How to format current time using a yyyyMMddHHmmss format?


I'm trying to format the current time using this format yyyyMMddHHmmss.

t := time.Now()
fmt.Println(t.Format("yyyyMMddHHmmss"))

That is outputting:

yyyyMMddHHmmss

Any suggestions?


Solution

  • Use

    fmt.Println(t.Format("20060102150405"))
    

    as Go uses following constants to format date,refer here

    const (
        stdLongMonth      = "January"
        stdMonth          = "Jan"
        stdNumMonth       = "1"
        stdZeroMonth      = "01"
        stdLongWeekDay    = "Monday"
        stdWeekDay        = "Mon"
        stdDay            = "2"
        stdUnderDay       = "_2"
        stdZeroDay        = "02"
        stdHour           = "15"
        stdHour12         = "3"
        stdZeroHour12     = "03"
        stdMinute         = "4"
        stdZeroMinute     = "04"
        stdSecond         = "5"
        stdZeroSecond     = "05"
        stdLongYear       = "2006"
        stdYear           = "06"
        stdPM             = "PM"
        stdpm             = "pm"
        stdTZ             = "MST"
        stdISO8601TZ      = "Z0700"  // prints Z for UTC
        stdISO8601ColonTZ = "Z07:00" // prints Z for UTC
        stdNumTZ          = "-0700"  // always numeric
        stdNumShortTZ     = "-07"    // always numeric
        stdNumColonTZ     = "-07:00" // always numeric
    )
