Discussion

Use this type property when the call point allows the use of Date.FormatStyle; in other words, when the value type is Date. Typically, you use this with the formatted(_:) method of Date.

Customize the date format style using modifier syntax to apply specific date and time formats. For example:

let meetingDate = Date()
let localeArray = ["en_US", "sv_SE", "en_GB", "th_TH", "fr_BE"]
for localeID in localeArray {
    print(meetingDate.formatted(.dateTime
                                .day(.twoDigits)
                                .month(.wide)
                                .weekday(.short)
                                .hour(.conversationalTwoDigits(amPM: .wide))
                                .locale(Locale(identifier: localeID))))
}

// Tu, October 27, 5 PM
// ti 27 oktober 17
// Tu 27 October, 17
// อ. 27 ตุลาคม 17
// ma 27 octobre à 17 h

The default format styles provided are numeric date format and shortened time format. For example:

let meetingDate = Date()
meetingDate.formatted(.dateTime)) // 10/28/2020, 12:13 AM
