Trying to get time in searched city but getting time in current location
Example of what I'm trying to achieve:
search City-> pass timestamp from APi -> get current time in this city(such as Tokyo 17:00)
Right now I'm getting time in my current location.
Here is timestampConverter function:
fun timestampConverter(num: Long): String {
var format = "HH:mm"
val formatter = SimpleDateFormat(format)
val calendar = Calendar.getInstance()
calendar.timeInMillis = num * 1000
return formatter.format(calendar.time)
}
Also I've tried to get hour by converting string
fun time(string: String): String{
val format = "yyyy-MM-dd'T'hh:mm:ss+|-hh:mm"
val expectedFormat = "hh:mm"
val dateFormat = SimpleDateFormat(format)
var date: Date? = null
var convertedDate: String? = null
try {
date = dateFormat.parse(string)
val simpleDateFormat = SimpleDateFormat(expectedFormat)
convertedDate = simpleDateFormat.format(date)
return convertedDate!!
} catch (e: Exception) {
e.printStackTrace()
return ""
}
}
Error:
java.text.ParseException: Unparseable date: "2018-11-27T05:00:00-05:00"
at java.text.DateFormat.parse(DateFormat.java:362)

As an aside consider throwing away the long outmoded and notoriously troublesomeSimpleDateFormatand friends, and adding ThreeTenABP to your Android project in order to usejava.time, the modern Java date and time API. It is so much nicer to work with.

Wrong pattern val format = "yyyy-MM-dd'T'hh:mm:ss+|-hh:mm", shouldn't include +|-hh:mm.
I was using format from http://support.sas.com/documentation/cdl/en/lrdict/64316/HTML/default/viewer.htm#a003169814.htm
