Formatting a Duration like HH:mm:ss

Question

Is there a good way to format a Duration in something like hh:mm:ss, without having to deal with time zones?

I tried this:

DateTime durationDate = Da         


        

Answer 1

You can use Duration and implement this method:

String _printDuration(Duration duration) {
  String twoDigits(int n) => n.toString().padLeft(2, "0");
  String twoDigitMinutes = twoDigits(duration.inMinutes.remainder(60));
  String twoDigitSeconds = twoDigits(duration.inSeconds.remainder(60));
  return "${twoDigits(duration.inHours)}:$twoDigitMinutes:$twoDigitSeconds";
}

Usage:

final now = Duration(seconds: 30);
print("${_printDuration(now)}");
