Темы: datetime dialects formatting golang java

Применимо к: C/POSIX strftime(3) · Java 8+ java.time.format.DateTimeFormatter · Go time package · .NET custom date and time format strings · Moment.js · date-fns >= 2.x

Симптомы: date formatted with a year token shows the wrong year on December 31 or January 1 (week-year trap) · date-fns format() throws RangeError: Use `dd` instead of `DD` (in ...) for formatting days of the month · Go time.Format prints the layout text (for example YYYY-MM-DD) literally instead of a date · minute value appears where the month was expected, or vice versa · Java output shows a day number above 31 because the pattern used DD

The same letter means different things across formatting libraries: Java's uppercase Y is a week-based year rather than a calendar year, and D is a day of the year in Java and date-fns but a day of the month in Moment — a token table to check before trusting a generated format string.

What it is

Concept strftime Java DateTimeFormatter Go reference time .NET custom format Moment.js / date-fns
4-digit calendar year %Y y (era-based) or uuuu (proleptic) 2006 yyyy Moment YYYY; date-fns yyyy
Upper/lower-case year trap %y = 2-digit calendar year; %G = ISO 8601 week-based year Y = week-based-year, not the calendar year not applicable yy = 2-digit calendar year; Y is not a token and is printed literally date-fns Y/YY/YYYY = local week-numbering year; Moment YYYY = calendar year
Month %m M (numeric or text) 01 MM M/MM in both
Minute vs. month case %M m (lowercase) 04 mm (lowercase; MM is the month) m/mm in both
Hour, 24h / 12h %H / %I H (0-23) / h (1-12) 15 / 03 HH / hh H/HH vs h/hh
Day of month vs. day of year %d = day of month; %j = day of year d = day of month; D = day of year 02 = day of month; 002 = day of year dd = day of month Moment D/DD = day of month, d = day of week; date-fns d = day of month, D/DD = day of year

Why it matters

Java's DateTimeFormatter distinguishes y (year-of-era) from Y (week-based-year): YYYY prints the wrong year for a few days around New Year, because the week a date falls into (as the locale defines weeks) can belong to the neighbouring year. Days split the same way: d is the day of the month, D the day of the year, so DD.MM.yyyy looks right throughout January and breaks from February. date-fns follows the Java/Unicode letters, not Moment.js: its source documents Y/YY/YYYY as the "local week-numbering year" and warns that D/DD "represent days of the year". By default date-fns (v2 and later) throws a RangeError for YY, YYYY, D and DD unless the useAdditionalWeekYearTokens or useAdditionalDayOfYearTokens option is set; with those options, or in Java, the result is silently wrong. Go avoids letter tokens: the layout is written as the reference time Mon Jan 2 15:04:05 MST 2006.

How to apply

  • When porting a format string from Moment.js to date-fns, replace YYYY with yyyy, D/DD with d/dd, and re-check any Moment d (day of week), which date-fns reads as the day of the month; do not silence date-fns's RangeError with the useAdditional…Tokens options.
  • For Go, build every layout from the reference values (2006, 01/Jan, 02, 15/03, 04, 05); other text is copied literally or, worse, partly read as a token (1 is the month, 2 the day, 3 the hour).
  • Check MM (month) versus mm (minute) in every generated format string.

Pitfalls

  • Trusting a Java format string that uses YYYY (week-based year) or DD (day of year) for a plain date; in .NET, YYYY is not even a token.
  • Reusing a Moment.js format string in date-fns unchecked.
  • Writing a Go layout with any date other than the reference time Mon Jan 2 15:04:05 MST 2006.
