Robert Kanter created OOZIE-1836:
------------------------------------
Summary: Documenation is wrong for the timestamp() EL Function
Key: OOZIE-1836
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OOZIE-1836
Project: Oozie
Issue Type: Bug
Components: docs
Affects Versions: 4.0.0
Reporter: Robert Kanter
The documentation for the {{timestamp()}} EL Function says:
{quote}
It returns the UTC current date and time in W3C format down to the second
(YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm:ss.sZ). I.e.: 1997-07-16T19:20:30.45Z
{quote}
https://oozie.apache.org/docs/4.0.1/WorkflowFunctionalSpec.html#a4.2_Expression_Language_Functions
This is incorrect. It's ISO08601 format in Oozie processing timezone down to
the minute (like other Oozie time formats). The Javadoc is even correct:
{code:java}
/**
* Return the current datetime in ISO8601 using Oozie processing timezone,
yyyy-MM-ddTHH:mmZ. i.e.:
* 1997-07-16T19:20Z
*
* @return the formatted time string.
*/
public static String timestamp() {
return DateUtils.formatDateOozieTZ(new Date());
}
{code}
We should update the documentation to match the javadoc
