I have a string 20130510T202132Z
that I want to convert into a DateTime
object.
I've been trying to use Joda to get this to work but I can't get it to work. I've hit every link I can find on the subject -- and used formatters but it simply isn't working out.
What is the best way to do this?
Joda Time makes this really easy, as it has built-in support for the ISO format:
DateTimeFormatter iso = ISODateTimeFormat.basicDateTimeNoMillis();
DateTime dateTime = iso.parseDateTime(text);
The Joda-Time project is now in maintenance mode, with the team advising migration to the java.time classes.
DateTimeFormatter
Unfortunately this “basic” (minimal separators) version of the standard ISO 8601 format is not predefined in java.time as of Java 8. Use DateTimeFormatter
class to specify a matching pattern.
String input = "20130510T202132Z";
DateTimeFormatter f = DateTimeFormatter.ofPattern ( "uuuuMMdd'T'HHmmssX" );
By the way, the version with separators such as 2013-05-10T20:21:32Z
is known as the extended version of ISO 8601 .
OffsetDateTime
Parse as a OffsetDateTime
object. This class represents a moment on the timeline adjusted to a certain offset-from-UTC , resolving to nanoseconds. In this case the offset is UTC itself.
OffsetDateTime odt = OffsetDateTime.parse ( input , f );
odt.toString():
2013-05-10T20:21:32Z
The java.time framework is built into Java 8 and later. These classes supplant the troublesome old legacy date-time classes such as java.util.Date
, .Calendar
, & java.text.SimpleDateFormat
.
The Joda-Time project, now in maintenance mode , advises migration to java.time.

Where to obtain the java.time classes?
The ThreeTen-Extra project extends java.time with additional classes. This project is a proving ground for possible future additions to java.time. You may find some useful classes here such as Interval
, YearWeek
, YearQuarter
, and more .
