[Haskell-beginners] OI UTCTime to String

[sasa bogicevic]

Hi All,

This is a small program

{-# LANGUAGE OverloadedStrings #-}
module Main where

import           Control.Monad.IO.Class     (liftIO)
import qualified Data.ByteString.Lazy.Char8 as L
import           Data.Time
import           Network                    (withSocketsDo)
import           Network.HTTP.Conduit


createRequestData today = [("index:brKursneListe",""),
 ("index:year","2016"),
 ("index:inputCalendar1", today),
 ("index:vrsta","3"),
 ("index:prikaz","0"),
 ("index:buttonShow","Prikazi")]


timeFromString  s = parseTimeOrError True defaultTimeLocale "%d %b %Y %l:%M %p" s

formatDateString time = formatTime defaultTimeLocale "%m/%d/%Y" time

getDateString = getCurrentTime

getFormatedDate  = formatDateString $ timeFromString getDateString

main = do
	print $ getFormatedDate


And here is my error

main.hs:25:54: error:
   • Couldn't match type ‘IO UTCTime’ with ‘[Char]’
     Expected type: String
       Actual type: IO UTCTime
   • In the first argument of ‘timeFromString’, namely ‘getDateString’
     In the second argument of ‘($)’, namely
       ‘timeFromString getDateString’
     In the expression: formatDateString $ timeFromString getDateString

Thanks!
