Temporal.PlainDate.prototype.toPlainDateTime()

Limited availability

This feature is not Baseline because it does not work in some of the most widely-used browsers.

The toPlainDateTime() method of Temporal.PlainDate instances returns a new Temporal.PlainDateTime object representing this date and a supplied time in the same calendar system.

Syntax

toPlainDateTime()
toPlainDateTime(plainTime)

Parameters

plainTime Optional

A string, an object, or a Temporal.PlainTime instance representing the time component of the resulting PlainDateTime. It is converted to a Temporal.PlainTime object using the same algorithm as Temporal.PlainTime.from(). Defaults to "00:00:00".

Return value

A new Temporal.PlainDateTime object representing the date and time specified by this date and plainTime, interpreted in the calendar system of this date.
