How do I parse date/time string with dots/periods 01.08.2022 17:00:02
package main
import "fmt"
import "time"
func main() {
date, err := time.Parse("2.Jan.2006 15:04:05", "01.08.2022 17:00:02")
if err != nil {
panic(err)
}
fmt.Println(date)
}
This results in panic: parsing time "01.08.2022 17:00:02" as "2.Jan.2006 15:04:05": cannot parse "08.2022 17:00:02" as "Jan"
>Solution :
The correct format is:
date, err := time.Parse("2.1.2006 15:04:05", "01.08.2022 17:00:02")
The Jan in format will require the month name spelled out instead of a number.
