How to get the current timestamp in other timezones in Golang?

Question

I need to get the current time in different time-zones.

Currently I know that we can do the following:

t := time.Now()
fmt.Println(\"Location:\", t.Loca         


        

Answer 1

No, that is the best way. You can create your custom Location using FixedZone and use that custom location.

FixedZone returns a Location that always uses the given zone name and offset (seconds east of UTC).

Answer 2

//init the loc
loc, _ := time.LoadLocation("Asia/Shanghai")

//set timezone,  
now := time.Now().In(loc)
