ChronoField

class ChronoField : TemporalField
kotlin.Any
   ↳ kotlin.Enum<java.time.temporal.ChronoField>
   ↳ java.time.temporal.ChronoField

A standard set of fields.

This set of fields provide field-based access to manipulate a date, time or date-time. The standard set of fields can be extended by implementing TemporalField.

These fields are intended to be applicable in multiple calendar systems. For example, most non-ISO calendar systems define dates as a year, month and day, just with slightly different rules. The documentation of each field explains how it operates.

Enum values

ALIGNED_DAY_OF_WEEK_IN_MONTH

Added in API level 26
enum val ALIGNED_DAY_OF_WEEK_IN_MONTH : ChronoField

The aligned day-of-week within a month.

This represents concept of the count of days within the period of a week where the weeks are aligned to the start of the month. This field is typically used with ALIGNED_WEEK_OF_MONTH.

For example, in a calendar systems with a seven day week, the first aligned-week-of-month starts on day-of-month 1, the second aligned-week starts on day-of-month 8, and so on. Within each of these aligned-weeks, the days are numbered from 1 to 7 and returned as the value of this field. As such, day-of-month 1 to 7 will have aligned-day-of-week values from 1 to 7. And day-of-month 8 to 14 will repeat this with aligned-day-of-week values from 1 to 7.

Calendar systems that do not have a seven day week should typically implement this field in the same way, but using the alternate week length.

ALIGNED_DAY_OF_WEEK_IN_YEAR

Added in API level 26
enum val ALIGNED_DAY_OF_WEEK_IN_YEAR : ChronoField

The aligned day-of-week within a year.

This represents concept of the count of days within the period of a week where the weeks are aligned to the start of the year. This field is typically used with ALIGNED_WEEK_OF_YEAR.

For example, in a calendar systems with a seven day week, the first aligned-week-of-year starts on day-of-year 1, the second aligned-week starts on day-of-year 8, and so on. Within each of these aligned-weeks, the days are numbered from 1 to 7 and returned as the value of this field. As such, day-of-year 1 to 7 will have aligned-day-of-week values from 1 to 7. And day-of-year 8 to 14 will repeat this with aligned-day-of-week values from 1 to 7.

Calendar systems that do not have a seven day week should typically implement this field in the same way, but using the alternate week length.

ALIGNED_WEEK_OF_MONTH

Added in API level 26
enum val ALIGNED_WEEK_OF_MONTH : ChronoField

The aligned week within a month.

This represents concept of the count of weeks within the period of a month where the weeks are aligned to the start of the month. This field is typically used with ALIGNED_DAY_OF_WEEK_IN_MONTH.

For example, in a calendar systems with a seven day week, the first aligned-week-of-month starts on day-of-month 1, the second aligned-week starts on day-of-month 8, and so on. Thus, day-of-month values 1 to 7 are in aligned-week 1, while day-of-month values 8 to 14 are in aligned-week 2, and so on.

Calendar systems that do not have a seven day week should typically implement this field in the same way, but using the alternate week length.

ALIGNED_WEEK_OF_YEAR

Added in API level 26
enum val ALIGNED_WEEK_OF_YEAR : ChronoField

The aligned week within a year.

This represents concept of the count of weeks within the period of a year where the weeks are aligned to the start of the year. This field is typically used with ALIGNED_DAY_OF_WEEK_IN_YEAR.

For example, in a calendar systems with a seven day week, the first aligned-week-of-year starts on day-of-year 1, the second aligned-week starts on day-of-year 8, and so on. Thus, day-of-year values 1 to 7 are in aligned-week 1, while day-of-year values 8 to 14 are in aligned-week 2, and so on.

Calendar systems that do not have a seven day week should typically implement this field in the same way, but using the alternate week length.

AMPM_OF_DAY

Added in API level 26
enum val AMPM_OF_DAY : ChronoField

The am-pm-of-day.

This counts the AM/PM within the day, from 0 (AM) to 1 (PM). This field has the same meaning for all calendar systems.

When parsing this field it behaves equivalent to the following: The value is validated from 0 to 1 in strict and smart mode. In lenient mode the value is not validated. It is combined with HOUR_OF_AMPM (if not present, it defaults to '6') to form HOUR_OF_DAY by multiplying the AMPM_OF_DAY value by 12.

CLOCK_HOUR_OF_AMPM

Added in API level 26
enum val CLOCK_HOUR_OF_AMPM : ChronoField

The clock-hour-of-am-pm.

This counts the hour within the AM/PM, from 1 to 12. This is the hour that would be observed on a standard 12-hour analog wall clock. This field has the same meaning for all calendar systems.

When parsing this field it behaves equivalent to the following: The value is validated from 1 to 12 in strict mode and from 0 to 12 in smart mode. In lenient mode the value is not validated. The field is converted to an HOUR_OF_AMPM with the same value, unless the value is 12, in which case it is converted to 0.

See HOUR_OF_AMPM for the related field that counts hours from 0 to 11.

CLOCK_HOUR_OF_DAY

Added in API level 26
enum val CLOCK_HOUR_OF_DAY : ChronoField

The clock-hour-of-day.

This counts the hour within the day, from 1 to 24. This is the hour that would be observed on a 24-hour analog wall clock. This field has the same meaning for all calendar systems.

When parsing this field it behaves equivalent to the following: The value is validated from 1 to 24 in strict mode and from 0 to 24 in smart mode. In lenient mode the value is not validated. The field is converted to an HOUR_OF_DAY with the same value, unless the value is 24, in which case it is converted to 0.

See HOUR_OF_DAY for the related field that counts hours from 0 to 23.

DAY_OF_MONTH

Added in API level 26
enum val DAY_OF_MONTH : ChronoField

The day-of-month.

This represents the concept of the day within the month. In the default ISO calendar system, this has values from 1 to 31 in most months. April, June, September, November have days from 1 to 30, while February has days from 1 to 28, or 29 in a leap year.

Non-ISO calendar systems should implement this field using the most recognized day-of-month values for users of the calendar system. Normally, this is a count of days from 1 to the length of the month.

DAY_OF_WEEK

Added in API level 26
enum val DAY_OF_WEEK : ChronoField

The day-of-week, such as Tuesday.

This represents the standard concept of the day of the week. In the default ISO calendar system, this has values from Monday (1) to Sunday (7). The DayOfWeek class can be used to interpret the result.

Most non-ISO calendar systems also define a seven day week that aligns with ISO. Those calendar systems must also use the same numbering system, from Monday (1) to Sunday (7), which allows DayOfWeek to be used.

Calendar systems that do not have a standard seven day week should implement this field if they have a similar concept of named or numbered days within a period similar to a week. It is recommended that the numbering starts from 1.

DAY_OF_YEAR

Added in API level 26
enum val DAY_OF_YEAR : ChronoField

The day-of-year.

This represents the concept of the day within the year. In the default ISO calendar system, this has values from 1 to 365 in standard years and 1 to 366 in leap years.

Non-ISO calendar systems should implement this field using the most recognized day-of-year values for users of the calendar system. Normally, this is a count of days from 1 to the length of the year.

Note that a non-ISO calendar system may have year numbering system that changes at a different point to the natural reset in the month numbering. An example of this is the Japanese calendar system where a change of era, which resets the year number to 1, can happen on any date. The era and year reset also cause the day-of-year to be reset to 1, but not the month-of-year or day-of-month.

EPOCH_DAY

Added in API level 26
enum val EPOCH_DAY : ChronoField

The epoch-day, based on the Java epoch of 1970-01-01 (ISO).

This field is the sequential count of days where 1970-01-01 (ISO) is zero. Note that this uses the local time-line, ignoring offset and time-zone.

This field is strictly defined to have the same meaning in all calendar systems. This is necessary to ensure interoperation between calendars.

Range of EpochDay is between (LocalDate.MIN.toEpochDay(), LocalDate.MAX.toEpochDay()) both inclusive.

ERA

Added in API level 26
enum val ERA : ChronoField

The era.

This represents the concept of the era, which is the largest division of the time-line. This field is typically used with YEAR_OF_ERA.

In the default ISO calendar system, there are two eras defined, 'BCE' and 'CE'. The era 'CE' is the one currently in use and year-of-era runs from 1 to the maximum value. The era 'BCE' is the previous era, and the year-of-era runs backwards. See YEAR_OF_ERA for a full example.

Non-ISO calendar systems should implement this field to define eras. The value of the era that was active on 1970-01-01 (ISO) must be assigned the value 1. Earlier eras must have sequentially smaller values. Later eras must have sequentially larger values,

HOUR_OF_AMPM

Added in API level 26
enum val HOUR_OF_AMPM : ChronoField

The hour-of-am-pm.

This counts the hour within the AM/PM, from 0 to 11. This is the hour that would be observed on a standard 12-hour digital clock. This field has the same meaning for all calendar systems.

When parsing this field it behaves equivalent to the following: The value is validated from 0 to 11 in strict and smart mode. In lenient mode the value is not validated. It is combined with AMPM_OF_DAY to form HOUR_OF_DAY by multiplying the AMPM_OF_DAY value by 12.

See CLOCK_HOUR_OF_AMPM for the related field that counts hours from 1 to 12.

HOUR_OF_DAY

Added in API level 26
enum val HOUR_OF_DAY : ChronoField

The hour-of-day.

This counts the hour within the day, from 0 to 23. This is the hour that would be observed on a standard 24-hour digital clock. This field has the same meaning for all calendar systems.

When parsing this field it behaves equivalent to the following: The value is validated in strict and smart mode but not in lenient mode. The field is combined with MINUTE_OF_HOUR, SECOND_OF_MINUTE and NANO_OF_SECOND to produce a LocalTime. In lenient mode, any excess days are added to the parsed date, or made available via java.time.format.DateTimeFormatter#parsedExcessDays().

See CLOCK_HOUR_OF_DAY for the related field that counts hours from 1 to 24.

INSTANT_SECONDS

Added in API level 26
enum val INSTANT_SECONDS : ChronoField

The instant epoch-seconds.

This represents the concept of the sequential count of seconds where 1970-01-01T00:00Z (ISO) is zero. This field may be used with NANO_OF_SECOND to represent the fraction of the second.

An Instant represents an instantaneous point on the time-line. On their own, an instant has insufficient information to allow a local date-time to be obtained. Only when paired with an offset or time-zone can the local date or time be calculated.

This field is strictly defined to have the same meaning in all calendar systems. This is necessary to ensure interoperation between calendars.

MICRO_OF_DAY

Added in API level 26
enum val MICRO_OF_DAY : ChronoField

The micro-of-day.

This counts the microsecond within the day, from 0 to (24 * 60 * 60 * 1,000,000) - 1. This field has the same meaning for all calendar systems.

This field is used to represent the micro-of-day handling any fraction of the second. Implementations of TemporalAccessor should provide a value for this field if they can return a value for SECOND_OF_DAY filling unknown precision with zero.

When this field is used for setting a value, it should behave in the same way as setting NANO_OF_DAY with the value multiplied by 1,000.

When parsing this field it behaves equivalent to the following: The value is validated in strict and smart mode but not in lenient mode. The value is split to form MICRO_OF_SECOND, SECOND_OF_MINUTE, MINUTE_OF_HOUR and HOUR_OF_DAY fields.

MICRO_OF_SECOND

Added in API level 26
enum val MICRO_OF_SECOND : ChronoField

The micro-of-second.

This counts the microsecond within the second, from 0 to 999,999. This field has the same meaning for all calendar systems.

This field is used to represent the micro-of-second handling any fraction of the second. Implementations of TemporalAccessor should provide a value for this field if they can return a value for SECOND_OF_MINUTE, SECOND_OF_DAY or INSTANT_SECONDS filling unknown precision with zero.

When this field is used for setting a value, it should behave in the same way as setting NANO_OF_SECOND with the value multiplied by 1,000.

When parsing this field it behaves equivalent to the following: The value is validated in strict and smart mode but not in lenient mode. The field is resolved in combination with MILLI_OF_SECOND to produce NANO_OF_SECOND.

MILLI_OF_DAY

Added in API level 26
enum val MILLI_OF_DAY : ChronoField

The milli-of-day.

This counts the millisecond within the day, from 0 to (24 * 60 * 60 * 1,000) - 1. This field has the same meaning for all calendar systems.

This field is used to represent the milli-of-day handling any fraction of the second. Implementations of TemporalAccessor should provide a value for this field if they can return a value for SECOND_OF_DAY filling unknown precision with zero.

When this field is used for setting a value, it should behave in the same way as setting NANO_OF_DAY with the value multiplied by 1,000,000.

When parsing this field it behaves equivalent to the following: The value is validated in strict and smart mode but not in lenient mode. The value is split to form MILLI_OF_SECOND, SECOND_OF_MINUTE, MINUTE_OF_HOUR and HOUR_OF_DAY fields.

MILLI_OF_SECOND

Added in API level 26
enum val MILLI_OF_SECOND : ChronoField

The milli-of-second.

This counts the millisecond within the second, from 0 to 999. This field has the same meaning for all calendar systems.

This field is used to represent the milli-of-second handling any fraction of the second. Implementations of TemporalAccessor should provide a value for this field if they can return a value for SECOND_OF_MINUTE, SECOND_OF_DAY or INSTANT_SECONDS filling unknown precision with zero.

When this field is used for setting a value, it should behave in the same way as setting NANO_OF_SECOND with the value multiplied by 1,000,000.

When parsing this field it behaves equivalent to the following: The value is validated in strict and smart mode but not in lenient mode. The field is resolved in combination with MICRO_OF_SECOND to produce NANO_OF_SECOND.

MINUTE_OF_DAY

Added in API level 26
enum val MINUTE_OF_DAY : ChronoField

The minute-of-day.

This counts the minute within the day, from 0 to (24 * 60) - 1. This field has the same meaning for all calendar systems.

When parsing this field it behaves equivalent to the following: The value is validated in strict and smart mode but not in lenient mode. The value is split to form MINUTE_OF_HOUR and HOUR_OF_DAY fields.

MINUTE_OF_HOUR

Added in API level 26
enum val MINUTE_OF_HOUR : ChronoField

The minute-of-hour.

This counts the minute within the hour, from 0 to 59. This field has the same meaning for all calendar systems.

When parsing this field it behaves equivalent to the following: The value is validated in strict and smart mode but not in lenient mode.

MONTH_OF_YEAR

Added in API level 26
enum val MONTH_OF_YEAR : ChronoField

The month-of-year, such as March.

This represents the concept of the month within the year. In the default ISO calendar system, this has values from January (1) to December (12).

Non-ISO calendar systems should implement this field using the most recognized month-of-year values for users of the calendar system. Normally, this is a count of months starting from 1.

NANO_OF_DAY

Added in API level 26
enum val NANO_OF_DAY : ChronoField

The nano-of-day.

This counts the nanosecond within the day, from 0 to (24 * 60 * 60 * 1,000,000,000) - 1. This field has the same meaning for all calendar systems.

This field is used to represent the nano-of-day handling any fraction of the second. Implementations of TemporalAccessor should provide a value for this field if they can return a value for SECOND_OF_DAY filling unknown precision with zero.

When parsing this field it behaves equivalent to the following: The value is validated in strict and smart mode but not in lenient mode. The value is split to form NANO_OF_SECOND, SECOND_OF_MINUTE, MINUTE_OF_HOUR and HOUR_OF_DAY fields.

NANO_OF_SECOND

Added in API level 26
enum val NANO_OF_SECOND : ChronoField

The nano-of-second.

This counts the nanosecond within the second, from 0 to 999,999,999. This field has the same meaning for all calendar systems.

This field is used to represent the nano-of-second handling any fraction of the second. Implementations of TemporalAccessor should provide a value for this field if they can return a value for SECOND_OF_MINUTE, SECOND_OF_DAY or INSTANT_SECONDS filling unknown precision with zero.

When this field is used for setting a value, it should set as much precision as the object stores, using integer division to remove excess precision. For example, if the TemporalAccessor stores time to millisecond precision, then the nano-of-second must be divided by 1,000,000 before replacing the milli-of-second.

When parsing this field it behaves equivalent to the following: The value is validated in strict and smart mode but not in lenient mode. The field is resolved in combination with MILLI_OF_SECOND and MICRO_OF_SECOND.

OFFSET_SECONDS

Added in API level 26
enum val OFFSET_SECONDS : ChronoField

The offset from UTC/Greenwich.

This represents the concept of the offset in seconds of local time from UTC/Greenwich.

A ZoneOffset represents the period of time that local time differs from UTC/Greenwich. This is usually a fixed number of hours and minutes. It is equivalent to the total amount of the offset in seconds. For example, during the winter Paris has an offset of +01:00, which is 3600 seconds.

This field is strictly defined to have the same meaning in all calendar systems. This is necessary to ensure interoperation between calendars.

PROLEPTIC_MONTH

Added in API level 26
enum val PROLEPTIC_MONTH : ChronoField

The proleptic-month based, counting months sequentially from year 0.

This field is the sequential count of months where the first month in proleptic-year zero has the value zero. Later months have increasingly larger values. Earlier months have increasingly small values. There are no gaps or breaks in the sequence of months. Note that this uses the local time-line, ignoring offset and time-zone.

In the default ISO calendar system, June 2012 would have the value (2012 * 12 + 6 - 1). This field is primarily for internal use.

Non-ISO calendar systems must implement this field as per the definition above. It is just a simple zero-based count of elapsed months from the start of proleptic-year 0. All calendar systems with a full proleptic-year definition will have a year zero. If the calendar system has a minimum year that excludes year zero, then one must be extrapolated in order for this method to be defined.

SECOND_OF_DAY

Added in API level 26
enum val SECOND_OF_DAY : ChronoField

The second-of-day.

This counts the second within the day, from 0 to (24 * 60 * 60) - 1. This field has the same meaning for all calendar systems.

When parsing this field it behaves equivalent to the following: The value is validated in strict and smart mode but not in lenient mode. The value is split to form SECOND_OF_MINUTE, MINUTE_OF_HOUR and HOUR_OF_DAY fields.

SECOND_OF_MINUTE

Added in API level 26
enum val SECOND_OF_MINUTE : ChronoField

The second-of-minute.

This counts the second within the minute, from 0 to 59. This field has the same meaning for all calendar systems.

When parsing this field it behaves equivalent to the following: The value is validated in strict and smart mode but not in lenient mode.

YEAR

Added in API level 26
enum val YEAR : ChronoField

The proleptic year, such as 2012.

This represents the concept of the year, counting sequentially and using negative numbers. The proleptic year is not interpreted in terms of the era. See YEAR_OF_ERA for an example showing the mapping from proleptic year to year-of-era.

The standard mental model for a date is based on three concepts - year, month and day. These map onto the YEAR, MONTH_OF_YEAR and DAY_OF_MONTH fields. Note that there is no reference to eras. The full model for a date requires four concepts - era, year, month and day. These map onto the ERA, YEAR_OF_ERA, MONTH_OF_YEAR and DAY_OF_MONTH fields. Whether this field or YEAR_OF_ERA is used depends on which mental model is being used. See ChronoLocalDate for more discussion on this topic.

Non-ISO calendar systems should implement this field as follows. If the calendar system has only two eras, before and after a fixed date, then the proleptic-year value must be the same as the year-of-era value for the later era, and increasingly negative for the earlier era. If the calendar system has more than two eras, then the proleptic-year value may be defined with any appropriate value, although defining it to be the same as ISO may be the best option.

YEAR_OF_ERA

Added in API level 26
enum val YEAR_OF_ERA : ChronoField

The year within the era.

This represents the concept of the year within the era. This field is typically used with ERA.

The standard mental model for a date is based on three concepts - year, month and day. These map onto the YEAR, MONTH_OF_YEAR and DAY_OF_MONTH fields. Note that there is no reference to eras. The full model for a date requires four concepts - era, year, month and day. These map onto the ERA, YEAR_OF_ERA, MONTH_OF_YEAR and DAY_OF_MONTH fields. Whether this field or YEAR is used depends on which mental model is being used. See ChronoLocalDate for more discussion on this topic.

In the default ISO calendar system, there are two eras defined, 'BCE' and 'CE'. The era 'CE' is the one currently in use and year-of-era runs from 1 to the maximum value. The era 'BCE' is the previous era, and the year-of-era runs backwards.

For example, subtracting a year each time yield the following:
- year-proleptic 2 = 'CE' year-of-era 2
- year-proleptic 1 = 'CE' year-of-era 1
- year-proleptic 0 = 'BCE' year-of-era 1
- year-proleptic -1 = 'BCE' year-of-era 2

Note that the ISO-8601 standard does not actually define eras. Note also that the ISO eras do not align with the well-known AD/BC eras due to the change between the Julian and Gregorian calendar systems.

Non-ISO calendar systems should implement this field using the most recognized year-of-era value for users of the calendar system. Since most calendar systems have only two eras, the year-of-era numbering approach will typically be the same as that used by the ISO calendar system. The year-of-era value should typically always be positive, however this is not required.
