If you want to format a date with Dart? You can use the intl package (installer) to format dates.
For en_US formats, it’s quite simple:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 | import 'package:intl/intl.dart'; main() { var now = new DateTime.now(); var formatter = new DateFormat('yyyy-MM-dd'); String formatted = formatter.format(now); print(formatted); // something like 2013-04-20 } |
There are many options for formatting. From the docs:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 41 42 43 | ICU Name Skeleton -------- -------- DAY d ABBR_WEEKDAY E WEEKDAY EEEE ABBR_STANDALONE_MONTH LLL STANDALONE_MONTH LLLL NUM_MONTH M NUM_MONTH_DAY Md NUM_MONTH_WEEKDAY_DAY MEd ABBR_MONTH MMM ABBR_MONTH_DAY MMMd ABBR_MONTH_WEEKDAY_DAY MMMEd MONTH MMMM MONTH_DAY MMMMd MONTH_WEEKDAY_DAY MMMMEEEEd ABBR_QUARTER QQQ QUARTER QQQQ YEAR y YEAR_NUM_MONTH yM YEAR_NUM_MONTH_DAY yMd YEAR_NUM_MONTH_WEEKDAY_DAY yMEd YEAR_ABBR_MONTH yMMM YEAR_ABBR_MONTH_DAY yMMMd YEAR_ABBR_MONTH_WEEKDAY_DAY yMMMEd YEAR_MONTH yMMMM YEAR_MONTH_DAY yMMMMd YEAR_MONTH_WEEKDAY_DAY yMMMMEEEEd YEAR_ABBR_QUARTER yQQQ YEAR_QUARTER yQQQQ HOUR24 H HOUR24_MINUTE Hm HOUR24_MINUTE_SECOND Hms HOUR j HOUR_MINUTE jm HOUR_MINUTE_SECOND jms HOUR_MINUTE_GENERIC_TZ jmv HOUR_MINUTE_TZ jmz HOUR_GENERIC_TZ jv HOUR_TZ jz MINUTE m MINUTE_SECOND ms SECOND s |
