Does the java.time library provide a consolidated way to parse the entire ISO-8601 Duration Specification?
The Alexa Slot Type reference for duration lists some example strings to expect when using the AMAZON.DURATION slot type. All strings are in ISO-8601 Duration, but P2YT3H10 cannot be parsed by either java.time.Period or java.time.Duration.
Seq(
"PT10M",
"PT5H",
"P3D",
"PT45S",
"P8W",
"P7Y",
"PT5H10M",
"P2YT3H10"
).map { s =>
s -> Try {
try {
Period.parse(s)
} catch {
case ex: Throwable => Duration.parse(s)
}
}.map(x => x.toString -> x.getClass.getSimpleName)
}
.foreach(println)
Results:
(PT10M,Success((PT10M,Duration)))
(PT5H,Success((PT5H,Duration)))
(P3D,Success((P3D,Period)))
(PT45S,Success((PT45S,Duration)))
(P8W,Success((P56D,Period)))
(P7Y,Success((P7Y,Period)))
(PT5H10M,Success((PT5H10M,Duration)))
(P2YT3H10,Failure(java.time.format.DateTimeParseException: Text cannot be parsed to a Duration))
