Last Updated : 30 Nov, 2018

The

format()

method of

LocalDateTime class

in Java formats this date-time using the specified formatter.

Syntax:

public String format(DateTimeFormatter formatter)

Parameter:

This method accepts a parameter

formatter

which specifies the formatter to use, not null.

Returns:

The function returns the formatted date string and not null. Below programs illustrate the LocalDateTime.format() method:

Program 1: Java


 // Java program to illustrate the format() method

import java.util.*;
import java.time.*;
import java.time.format.DateTimeFormatter;

public class GfG {
    public static void main(String[] args)
    {
        // Parses the date
        LocalDateTime dt1
            = LocalDateTime
                  .parse("2018-11-03T12:45:30");

        // Prints the date
        System.out.println("Original LocalDateTime: "
                           + dt1);

        // Display d1 in different formats
        // using format() method
        System.out.println("BASIC_ISO_DATE format: "
                           + (DateTimeFormatter.BASIC_ISO_DATE)
                                 .format(dt1));
        System.out.println("ISO_LOCAL_DATE format: "
                           + (DateTimeFormatter.ISO_LOCAL_DATE)
                                 .format(dt1));
        System.out.println("ISO_DATE format: "
                           + (DateTimeFormatter.ISO_DATE)
                                 .format(dt1));
        System.out.println("ISO_LOCAL_TIME format: "
                           + (DateTimeFormatter.ISO_LOCAL_TIME)
                                 .format(dt1));
        
    }
}

Output:

Original LocalDateTime: 2018-11-03T12:45:30
BASIC_ISO_DATE format: 20181103
ISO_LOCAL_DATE format: 2018-11-03
ISO_DATE format: 2018-11-03
ISO_LOCAL_TIME format: 12:45:30

Program 2: Java


 // Program to illustrate the format() method

import java.util.*;
import java.time.*;
import java.time.format.DateTimeFormatter;

public class GfG {
    public static void main(String[] args)
    {
        // Parses the date
        LocalDateTime dt1
            = LocalDateTime
                  .parse("2016-09-06T12:45:30");

        // Prints the date
        System.out.println(dt1);

        // Display d1 in different formats
        // using format() method
        System.out.println("ISO_TIME format: "
                           + (DateTimeFormatter.ISO_TIME)
                                 .format(dt1));
        System.out.println("ISO_LOCAL_DATE_TIME format: "
                           + (DateTimeFormatter.ISO_LOCAL_DATE_TIME)
                                 .format(dt1));
        System.out.println("ISO_DATE_TIME format: "
                           + (DateTimeFormatter.ISO_DATE_TIME)
                                 .format(dt1));
        System.out.println("ISO_ORDINAL_DATE format: "
                           + (DateTimeFormatter.ISO_ORDINAL_DATE)
                                 .format(dt1));
        System.out.println("ISO_WEEK_DATE format: "
                           + (DateTimeFormatter.ISO_WEEK_DATE)
                                 .format(dt1));
    }
}

Output:

2016-09-06T12:45:30
ISO_TIME format: 12:45:30
ISO_LOCAL_DATE_TIME format: 2016-09-06T12:45:30
ISO_DATE_TIME format: 2016-09-06T12:45:30
ISO_ORDINAL_DATE format: 2016-250
ISO_WEEK_DATE format: 2016-W36-2
