Summary: Improve Date and Time formatting functions in nifi-utils
FormatUtils
Key: NIFI-16121
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-16121
Project: Apache NiFi
Issue Type: Improvement
Reporter: David Young
Assignee: David Young
While working in FormatUtils for another reason, I noted that a lot of the
functions there-in do a lot of manual math to get things like millis or nanos.
Fortunately Java's date / time handling has come a long way since some of these
functions were written (circa-2016 or older) and a little bit of TLC might be
in order.
Proposal for this ticket is to use more native date handling functions for
things like `parseToInstant`, `formatMinutesSeconds`,
`formatHoursMinutesSeconds`.
At the same time, use string formatting methods to replace functions like
`pad2Places` and `pad3Places` as applicable.
