How to use Time package to get Time & date in various formats.

main.go

// You can edit this code!
package main

import (
	"log"
	"time"
)

func main() {
	// get current time in UTC timezone
	currentTime := time.Now()
	log.Println("CurrentTime: ", currentTime)
	// To get the custom time in UTC timezone, we can use the following function:
	t := time.Date(2009, time.November, 10, 23, 0, 0, 0, time.UTC) // year, month, day, hour, minute, second, nanosecond, location
	log.Println("Time: ", t)
	log.Println("Time in UTC: ", t.UTC())
	log.Println("Time in Local: ", t.Local())
	log.Println("Time in Location: ", t.In(time.FixedZone("UTC", 0)))
	log.Println("Get the time - weekday: ", t.Weekday())
	log.Println("Get the time - year: ", t.Year())
	log.Println("Get the time - month: ", t.Month())
	log.Println("Get the time - day: ", t.Day())
	log.Println("Get the time - hour: ", t.Hour())
	log.Println("Get the time - minute: ", t.Minute())
	log.Println("Get the time - second: ", t.Second())
	log.Println("Get the time - nanosecond: ", t.Nanosecond())
	log.Println("Get the time - location: ", t.Location())

	// get current time in seconds since Unix epoch (January 1, 1970 UTC)
	secs := time.Now().Unix()
	log.Println("Secs: ", secs)

	// get current time in milliseconds since Unix epoch (January 1, 1970 UTC)
	milliSecs := time.Now().UnixNano() / 1000000
	log.Println("MilliSecs: ", milliSecs)
	// or
	// get current time in milliseconds since Unix epoch (January 1, 1970 UTC)
	milli := time.Now().UnixMilli()
	log.Println("Milli: ", milli)

	// get current time in microseconds since Unix epoch (January 1, 1970 UTC)
	microSecs := time.Now().UnixNano() / 1000
	log.Println("MicroSecs: ", microSecs)

	// get current time in nanoseconds since Unix epoch (January 1, 1970 UTC)
	nanoSecs := time.Now().UnixNano()
	log.Println("NanoSecs: ", nanoSecs)

	// get current time in available formats
	// get current time in RFC 3339 format
	isoTime := time.Now().Format(time.RFC3339)
	log.Println("ISO Time: ", isoTime)

	// get current time in RFC 1123 format
	rfcTime := time.Now().Format(time.RFC1123)
	log.Println("RFC Time: ", rfcTime)

	// print all the time formats in the local timezone
	log.Println("Time in Local: ", time.Now().Format(time.Kitchen))
	log.Println("Time in Local: ", time.Now().Format(time.Stamp))
	log.Println("Time in Local: ", time.Now().Format(time.StampMilli))
	log.Println("Time in Local: ", time.Now().Format(time.StampMicro))
	log.Println("Time in Local: ", time.Now().Format(time.StampNano))
	log.Println("Time in Local: ", time.Now().Format(time.RFC3339))
	log.Println("Time in Local: ", time.Now().Format(time.RFC1123))

	// To format a time in a specific format, we can use the bellow code:
	// format a time in string in the given layout
	t = time.Now()
	log.Println(t.Format("2006-01-02 15:04:05"))
