简单的方法，使用c#风格的方式将日期转换为字符串。

用法:

let a = time.asString()
// 1990-03-25


let b = time.asString("MM ∕ dd ∕ yyyy, hh꞉mm a")
// 03 / 25 / 1990, 10:33 PM

扩展:

extension Date {
    func asString(_ template: String? = nil) -> String {
        if let template = template {
            let df = DateFormatter.with(template: template)
            
            return df.string(from: self)
        }
        else {
            return globalDateFormatter.string(from: self)
        }
    }
}

// Here you can set default template for DateFormatter
public let globalDateFormatter: DateFormatter = DateFormatter.with(template: "y-M-d")

public extension DateFormatter {
    static func with(template: String ) -> DateFormatter {
        let df = DateFormatter()
        df.dateFormat = template
        return df
    }
}

swift格式:

func dateFormatterWithCalendar(calndarIdentifier: Calendar.Identifier, dateFormat: String) -> DateFormatter {

    let formatter = DateFormatter()
    formatter.calendar = Calendar(identifier: calndarIdentifier)
    formatter.dateFormat = dateFormat

    return formatter
}


//Usage
let date = Date()
let fotmatter = dateFormatterWithCalendar(calndarIdentifier: .gregorian, dateFormat: "yyyy")
let dateString = fotmatter.string(from: date)
print(dateString) //2018

NSCalendar *calendar = [NSCalendar currentCalendar];
NSDateComponents *components = [calendar components:(NSCalendarUnitYear | NSCalendarUnitMonth | NSCalendarUnitDay) fromDate:myNSDateInstance];
NSInteger year = [components year];
// NSInteger month = [components month];
NSString *yearStr = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"%ld", year];

使用扩展有清晰的代码

您可以编写一个扩展来将任何Date对象转换为任何所需的日历和格式

extension Date{
    func asString(format: String = "yy/MM/dd HH:mm",
                  for identifier: Calendar.Identifier = .persian) -> String {
        let formatter = DateFormatter()
        formatter.calendar = Calendar(identifier: identifier)
        formatter.dateFormat = format
        
        return formatter.string(from: self)
    }
}

然后这样使用它:

let now = Date()

print(now.asString())  // prints -> 00/04/18 20:25
print(now.asString(format: "yyyy/MM/dd"))  // prints -> 1400/04/18
print(now.asString(format: "MM/dd", for: .gregorian))  //  prints -> 07/09

迅速回答

static let dateformat: String = "yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ss"
public static func stringTodate(strDate : String) -> Date
{

    let dateFormatter = DateFormatter()
    dateFormatter.dateFormat = dateformat
    let date = dateFormatter.date(from: strDate)
    return date!
}
public static func dateToString(inputdate : Date) -> String
{

    let dateFormatter = DateFormatter()
    dateFormatter.dateFormat = dateformat
    return formatter.string(from: inputdate)

}

如果你在Mac OS X上，你可以这样写:

NSString* s = [[NSDate date] descriptionWithCalendarFormat:@"%Y_%m_%d_%H_%M_%S" timeZone:nil locale:nil];

但是这在iOS上是不可用的。
