How to Get Milliseconds from LocalDateTime in Java 8

Author:
In this article, I show you how to Java code to convert LocalDateTime to long (in Milliseconds) using Java 8 date-time API.
Learn and master in Java 8 features at Java 8 Tutorial with Examples.
As we know, LocalDateTime doesn't contain information about the time zone. In other words, we can't get milliseconds directly from LocalDateTime instance. First, we created an instance of the current date. After that, we used the toEpochMilli() method to convert the ZonedDateTime into milliseconds.

Get Milliseconds from LocalDateTime in Java 8

First, we created an instance of the current date. After that, we used the toEpochMilli() method to convert the ZonedDateTime into milliseconds.
package com.java.tutorials.collections;

import java.time.LocalDateTime;
import java.time.ZoneId;
import java.time.ZonedDateTime;

/**

public class LocalDateTimeExample {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
  
        LocalDateTime localDateTime = LocalDateTime.now();
  
        ZonedDateTime zdt = ZonedDateTime.of(localDateTime, ZoneId.systemDefault());
        long date = zdt.toInstant().toEpochMilli();
  
        System.out.println(date);
    }
}

Add Day, Hour and Minute to LocalDateTime

package com.java.tutorials.collections;

import java.time.LocalDateTime;
import java.time.ZoneId;
import java.time.ZonedDateTime;

public class LocalDateTimeExample {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
  
        LocalDateTime dateTime = LocalDateTime.now();;
        System.out.println(dateTime);
  
        // add days
        dateTime = dateTime.plusDays(10L);
        System.out.println(dateTime);
  
       // add hours
       dateTime = dateTime.plusHours(10L);
       System.out.println(dateTime);
  
       // add minutes
       dateTime.plusMinutes(10L);
       System.out.println(dateTime);
  
       ZonedDateTime zonedDateTime = ZonedDateTime.of(dateTime, ZoneId.systemDefault());
       long date = zonedDateTime.toInstant().toEpochMilli();

       System.out.println(date);
   }
}
Output:
2020-03-17T21:01:36.501682600
2020-03-27T21:01:36.501682600
