How do I Convert DateTime.now to UTC in Ruby?

Question

If I have d = DateTime.now, how do I convert \'d\' into UTC (with the appropriate date)?

Answer 1

In irb:

>>d = DateTime.now
=> #
>> "#{d.hour.to_i - d.zone.to_i}:#{d.min}:#{d.sec}"
=> "11:16:41"

will convert the time to the utc. But as posted if it is just Time you can use:

Time.now.utc

and get it straight away.
