How to get the current time with GHCJS?

Question

How to get the current time with GHCJS? Should i try to access Date or use Haskell base libraries? Is there an utility function somewhere in the GHCJS base libraries?

The Data.Time.Clock module seems to work well:

import Data.Time.Clock (getCurrentTime)
import Data.Time.Format -- Show instance
main = do
  now <- getCurrentTime
  print now
