What is the prettiest way to convert time_point to string?

Question

Simple question, how to properly convert std::chrono::time_point to a std::string with as little code as possible?

Notes: I don't want to use cout it with put_time(). C++11 and C++14 solutions are accepted.

Answer 1

#include "date/date.h"
#include <type_traits>

int
main()
{
    auto s = date::format("%F %T", std::chrono::system_clock::now());
    static_assert(std::is_same<decltype(s), std::string>, "");
}

date/date.h is found here. It is a header-only library, C++11/14/17. It has written documentation, and a video introduction.

Update:

In C++20 the syntax is:

#include <chrono>
#include <format>
#include <type_traits>

int
main()
{
    auto s = std::format("{:%F %T}", std::chrono::system_clock::now());
    static_assert(std::is_same_v<decltype(s), std::string>{});
}
