Shifting month/day automatically when constructing LocalDate

This code

LocalDate date = LocalDate.of(2019, 4, 31);

Throws this error:

java.time.DateTimeException: Invalid date 'APRIL 31'

What I need is to construct a date based on a given number of days, 31 in this case, but since April only has 30 days I get the exception. In the example above, I should get May 1, is this feasible to do with the java.time library or needs to be coded manually?

If you really want to do that, you can try this instead of plusDay:

LocalDate.parse("2018-04-31", DateTimeFormatter.ISO_LOCAL_DATE.withResolverStyle(ResolverStyle.LENIENT))

As I mentioned in the comments, It would probably be easier if you added days to a base date, like this:

LocalDate.of(2019,4,1).plusDays(31);
