I have this Optional(2015-07-27 19:29:50 +0000) as a string? and I want to convert it to a date (NSDate) but I can't figure it out I've been searching a lot for solutions but I am pretty new to coding so if anyone could help I would appreciate it.
This is what I am using to convert the string to a date currently.
note: dateString is Optional(2015-07-27 19:29:50 +0000)
dateFormatter = NSDateFormatter()
println(dateFormatter)
dateFormatter.dateFormat = "yyyy-MM-dd"
let s = dateFormatter.dateFromString(dateString)
I always get a nil value

// SimpleDateFormat SimpleDateFormat formatter = new SimpleDateFormat("dd-M-yyyy"); Date date = new Date(); String formattedDate = formatter. format(date); Date parsedDate = formatter. parse(formattedDate); // DateTimeFormatter LocalDate date = LocalDate.
Java 8 – Convert Optional<String> to String In Java 8, we can use . map(Object::toString) to convert an Optional<String> to a String .
If you are getting nil from NSDateFormatter, you likely specified incorrect date format. Try this:
let strTime = "2015-07-27 19:29:50 +0000"
let formatter = NSDateFormatter()
formatter.dateFormat = "yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss Z"
formatter.dateFromString(strTime) // Returns "Jul 27, 2015, 12:29 PM" PST
