Get current date in Swift 3? [closed]
How can I set label.text current date in Swift 3?
I want to print just today to the screen. I did not find how to do that.
In c# is very simple:
var date = DateTime.Now
I need to write 15.09.2016 in swift 3. thanks
You say in a comment you want to get "15.09.2016".
For this, use Date
and DateFormatter
:
let date = Date()
let formatter = DateFormatter()
Give the format you want to the formatter:
formatter.dateFormat = "dd.MM.yyyy"
Get the result string:
let result = formatter.string(from: date)
Set your label:
label.text = result
Result:
15.09.2016
You can do it in this way with Swift 3.0:
let date = Date()
let calendar = Calendar.current
let components = calendar.dateComponents([.year, .month, .day], from: date)
let year = components.year
let month = components.month
let day = components.day
print(year)
print(month)
print(day)
