How to use two filters in stream for different transformations

FreeOnGoo :

I need to perform transformations only for a particular condition. I do this transformation:

// filter 1: less date - group by max date by groupId
        List<Info> listResult = new ArrayList<>(listInfo.stream()
                .filter(info -> info.getDate().getTime() < date.getTime())
                .collect(Collectors.groupingBy(Info::getGroupId, Collectors.collectingAndThen(
                        Collectors.reducing((Info i1, Info i2) -> i1.getDate().getTime() > i2.getDate().getTime() ? i1 : i2),
                        Optional::get))).values());

But for the condition when there is more than the specified date, I do not need to convert anything, I just need to return this data:

// filter 2: more date - nothing change in list
        List<Info> listMoreByDate = listInfo.stream()
                .filter(info -> info.getDate().getTime() >= date.getTime())
                .collect(Collectors.toList());

Next, to combine these two filters - I combine the two lists:

listResult.addAll(listMoreByDate);

My question is, can this be done in one stream? Because filter 2 is absolutely useless, it simply returns a list for this condition.

Is it possible to perform these transformations with one continuous expression?

import java.text.ParseException;
import java.text.SimpleDateFormat;
import java.util.*;
import java.util.stream.Collectors;

public class App {
    public static void main(String[] args) throws ParseException {
        Info info1 = new Info(1L, getDateFromStr("2018-02-02T10:00:00"), 3L);
        Info info2 = new Info(2L, getDateFromStr("2018-02-02T12:00:00"), 3L);
        Info info3 = new Info(3L, getDateFromStr("2018-02-05T12:00:00"), 6L);
        Info info4 = new Info(4L, getDateFromStr("2018-02-05T10:00:00"), 6L);

        Date date = getDateFromStr("2018-02-03T10:10:10");

        List<Info> listInfo = new ArrayList<>();
        listInfo.add(info1);
        listInfo.add(info2);
        listInfo.add(info3);
        listInfo.add(info4);

        // filter 1: less date - group by max date by groupId
        List<Info> listResult = new ArrayList<>(listInfo.stream()
                .filter(info -> info.getDate().getTime() < date.getTime())
                .collect(Collectors.groupingBy(Info::getGroupId, Collectors.collectingAndThen(
                        Collectors.reducing((Info i1, Info i2) -> i1.getDate().getTime() > i2.getDate().getTime() ? i1 : i2),
                        Optional::get))).values());

        // filter 2: more date - nothing change in list
        List<Info> listMoreByDate = listInfo.stream()
                .filter(info -> info.getDate().getTime() >= date.getTime())
                .collect(Collectors.toList());

        listResult.addAll(listMoreByDate);

        System.out.println("result: " + listResult);
    }

    private static Date getDateFromStr(String dateStr) throws ParseException {
        return new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ss").parse(dateStr);
    }
}

class Info {
    private Long id;
    private Date date;
    private Long groupId;

    public Info(Long id, Date date, Long groupId) {
        this.id = id;
        this.date = date;
        this.groupId = groupId;
    }

    public Long getId() {
        return id;
    }

    public void setId(Long id) {
        this.id = id;
    }

    public Date getDate() {
        return date;
    }

    public void setDate(Date date) {
        this.date = date;
    }

    public Long getGroupId() {
        return groupId;
    }

    public void setGroupId(Long groupId) {
        this.groupId = groupId;
    }

    @Override
    public boolean equals(Object o) {
        if (this == o) return true;
        if (o == null || getClass() != o.getClass()) return false;
        Info info = (Info) o;
        return Objects.equals(id, info.id) &&
                Objects.equals(date, info.date) &&
                Objects.equals(groupId, info.groupId);
    }

    @Override
    public int hashCode() {

        return Objects.hash(id, date, groupId);
    }

    @Override
    public String toString() {
        final StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder("Info{");
        sb.append("id=").append(id);
        sb.append(", date=").append(date);
        sb.append(", groupId=").append(groupId);
        sb.append('}');
        return sb.toString();
    }
}

Holger :

I can’t see anything simpler than

List<Info> listResult = Stream.concat(
    listInfo.stream()
        .filter(info -> info.getDate().getTime() < date.getTime())
        .collect(Collectors.toMap(Info::getGroupId, Function.identity(),
            BinaryOperator.maxBy(Comparator.comparing(Info::getDate))))
        .values().stream(),
    listInfo.stream()
        .filter(info -> info.getDate().getTime() >= date.getTime())
    )
    .collect(Collectors.toList());

as these two operations are fundamentally different. Building a Map in the first step is unavoidable, as it will be used to identify the items with equal getGroupId property.

That said, you should consider switching from using Date to the java.time API.
