I've this string: "2016-10-08 00:20:00.000000". And I need it as an NSDate (Date for swift 3) object.
I've tried with the following:
let formatterJsonDate = DateFormatter()
formatterJsonDate.dateFormat = "yyy-MM-dd hh:mm:ss"
print(formatterJsonDate.date(from: "2016-10-08 00:20:00.000000"))
I always return nil value. What's wrong? I guess it's something about the date format.
Your date format and your time string should be same. In your case it should be like,
let formatterJsonDate = DateFormatter()
formatterJsonDate.dateFormat = "yyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss"
print(formatterJsonDate.date(from: "2016-10-08 00:20:00"))
Or change dateformatter like,
"yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss.SSSSSS"
And hh
should be capital for 24 - hour format!!!! like HH
!
If you want use nano seconds your code must be :
let formatterJsonDate = DateFormatter()
formatterJsonDate.dateFormat = "yyy-MM-dd hh:mm:ss.SSSS"
if let myDate = formatterJsonDate.date(from: "2016-10-08 00:20:00.000000") {
print(myDate)
} else {
print ("Invalid Date")
}
