I am setting up an API that receives datetimes as String alongside with the country in which the datetimes are from. I have a formatter that converts those strings into ZonedDateTime
Say I am sending this JSON:
{
"country": "ID",
"activeUntil":"2020-03-10 08:00:00"
}
ID is for Indonesia (Timezone "Asia/Jakarta" UTC+7)
This is my converter
public static ZonedDateTime convertDatetimeStringToDatetime(String dtString, String country) throws ParseException {
DateFormat formatter = new SimpleDateFormat(("yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss"));
formatter.setTimeZone(TimeZone.getTimeZone(CountryTimezones.timezoneMap.get(country)));
return formatter.parse(dtString).toInstant().atZone(ZoneId.of(CountryTimezones.timezoneMap.get(country)));
}
CountryTimezones.getTimeZone is just a Map that link a country shortcode to its timezone.
Until this point all goes alright, my object holds the value that I want.
log.info(myObject.getActiveUntil().toString());
log.info(myObject.getActiveUntil().toLocalDateTime().toString());
log.info(myObject.getActiveUntil().withZoneSameInstant(ZoneId.of("UTC")).toString());
shows
2020-03-10T08:00+07:00[Asia/Jakarta]
2020-03-10T08:00
2020-03-10T01:00Z[UTC]
The problems come when I persist the date into database. I am using mybatis, and my query looks like this:
<insert id="insert">
INSERT INTO sometable (country, active_until, created_by)
VALUES (#{entity.country}, #{entity.activeUntil}, #{entity.createdBy})
</insert>
(shortened for clarity)
And the datetime saved is "2020-03-10 09:00:00"
For information my location timezone is utc+8, meaning, the datetime is autoconverted to my location timezone.
MyBatis version <mybatis.version>3.4.5</mybatis.version>
I am using MySQL DB
The type of the active_until column is (MySQL) datetime.
This the Query Log :
==> Preparing: INSERT INTO sometable (country, active_until, created_by) VALUES (?, ?, ?)
==> Parameters: ID(String), 2020-03-10 09:00:00.0(Timestamp), Created by System(String)
How to change this behavior to force save all my ZonedDateTime in UTC
I fixed it by adding this to my Application.java
@PostConstruct
public void init() {
TimeZone.setDefault(TimeZone.getTimeZone("UTC"));
System.out.println("Spring boot application running in UTC timezone :" + new Date());
}
myBatis apparently takes the timezone of the application as the timezone to use for saving a ZonedDateTime. Since I hadn't set it up, the application timezone was using system default which must have been the timezone of my location.
