Class LocalDateTimeCodec

java.lang.Object

com.datastax.driver.core.TypeCodec<LocalDateTime>

com.datastax.driver.extras.codecs.jdk8.LocalDateTimeCodec

public class LocalDateTimeCodec
extends TypeCodec<LocalDateTime>

TypeCodec that maps LocalDateTime to CQL timestamp, allowing the setting and retrieval of timestamp columns as LocalDateTime instances.

IMPORTANT

1) The default timestamp formatter used by this codec produces CQL literals that may include milliseconds. This literal format is incompatible with Cassandra < 2.0.9.

2) Even if the ISO-8601 standard accepts timestamps with nanosecond precision, Cassandra timestamps have millisecond precision; therefore, any sub-millisecond value set on a LocalDateTime will be lost when persisted to Cassandra.

Method Detail

serialize

public ByteBuffer serialize(LocalDateTime value,
                            ProtocolVersion protocolVersion)

Description copied from class: TypeCodec

Serialize the given value according to the CQL type handled by this codec.

Implementation notes:

1. Null values should be gracefully handled and no exception should be raised; these should be considered as the equivalent of a NULL CQL value;
2. Codecs for CQL collection types should not permit null elements;
3. Codecs for CQL collection types should treat a null input as the equivalent of an empty collection.

Specified by:

serialize in class TypeCodec<LocalDateTime>

Parameters:

value - An instance of T; may be null.

protocolVersion - the protocol version to use when serializing bytes. In most cases, the proper value to provide for this argument is the value returned by ProtocolOptions.getProtocolVersion() (which is the protocol version in use by the driver).

Returns:

A ByteBuffer instance containing the serialized form of T

deserialize

public LocalDateTime deserialize(ByteBuffer bytes,
                                 ProtocolVersion protocolVersion)

Description copied from class: TypeCodec

Deserialize the given ByteBuffer instance according to the CQL type handled by this codec.

Implementation notes:

1. Null or empty buffers should be gracefully handled and no exception should be raised; these should be considered as the equivalent of a NULL CQL value and, in most cases, should map to null or a default value for the corresponding Java type, if applicable;
2. Codecs for CQL collection types should clearly document whether they return immutable collections or not (note that the driver's default collection codecs return mutable collections);
3. Codecs for CQL collection types should avoid returning null; they should return empty collections instead (the driver's default collection codecs all comply with this rule).
4. The provided ByteBuffer should never be consumed by read operations that modify its current position; if necessary, ByteBuffer.duplicate() duplicate} it before consuming.

Specified by:

deserialize in class TypeCodec<LocalDateTime>

Parameters:

bytes - A ByteBuffer instance containing the serialized form of T; may be null or empty.

protocolVersion - the protocol version to use when serializing bytes. In most cases, the proper value to provide for this argument is the value returned by ProtocolOptions.getProtocolVersion() (which is the protocol version in use by the driver).

Returns:

An instance of T

format

public String format(LocalDateTime value)

Description copied from class: TypeCodec

Format the given value as a valid CQL literal according to the CQL type handled by this codec.

Implementors should take care of quoting and escaping the resulting CQL literal where applicable. Null values should be accepted; in most cases, implementations should return the CQL keyword "NULL" for null inputs.

Implementing this method is not strictly mandatory. It is used:

1. in the query builder, when values are inlined in the query string (see BuiltStatement for a detailed explanation of when this happens);
2. in the QueryLogger, if parameter logging is enabled;
3. to format the INITCOND in AggregateMetadata.asCQLQuery(boolean);
4. in the toString() implementation of some objects (UDTValue, TupleValue, and the internal representation of a ROWS response), which may appear in driver logs.

If you choose not to implement this method, you should not throw an exception but instead return a constant string (for example "XxxCodec.format not implemented").

Specified by:

format in class TypeCodec<LocalDateTime>

Parameters:

value - An instance of T; may be null.

Returns:

CQL string

parse

public LocalDateTime parse(String value)

Description copied from class: TypeCodec

Parse the given CQL literal into an instance of the Java type handled by this codec.

Implementors should take care of unquoting and unescaping the given CQL string where applicable. Null values and empty Strings should be accepted, as well as the string "NULL"; in most cases, implementations should interpret these inputs has equivalent to a null reference.

Implementing this method is not strictly mandatory: internally, the driver only uses it to parse the INITCOND when building the metadata of an aggregate function (and in most cases it will use a built-in codec, unless the INITCOND has a custom type).

Specified by:

parse in class TypeCodec<LocalDateTime>

Parameters:

value - The CQL string to parse, may be null or empty.

Returns:

An instance of T; may be null on a null input.
