05 Jan 2016date.to_string <datetime> <pattern> <culture>
Converts a datetime object to a textual representation using the specified format string.
By default, if you are using a date, it will use the format specified by date.format which defaults to date.default_format (readonly) which default to %d %b %Y
You can override the format used for formatting all dates by assigning the a new format: date.format = '%a %b %e %T %Y';
You can recover the default format by using date.format = date.default_format;
By default, the to_string format is using the current culture, but you can switch to an invariant culture by using the modifier %g
For example, using %g %d %b %Y will output the date using an invariant culture.
If you are using %g alone, it will output the date with date.format using an invariant culture.
Suppose that date.now would return the date 2013-09-12 22:49:27 +0530, the following table explains the format modifiers:
