Java Spring Restful API, Starttime and Endtime - spring

So i have Entity called Group, i have private LocalDate starttime; and private LocalDate endtime; and i have also private boolean finished =Boolean.FALSE; i want to write method or code (with validations) that when group is registered its starttime must start from that exact day or 1 months after, and its endtime must be after 3 or 6 month later and when endtime comes it should become finished(in db) help

Query entity elements by createdAt on specific date range does not work

My entity has createdAt field which is filled by #CreatedDate when the entity is created. This property is of Date type.
class MyEntity {
#CreatedDate
private Date createdAt;
}
I would like to filter out all entities in a List that are in a range from startDate to endDate. The problem is that when I used findAllByCreatedAtBetween(Date startDate, Date endDate); it worked but not for all cases. When the entity is created i.e.: 2019-10-25 14:15:23 I would like to get it also when the user will type as #RequestParam startDate from 2019-10-24 00:00 endDate to 2019-10-25 14:15 and also take this entity. How could I ignore everything that is behind minutes? Is there a way, because when I pass those values as startDate and endDate the entity isn't found, to find it I have to change 14:15 to 14:16.
You can set any parameter without others in LocalDateTime. For example you want handle without minute. You can set your search date parameter like this:
LocalDateTime localDateTime= myDate.atTime(14,15);//The first parameter is for Hour and other one is for minute.

Count the average of number of surveys per year, Spring Data Jpa

I have a Model, called Survey that has a
#CreationTimestamp
#Temporal(TemporalType.TIMESTAMP)
private Date submittedDate;
field, which is a timestamp that shows the time that a row is insterted in this table.
What I want to be able to query and show is this :
The total number of rows for every month, 12 months.
And then find the average. Which would be :
(countJan+CountFeb+...)/12; ( cycle through countInEveryMonth, and divide by 12 )
How do I query this using Spring Data Jpa ?
Do I write a method like :
int countBySubmittedDate(Date submittedDate) ? -
but this will count the number of Surveys at a given timestamp?
Thank you.
Whole year average can be:
public interface SurveyRepository extends CrudRepository<Survey, Integer> {
#Query("SELECT COUNT(s) FROM Survey s WHERE (date_field BETWEEN :yearStart AND :yearEnd)")
Long yearAverage(#Param("yearStart") Date yearEnd, #Param("yearEnd") Date yearEnd);
//you may divide it by 12
}
Same can be done for other scenario.

Parsing a year String to a LocalDate with Java8

With Joda library, you can do
DateTimeFormat.forPattern("yyyy").parseLocalDate("2008")
that creates a LocalDate at Jan 1st, 2008
With Java8, you can try to do
LocalDate.parse("2008",DateTimeFormatter.ofPattern("yyyy"))
but that fails to parse:
Text '2008' could not be parsed: Unable to obtain LocalDate from TemporalAccessor: {Year=2008},ISO of type java.time.format.Parsed
Is there any alternative, instead of specifically writing sth like
LocalDate.ofYearDay(Integer.valueOf("2008"), 1)
?
LocalDate parsing requires that all of the year, month and day are specfied.
You can specify default values for the month and day by using a DateTimeFormatterBuilder and using the parseDefaulting methods:
DateTimeFormatter format = new DateTimeFormatterBuilder()
.appendPattern("yyyy")
.parseDefaulting(ChronoField.MONTH_OF_YEAR, 1)
.parseDefaulting(ChronoField.DAY_OF_MONTH, 1)
.toFormatter();
LocalDate.parse("2008", format);
String yearStr = "2008";
Year year = Year.parse(yearStr);
System.out.println(year);
Output:
2008
If what you need is a way to represent a year, then LocalDate is not the correct class for your purpose. java.time includes a Year class exactly for you. Note that we don’t even need an explicit formatter since obviously your year string is in the default format for a year. And if at a later point you want to convert, that’s easy too. To convert into the first day of the year, like Joda-Time would have given you:
LocalDate date = year.atDay(1);
System.out.println(date);
2008-01-01
In case you find the following more readable, use that instead:
LocalDate date = year.atMonth(Month.JANUARY).atDay(1);
The result is the same.
If you do need a LocalDate from the outset, greg449’s answer is correct and the one that you should use.
I didn't get you
but from the title I think you want to parse a String to a localdate so this is how you do it
DateTimeFormatter formatter = DateTimeFormatter.ofPattern("d/MM/yyyy");
String date = "16/08/2016";
//convert String to LocalDate
LocalDate localDate = LocalDate.parse(date, formatter);

Java8 Adding Hours To LocalDateTime Not Working

I tried like below, but in both the cases it is showing same time? What i am doing wrong.
LocalDateTime currentTime = LocalDateTime.now(ZoneId.of("UTC"));
Instant instant = currentTime.toInstant(ZoneOffset.UTC);
Date currentDate = Date.from(instant);
System.out.println("Current Date = " + currentDate);
currentTime.plusHours(12);
Instant instant2 = currentTime.toInstant(ZoneOffset.UTC);
Date expiryDate = Date.from(instant2);
System.out.println("After 12 Hours = " + expiryDate);
"Current Date" Time is showing Same as "After 12 Hours"...
The documentation of LocalDateTime specifies the instance of LocalDateTime is immutable, for example plusHours
public LocalDateTime plusHours(long hours)
Returns a copy of this LocalDateTime with the specified number of
hours added.
This instance is immutable and unaffected by this method call.
Parameters:
hours - the hours to add, may be negative
Returns:
a LocalDateTime based on this date-time with the hours added, not null
Throws:
DateTimeException - if the result exceeds the supported date range
So, you create a new instance of LocalDateTime when you execute plus operation, you need to assign this value as follows:
LocalDateTime nextTime = currentTime.plusHours(12);
Instant instant2 = nextTime.toInstant(ZoneOffset.UTC);
Date expiryDate = Date.from(instant2);
System.out.println("After 12 Hours = " + expiryDate);
I hope it can be helpful for you.
From the java.time package Javadoc (emphasis mine):
The classes defined here represent the principal date-time concepts,
including instants, durations, dates, times, time-zones and periods.
They are based on the ISO calendar system, which is the de facto world
calendar following the proleptic Gregorian rules. All the classes are
immutable and thread-safe.
Since every class in the java.time package is immutable, you need to capture the result:
LocalDateTime after = currentTime.plusHours(12);
...
This is simple, you can use
LocalDateTime's method "plusHours(numberOfHours)
Like This
localDateTime.plusHours(numberOfHours);

How to getHourOfDay from a timestamp using java.time?

From a java.util.Date( a timestamp), how can I get the hour of day?
In joda.time I use getHourOfDay().
There are multiple solutions for this. If you wish to use the Java 8 classes from java.time the following you need to covert a Date to one of the DateTime classes. The following can be used to convert a Date to a ZonedDateTime where you then can get the hour:
Date date = new Date();
// Convert to java 8 ZonedDateTime
Date date = new Date();
final ZonedDateTime dateTime = date.toInstant()
.atZone(ZoneId.systemDefault());
// Get the hour
int hour = dateTime.getHour();
Quite verbose as you have noticed but the simple reason for this is that a Date is sort of an Instant
Despite its name, java.util.Date represents an instant on the time-line, not a "date". The actual data stored within the object is a long count of milliseconds since 1970-01-01T00:00Z (midnight at the start of 1970 GMT/UTC).
Another approach is simply to get the field from a Calendar instance.
final Calendar instance = Calendar.getInstance();
instance.setTime(date);
final int hourOfDay = instance.get(Calendar.HOUR_OF_DAY);
