I want to display a duration in format 00:00:00 with it adding 0 when needed so that for exemple I'd have 04:07:32 and not 4:7:32. I'm not familiar with flutter so I'm not sure what to do.
Text(
"temps : 0$hours:0$minutes:0$seconds",
style: const TextStyle(
fontSize: 24,
),
) ,
this is my code. obviously the '0' before displaying the variable isn't working because while I do get the 04:07 to display as soon as it gets to the double digits it become 013:029 if you see what I mean. I could use a if to tell if one of the variable is in the single digits but I'm asking here hoping that there's an easier solution.
You can use padLeft like this:
Text(
"temps : ${hours.padLeft(2, "0")}:${minutes..padLeft(2, "0")}:${seconds.padLeft(2, "0")}",
style: const TextStyle(
fontSize: 24,
),
) ,
The details of the method padLeft can be found here
Pads this string on the left if it is shorter than width.
