Does Flutter datetime.now() display time as 01:07:06?

When I do a datetime.now() in Flutter, for example 1:7:6, it shows 1:7:6. We want this to be displayed as 01:07:06.

DateTime now = DateTime.now();

print('${now.year}/${now.month}/${now.day} ${now.hour}:${now.minute}:${now.second}')

result

2023/5/10 1:7:56

    You can use:

    DateFormat('yyyy/MM/dd HH:mm:ss').format(DateTime.now())

    adding to the answer of @Alaindeseine you can also do it using toString().padLeft() method to pad the hours, minutes, and seconds with leading zeros if necessary:

    Code

    import 'dart:core';

void main() {
  DateTime now = DateTime.now();

  // Pad the hours, minutes, and seconds with leading zeros if necessary
  String formattedHour = now.hour.toString().padLeft(2, '0');
  String formattedMinute = now.minute.toString().padLeft(2, '0');
  String formattedSecond = now.second.toString().padLeft(2, '0');

  print('${now.year}/${now.month}/${now.day} $formattedHour:$formattedMinute:$formattedSecond');
}
