    Description

      Right now there's XWiki#formatDate() in oldcore. This needs to be moved into a proper component/API outside of oldcore.

      This API needs to handle:

      • configured date formatting for the current wiki
      • configured user timezone
      • (future) the ability to use the date formatting for a given locale for multilingual wikis. Right now we don't have a way to set this though.

      There's also a need for a Script Service to call this new component/API.

      And there's a need to refactor the existing $datetool velocity tool to use that Script Service.
