendar, locale, or timezone.

    • configure

      protected void configure(ValueParser values)
      Does the actual configuration. This is protected, so subclasses may share the same ValueParser and call configure at any time, while preventing templates from doing so when configure(Map) is locked.

      返回:
      the configured TimeZone

    • getDate

      public Date getDate()
      Returns a Date derived from the result of getCalendar()
      返回:
      a Date derived from the result of getCalendar()

    • getCalendar

      public Calendar getCalendar()
      Returns a Calendar instance created using the timezone and locale returned by getTimeZone() and getLocale(). This allows subclasses to easily override the default locale and timezone used by this tool.

      Sub-classes may override this method to return a Calendar instance not based on the system date. Doing so will also cause the getDate(), get(String), get(String,String), and toString() methods to return dates equivalent to the Calendar returned by this method, because those methods return values derived from the result of this method.

      返回:
      a Calendar instance created using the results of getTimeZone() and LocaleConfig.getLocale().

If you want only the date or time portion you can specify that along with the standard formats. (e.g. $date.medium_date or $date.short_time) More complex or custom formats can be retrieved by using the full method syntax. (e.g. $date.get('E, MMMM d'))

      public String format(String format, Object obj, Locale locale, TimeZone timezone)
      Returns a formatted string representing the specified date, Locale, and TimeZone.

      The specified format may be a standard style pattern ('full', 'long', 'medium', 'short', or 'default') or extended style pattern ('iso', 'iso_tz', 'intl', 'intl_tz').

      You may also specify that you want only the date or time portion be appending '_date' or '_time' respectively to the standard style pattern. (e.g. 'full_date', 'long_time', 'intl_date')

      If the format fits neither of these patterns, then the output will be formatted according to the symbols defined by SimpleDateFormat. 

         Examples: "E, MMMM d" will result in "Tue, July 24"
             "EEE, M-d (H:m)" will result in "Tuesday, 7-24 (14:12)"

      public String toLocalizedPattern(String format, Locale locale)
      Returns a localized date format pattern for the given format. SimpleDateFormat uses patterns that are based upon English words (such as Month = M, Day = d, and Year = y). When displaying a format pattern to readers of other languages, it is appropriate to display these patterns using their localized expectations. For instance, the date pattern yyyy-MM-dd should, for French speakers appear as "aaaa-MM-jj". SimpleDateFormat.toLocalizedPattern() provides this functionality, and this method merely calls that on an appropriately-constructed SimpleDateFormat object.
      参数:
      format - the custom or standard pattern to convert
      locale - the Locale to format for pattern for
      返回:
      a format string appropriate for the specified Locale
