如果你没有NSDate -descriptionWithCalendarFormat:timeZone:locale: available(我不相信iPhone/Cocoa Touch包括这个)，你可能需要使用strftime和一些c风格的字符串。您可以使用NSDate -timeIntervalSince1970从NSDate中获取UNIX时间戳。

定义您自己的实用程序格式的日期所需的日期格式 如。

NSString * stringFromDate(NSDate *date)  
 {   NSDateFormatter *formatter
    [[NSDateFormatter alloc] init];  
    [formatter setDateFormat:@"MM ∕ dd ∕ yyyy, hh꞉mm a"];    
    return [formatter stringFromDate:date]; 
}

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  

要了解如何指定您想要的格式字符串，请查看此链接。 关于如何格式化日期的完整参考，请参阅Apple官方日期格式化指南。

  NSDateFormatter *dateformate=[[NSDateFormatter alloc]init];
  [dateformate setDateFormat:@"yyyy"]; // Date formater
  NSString *date = [dateformate stringFromDate:[NSDate date]]; // Convert date to string
  NSLog(@"date :%@",date);
