# Date and Time
> As of v.6.4.0 the ADF is no longer using `moment.js` for date and time processing.
> This is related to the `moment.js`` sunset (<https://momentjs.com/docs/?/displaying/format/#/-project-status/>)
## Components
Date and DateTime ADF components are based on the following components:
* Date Picker: <https://v14.material.angular.io/components/datepicker/>
* DateTime Picker: <https://kuhnroyal.github.io/mat-datetimepicker/>
## Adapters
ADF 6.4.0 and later provides custom date and time adapters for <https://date-fns.org/> library.
### ADF DateFns Adapter
The `AdfDateFnsAdapter` is an implementation of an Angular DateAdapter,
that provides backwards compatibility with the [moment.js](https://momentjs.com).
The adapter works with both [moment.js](https://momentjs.com) and [date-fns](https://date-fns.org) formats,
and dynamically translates `moment.js` formatting tokens to `date-fns`.
In addition, the adapter automatically detects the current locale and switches to the corresponding values.
```ts
import { DateAdapter, MAT_DATE_FORMATS } from '@angular/material/core';
import { AdfDateFnsAdapter, ADF_DATE_FORMATS } from '@alfresco/adf-core';
@Component({
providers: [
{ provide: MAT_DATE_FORMATS, useValue: ADF_DATE_FORMATS },
{ provide: DateAdapter, useClass: AdfDateFnsAdapter }
]
})
export class MyComponent() {
constructor(private dateAdapter: DateAdapter<Date>) {}
}
```
The default set of ADF formats for Date picker components is as following:
```ts
export const ADF_DATE_FORMATS: MatDateFormats = {
parse: {
dateInput: 'dd-MM-yyyy'
},
display: {
dateInput: 'dd-MM-yyyy',
monthLabel: 'LLL',
monthYearLabel: 'LLL uuuu',
dateA11yLabel: 'PP',
monthYearA11yLabel: 'LLLL uuuu'
}
};
```
You can provide own format defaults by injecting a different `MAT_DATE_FORMATS` value:
```ts
@Component({
providers: [
{ provide: MAT_DATE_FORMATS, useValue: MY_CUSTOM_FORMATS }
]
})
```
### ADF DateTimeFns Adapter
The `AdfDateTimeFnsAdapter` is an implementation of the `mat-datetimepicker` DateTimeAdapter,
that provides backwards compatibility with the [moment.js](https://momentjs.com).
The adapter works with both [moment.js](https://momentjs.com) and [date-fns](https://date-fns.org) formats,
and dynamically translates `moment.js` formatting tokens to `date-fns`.
In addition, the adapter automatically detects the current locale and switches to the corresponding values.
```ts
import { DateAdapter, MAT_DATE_FORMATS } from '@angular/material/core';
import { DatetimeAdapter, MAT_DATETIME_FORMATS } from '@mat-datetimepicker/core';
import {
ADF_DATE_FORMATS,
ADF_DATETIME_FORMATS,
AdfDateFnsAdapter,
AdfDateTimeFnsAdapter
} from '@alfresco/adf-core';
@Component({
providers: [
{ provide: MAT_DATE_FORMATS, useValue: ADF_DATE_FORMATS },
{ provide: MAT_DATETIME_FORMATS, useValue: ADF_DATETIME_FORMATS },
{ provide: DateAdapter, useClass: AdfDateFnsAdapter },
{ provide: DatetimeAdapter, useClass: AdfDateTimeFnsAdapter }
]
})
export class MyComponent() {
constructor(private dateAdapter: DateAdapter<Date>,
private dateTimeAdapter: DatetimeAdapter<Date>) {}
}
```
The default set of formatting rules, compared to the `moment.js` equivalents, is as following:
```ts
export const ADF_DATETIME_FORMATS: MatDatetimeFormats = {
parse: {
dateInput: 'P', // L
monthInput: 'LLLL', // MMMM
timeInput: 'p', // LT
datetimeInput: 'Pp' // L LT
},
display: {
dateInput: 'P', // L
monthInput: 'LLLL', // MMMM
datetimeInput: 'Pp', // L LT
timeInput: 'p', // LT
monthYearLabel: 'LLL uuuu', // MMM YYYY
dateA11yLabel: 'PP', // LL
monthYearA11yLabel: 'LLLL uuuu', // MMMM YYYY
popupHeaderDateLabel: 'ccc, dd MMM' // ddd, DD MMM
}
};
```
You can provide own format defaults by injecting a different `MAT_DATETIME_FORMATS` value:
```ts
@Component({
providers: [
{ provide: MAT_DATETIME_FORMATS, useValue: MY_CUSTOM_FORMATS }
]
})
```
## Date Utils
If you need lower-level manipulations with dates, ADF provides `DateFnsUtils` that addresses various scenarios like:
- converting `moment.js` format tokens to `date-fns`
- parsing dates from strings, with moment.js/date-fns formatting tokens
- formatting dates as strings, using moment.js/date-fns formatting tokens
- validating dates
- converting UTC to Local datetime, or Local to UTC
```ts
import { DateFnsUtils } from '@alfresco/adf-core';
// format using moment.js tokens
const momentString = DateFnsUtils.formatDate(new Date(), 'll');
// format using date-fns tokens
const dateFnsString = DateFnsUtils.formatDate(new Date(), 'PP');
```
You can find more details on the format conversion in the DateFnsUtils [unit tests](https://github.com/Alfresco/alfresco-ng2-components/blob/develop/lib/core/src/lib/common/utils/date-fns-utils.spec.ts).
