Method Detail

formatter

DateTimeFormatter formatter()
Creates a new DateTimeFormatter that uses the JIRA default time zone, locale, and relative date style. To get a "smart" formatter that automatically uses the time zone and locale of the currently logged in user, create a new formatter by calling DateTimeFormatter.forLoggedInUser() on the formatter returned by this method, e.g.:

     DateTimeFormatter userFormatter = dateTimeFormatterFactory.formatter().forLoggedInUser();
 
A formatter obtained in this fashion may be safely reused across requests.

Returns:
a new DateTimeFormatter
