Formatting Date And Time In Flutter During Return Type

[Koustubha Bharadvaj]

Hi,

I have created fun: HomeScreen() which extends to HomeScreenState().

I have used HomeScreenState() to return Timing And Date.

But the issue is I'm unable to format time for HH:MM (am or pm) and date to DD/MM/YYYY.

_currentTime(){
  return "${DateTime.now().hour} : ${DateTime.now().minute}";
 }
 _currentDate(){
  return "${DateTime.now().day}.${DateTime.now().month}.${DateTime.now().year}";
 }

I want this to be in required format.

Use FateFormat

import 'package:intl/intl.dart';

DateTime now = DateTime.now();

String formattedDate = DateFormat('yyyy-MM-dd – kk:mm').format(now);

Thanks Bro,

This is working up for me.

Can I get one more help?

I have created the complete flutter app now.

But i want it to auto refresh code, so that date and  time do change automatically...

You can use the new Dart feature, the extensions
