Get Week Number of LocalDate (Java 8) [duplicate]

Answer 1

One small warning. I haven't tested this yet, but looking at the API documentation of WeekFields and LocalDate.get, you should do something like:

LocalDate date = ...;
// Or use a specific locale, or configure your own rules
WeekFields weekFields = WeekFields.of(Locale.getDefault()); 
int weekNumber = date.get(weekFields.weekOfWeekBasedYear());

Answer 2

The answer of Mark Rotteveel is almost right and again an example which kind of confusion potential there is in the class WeekFields (similar sounding method names, but deviating from intuitive civil usage). The right code requires another field:

LocalDate date = LocalDate.now();
TemporalField woy = WeekFields.of(Locale.getDefault()).weekOfWeekBasedYear(); 
int weekNumber = date.get(woy);
