Snippet: Golang Time

Timezone

package main

import (
    "fmt"
    "time"
)

func main() {
    loc, _ := time.LoadLocation("Asia/Shanghai")
    t := time.Now().In(loc)
    fmt.Println(t)
}

Time Parse

Layout should follow this date time: Mon, 02 Jan 2006 15:04:05 -0700

e.g.:

t, err := time.Parse("2006-01-02 15:04:05 -0700", input)
