How to get current Datetime in a specific format? - (Moved)

[KDoc]

Hi,

Is there any function or script in Autoit which will return the current date time in a specific format that is indexable as follows:

For example, for today's date of 02/16/2022 time 01:30:05 pm it will return 20220216133005? 

Thanks

Kris

Have you seen this prior thread?

Hi @KDoc,

I don't know a out of the box variant, but you requirement should be matched by that simple function:

#include-once
#include <Date.au3>

ConsoleWrite(_GetCurrentDateTimeAs_YYYYMMDDHHMMSS() & @CRLF)

Func _GetCurrentDateTimeAs_YYYYMMDDHHMMSS()
    Local Const $iStripAllWhitespaces = 8
    Local $sDateTime = _NowCalc()

    $sDateTime = StringReplace($sDateTime, '/', '')
    $sDateTime = StringReplace($sDateTime, ':', '')

    Return StringStripWS($sDateTime, $iStripAllWhitespaces)
EndFunc

Is that enough or do you need it more dynamically?

Best regards
Sven
