How to obtain the end of the day when given a LocalDate?
I could get it by doing
LocalDateTime.of(LocalDate.now(), LocalTime.of(23, 59, 59));
But is there an equivalent 'atStartOfDay' method for the end of the day?
LocalDate.now().atStartOfDay();
LocalDate.now().atEndOfDay(); //doesn't work
Here are a few alternatives, depending on what you need:
LocalDate.now().atTime(23, 59, 59); //23:59:59
LocalDate.now().atTime(LocalTime.MAX); //23:59:59.999999999
But there is no built-in method.
As commented by @JBNizet, if you want to create an interval, you can also use an interval up to midnight, exclusive.
These are the variants available in LocalTime
, notice MIDNIGHT
and MIN
are equal.
LocalDate.now().atTime(LocalTime.MIDNIGHT); //00:00:00.000000000
LocalDate.now().atTime(LocalTime.MIN); //00:00:00.000000000
LocalDate.now().atTime(LocalTime.NOON); //12:00:00.000000000
LocalDate.now().atTime(LocalTime.MAX); //23:59:59.999999999
For reference, this is the implementation in java.time.LocalTime
/**
* Constants for the local time of each hour.
*/
private static final LocalTime[] HOURS = new LocalTime[24];
static {
for (int i = 0; i < HOURS.length; i++) {
HOURS[i] = new LocalTime(i, 0, 0, 0);
}
MIDNIGHT = HOURS[0];
NOON = HOURS[12];
MIN = HOURS[0];
MAX = new LocalTime(23, 59, 59, 999_999_999);
}
Get start of next day and subtract 1 second from it. This should work for you. :
public static void main(String[] args) {
LocalDate date = LocalDate.now();
LocalDateTime dt = date.atStartOfDay().plusDays(1).minusSeconds(1);
System.out.println(dt);
}
