Convert DateTime to ISO 8601

Question

In Dart, how can I convert a DateTime to its ISO 8601 representation?

Just doing this

var dt = new DateTime.now();
print (dt.toString());

produces

2014-02-15 08:57:47.812

which isn't quite ISO 8601, that would be

2014-02-15T08:57:47.812

so only the "T" is missing - I can easily write my own function for this, just wondering if that already exists somewhere in the core libraries?

The other direction, ISO 8601 to DateTime, is already supported by DateTime.parse.

EDIT looks like the Dart team is adding this now, see here.

Answer 1

use :

DateTime now = DateTime.now();
String isoDate = now.toIso8601String();
