Functions

func Format

func Format(format string, t time.Time) string

This is an alternative to time.Format because no one knows what date 040305 is supposed to create when used as a 'layout' string this takes standard strftime format options. For a complete list of format options see http://strftime.org/

Example

t := time.Unix(1340244776, 0)
utc, _ := time.LoadLocation("UTC")
t = t.In(utc)
fmt.Println(Format("%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S", t))

Output:

2012-06-21 02:12:56
