How to get current time in Swift?

I'm trying to get the current time, and I've done this so far:

    let date = NSDate()
    let calender = NSCalendar.currentCalendar()
    let components = calender.component([.Hour, .Minute], fromDate: date)

And I then try to get the hour of the components

    let hour = components.hour

This give me "Value of type "Int" has no member 'hour'". Any suggestions?

swift 4

let hh2 = (Calendar.current.component(.hour, from: Date()))
let mm2 = (Calendar.current.component(.minute, from: Date()))
let ss2 = (Calendar.current.component(.second, from: Date()))

print(hh2,":", mm2,":", ss2) 

 output: ---> 9 : 10 : 55

NSCalendar.component(_:fromDate:) returns a single component of a date, as an Int. So your components variable is actually of type Int. Passing multiple units to component(_:fromDate:) (as you are doing) is undefined.

Try this instead:

let components = calender.components([.Hour, .Minute], fromDate: date)

Note that the first part of the method name here is components, not component.

Also, you might want to change your calender variable to calendar, since that is the correct spelling.

Change 

let components = calender.component([.Hour, .Minute], fromDate: date)

to

let components = calender.components([.Hour, .Minute], fromDate: date)
