The documentation is incorrect. You can find the correct field letters here: https://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/docs/api/java/time/format/DateTimeFormatter.html
The reference to https://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/docs/api/java/text/SimpleDateFormat.html is outdated, but we generally try to preserve compatibility, so I'm not sure what other incompatibilities are lurking here.
I went through the two pages and I think these are the differences
Old (SimpleDateFormat) | New (DateTimeFormatter) | Meaning | Comment | |
---|---|---|---|---|
y | u | Year | y = year of era, which will be the same in most cases |
|
F | [none]? | Day of week in month | no equivalent? | F is documented as "week of month" for new |
u | e | Day of week | e is actually "localized day of week" |
value: 2024-01-17T00:00:00Z value.toString('u') should return the day number for the current week ( ie 1-7) as indicated in https://openrefine.org/docs/manual/grelfunctions#date-functions
but its returning 2024 ive tried this with a text value and converted it to date, manually specifying the format date text value. ie value.toDate('y/m/d').toString('u') and it still outputs 2024
