Version 1.4.2 : Need equivalent functionlity for Globalize.findClosestCulture().calendar.patterns

[ihari07]

Hi,

We are working on upgrading our globalize library from version 0.x to latest version 1.4.2.

We need a equivalent functionality for below property in Version 1.4.2 Globalize.findClosestCulture().calendar.patterns

I know that in latest version findClosestCulture() is not supported any more.

Based on the culture, we are getting calendar patterns in 0.x globalize. Howeever, i couldn't able to get the patterns in latest version.

imagine culture is set to 'en' Globalize.findClosestCulture().calendar.patterns

Output: { D: "dddd, MMMM dd, yyyy" F: "dddd, MMMM dd, yyyy h:mm:ss tt" M: "MMMM dd" S: "yyyy'-'MM'-'dd'T'HH':'mm':'ss" T: "h:mm:ss tt" Y: "yyyy MMMM" d: "M/d/yyyy" f: "dddd, MMMM dd, yyyy h:mm tt" t: "h:mm tt" }

I have tried to read cldr data content and get the calendar patterns in 1.4.2.

This is how we are creating globalize object now. I have tried see any equivalent property which gives calendar patterns like in old way, but i didn't get it.

const enGregorian = JSON.parse(require("text!cldr-data/main/en/ca-gregorian.json")), enCurrencies = JSON.parse(require("text!cldr-data/main/en/currencies.json")), enDateFields = JSON.parse(require("text!cldr-data/main/en/dateFields.json")), enNumbers = JSON.parse(require("text!cldr-data/main/en/numbers.json")), enTimeZoneNames = JSON.parse(require("text!cldr-data/main/en/timeZoneNames.json")), enUnits = JSON.parse(require("text!cldr-data/main/en/units.json")), currencyData = JSON.parse(require("text!cldr-data/supplemental/currencyData.json")), likelySubtags = JSON.parse(require("text!cldr-data/supplemental/likelySubtags.json")), metaZones = JSON.parse(require("text!cldr-data/supplemental/metaZones.json")), pluralsData = JSON.parse(require("text!cldr-data/supplemental/plurals.json")), timeData = JSON.parse(require("text!cldr-data/supplemental/timeData.json")), weekData = JSON.parse(require("text!cldr-data/supplemental/weekData.json"));

Globalize.load(likelySubtags, currencyData, enCurrencies, enDateFields, enGregorian, enNumbers, enTimeZoneNames, enUnits, metaZones, pluralsData, timeData, weekData);

this.globalize = Globalize('en');

Could you please guide me to write a function which gets same Output as mentioned sample object in latest version? Please let me know if i am missing something.

Thanks in advance.

I read two requests above:

1. Find the best match given a requested locale and the available list of supported locales
2. Get raw pattern data

Is that correct? Can you confirm?

I am looking for second point.

Is there any alternative for this Globalize.findClosestCulture().calendar.patterns in latest version?

Using globalize.cldr.get() (docs) to get the data you want (not recommended). It's recommended you use formatDate and simply get a formatted date using the library

Closing as not an issue

This is what i am gettting when i query Globalize.findClosestCulture().calendar.patterns in 0.x version.

{ D: "dddd, MMMM dd, yyyy" F: "dddd, MMMM dd, yyyy h:mm:ss tt" M: "MMMM dd" S: "yyyy'-'MM'-'dd'T'HH':'mm':'ss" T: "h:mm:ss tt" Y: "yyyy MMMM" d: "M/d/yyyy" f: "dddd, MMMM dd, yyyy h:mm tt" t: "h:mm tt" }

Now in version 1.x, is there anyway i can get the same object as above?
