). However Dart [DateFormat]([To see links please register here]
) support many more. I do not need translation, but need correct `DateFormat`. How to load all `DateFormat` locale?RE: How to load all dart DateFormat locale in flutter? - tammaravx - 07-21-2023
In your highest StatefulWidget add these imports
import 'package:intl/intl.dart';
import 'package:intl/date_symbol_data_local.dart';
in its State, override initState and add
@override
void initState() {
super.initState();
initializeDateFormatting();
}
For example
import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
import 'package:intl/intl.dart';
import 'package:intl/date_symbol_data_local.dart';
void main() => runApp(new MyApp());
class MyApp extends StatelessWidget {
@override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
return new MaterialApp(
title: 'Intl Demo',
theme: new ThemeData(
primarySwatch: Colors.blue,
),
home: new MyHomePage(title: 'Intl Demo Home Page'),
);
}
}
class MyHomePage extends StatefulWidget {
MyHomePage({Key key, this.title}) : super(key: key);
final String title;
@override
_MyHomePageState createState() => new _MyHomePageState();
}
class _MyHomePageState extends State<MyHomePage> {
DateFormat dateFormat;
DateFormat timeFormat;
@override
void initState() {
super.initState();
initializeDateFormatting();
dateFormat = new DateFormat.yMMMMd('cs');
timeFormat = new DateFormat.Hms('cs');
}
void _refresh() {
setState(() {});
}
@override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
var dateTime = new DateTime.now();
return new Scaffold(
appBar: new AppBar(
title: new Text(widget.title),
),
body: new Center(
child: new Column(
mainAxisAlignment: MainAxisAlignment.center,
children: <Widget>[
new Text(dateFormat.format(dateTime)),
new Text(timeFormat.format(dateTime)),
],
),
),
floatingActionButton: new FloatingActionButton(
onPressed: _refresh,
tooltip: 'Refresh',
child: new Icon(Icons.refresh),
),
);
}
}
Dart mostly uses the [ISO 631][1] 2 letter codes, with country variants if applicable. For example: `ja, en_US, en_GB, zh_HK, zh_CN`. Occasionally it uses a 3 letter code. To find the full list just search for `DateSymbols` in the file [date_symbol_data_local.dart][2]

Quoting [@kapace](

) comment:> You should use language tag in order to be sure that you consider locale's country code. Like in Canada where language is same `en` as `en-US`, but they format dates slightly different using `en-CA` locale.
For example:
```dart
var tag = Localizations.maybeLocaleOf(context)?.toLanguageTag();
var date1 = DateFormat.yMMMd(tag).format(DateTime.now()); // Dec 31, 2000
var date2 = DateFormat('MM/dd, hh:mm a', tag).format(DateTime.now()); // 12/31, 11:00 PM
```

I solved it setting the Intl.sytemLocale before using any DateFormat:
Intl.systemLocale = await findSystemLocale();
I didn't had to call `initializeDateFormatting()` and I'm using `intl: ^0.17.0`.

just add the language code like this (in my case 'ar' for Arabic)
DateFormat('MMMM', 'ar') .format(DateTime.now());
