Passing date to request param in Spring MVC

SpringSpring Mvc

Spring Problem Overview

I am new to Spring MVC - and I am trying to pass a date from my javascript as a request Param

My controller looks something like -

public @ResponseBody List<RecordDisplay> getRecords(
			@RequestParam(value="userID") Long userID,
			@RequestParam(value="fromDate") Date fromDate,
			@RequestParam(value="toDate") Date toDate) {

The question I have is how do I make the call from javascript - as in what should the URL look like

for eg. - /getRecords?userID=1&fromDate=06022013&toDate=08022013'

Do I need a way to parse the date so Spring can recognize it?

Spring Solutions

Solution 1 - Spring

Use @DateTimeFormat("MMddyyyy")

public @ResponseBody List<RecordDisplay> getRecords(
@RequestParam(value="userID")  Long userID,
@RequestParam(value="fromDate")     @DateTimeFormat(pattern="MMddyyyy") Date fromDate,
@RequestParam(value="toDate")     @DateTimeFormat(pattern="MMddyyyy") Date toDate) {

Solution 2 - Spring

This is now @DateTimeFormat as well which supports some common ISO formats

Solution 3 - Spring

Use @DateTimeFormat(pattern="yyyy-MM-dd") where yyyy is year, MM is month and dd is date

public @ResponseBody List<Student> loadStudents(@DateTimeFormat(pattern="yyyy-MM-dd") Date birthDay) {
    ...
}

Solution 4 - Spring

You should use your application.properties (or any other project properties) and set the environment variable spring.mvc.format.date.
