Display current date and time without punctuation Ask Question

For example, I want to display current date and time as the following format:

yyyymmddhhmmss

How do I do that? It seems like most date format comes with -, /, :, etc.

Here you go:

date +%Y%m%d%H%M%S

As man date says near the top, you can use the date command like this:

date [OPTION]... [+FORMAT]

That is, you can give it a format parameter, starting with a +. You can probably guess the meaning of the formatting symbols I used:

  • %Y is for year
  • %m is for month
  • %d is for day
  • ... and so on

You can find this, and other formatting symbols in man date.
