Iโve just added a new module to my java-spring-best-practices repository, focusing on how to effectively handle date and time in Java using LocalDate, LocalTime, and LocalDateTime. ๐ฏ
In this module, I demonstrate the use of these powerful Java objects without any custom formatting or parsing, showing the best practices for managing date and time in your Spring Boot applications.
Why Use LocalDate, LocalTime, and LocalDateTimeโ
๐ฏ Immutability: Once created, their values canโt be modified, ensuring thread safety.
๐ฏ Type Safety: Forget about handling date or time as String. These classes guarantee that your data is always in the correct format.
๐ฏ No Time Zones: LocalDate and LocalTime remove the complexity of time zones, making them perfect for use cases like event scheduling.
๐ Key Features:
๐ฏ Effortless Date and Time Handling: Create events with LocalDate for date, LocalTime for time, and LocalDateTime for combined date and time values.
๐ฏ No Manual Parsing or Formatting: Javaโs java.time package takes care of everything out of the box.
๐ Real Life Use Case:
I use these classes to create and manage events, ensuring clean and reliable handling of date and time fields. No external libraries, just pure Java!
๐ Check out the repo for code samples and more insights: https://github.com/agitrubard/java-spring-best-practices
๐ง Whether youโre building an event scheduler or need precise date and time control in your app, this module has you covered.
โญ Give it a try, and donโt forget to star the repo if you find it useful!
