How to specifically format date/time in Groovy

I need to be able to timestamp things in this format:

2018-01-26T10:47:44.686000-08:00

I am not sure how exactly to do this - and having trouble following the docs

Or just the groovy format extension to the java.util.Date class: 

def date = new Date()
println(date.format("yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ss.SSSSSSZ"))

You may want to take a look at the SimpleDateFormat API: https://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/api/java/text/SimpleDateFormat.html

For example, a formatter like you mentioned above would be:

def df = new java.text.SimpleDateFormat("yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ss.SSSSSSZ")
println df.format(new Date())
