How to format a ZonedDateTime to a String?

Question

I want to convert a ZonedDateTime to a String in the format of ("dd/MM/yyyy - hh:mm"). I know this is possible in Joda-Time

Answer 1

Many thanks for above. Here it is in scala where localDateTime.now always Zulu/UTC time.

import java.time.format.DateTimeFormatter
import java.time.LocalDateTime
import java.time.ZoneId

val ny = ZoneId.of("America/New_York")
val utc = ZoneId.of("UTC")
val dateTime = LocalDateTime.now.atZone(utc)

val nyTime = DateTimeFormatter.
      ofPattern("yyyy-MMM-dd HH:mm z").
      format(dateTime.withZoneSameInstant(ny))
