How to get Timestamp of the current Date and time in Rust

Question

I simply want to retrieve the current Time and Date and store it in a variable. For this I tried to use the chrono::DateTime.

In the documentation I found this:

use chrono::{DateTime, TimeZone, NaiveDateTime, Utc};  let dt = DateTime::<Utc>::from_utc(NaiveDate::from_ymd(2016, 7, 8).and_hms(9, 10, 11), Utc);     

This lets me store a specific Date and Time but I couldnt figure how to retrieve the actual current date and time and put it in my DateTime-Variable.

Use rust, use it now:

use chrono;  fn main() {     println!("{:?}", chrono::offset::Local::now());     println!("{:?}", chrono::offset::Utc::now()); }
