SunriseSunsetLib Java Library

Add mavenCentral() to your repositories block and include the dependency in your dependencies block in build.gradle.

repositories {
    mavenCentral()
}

dependencies {
    compile 'com.luckycatlabs:SunriseSunsetCalculator:1.2'
}

Add the following dependency to your pom.xml to include the SunriseSunsetCalculator in your Maven project.

<dependency>
  <groupId>com.luckycatlabs</groupId>
  <artifactId>SunriseSunsetCalculator</artifactId>
  <version>1.2</version>
</dependency>

If you prefer to build from the source code, clone the repository and use Maven to install it locally.

$ mvn clean install

To use the library, first instantiate a Location object with latitude and longitude strings, then create a SunriseSunsetCalculator using that location and a valid time zone identifier (e.g., "America/New_York"). You can then retrieve sunrise/sunset times as either formatted Strings or Calendar objects for a specific date.

Location location = new Location("39.9522222", "-75.1641667");
SunriseSunsetCalculator calculator = new SunriseSunsetCalculator(location, "America/New_York");

// Get sunrise as a String
String officialSunrise = calculator.getOfficialSunriseForDate(Calendar.getInstance());

// Get sunset as a Calendar object
Calendar officialSunset = calculator.getOfficialSunsetCalendarForDate(Calendar.getInstance());
