  //or pass a date object

  var datefmt = new DateFormatter(date);

Methods

Format Date

This is based on ruby's strftime and allows you to convert a date object into formatted string as required.

Options:

  • %y - Year (e.g. 15)
  • %Y - Full Year (e.g 2015)
  • %m - Month (e.g 1)
  • %b - Short Text month (e.g Jan)
  • %B - Full month (e.g January)
  • %d - Date (e.g 28)
  • %a - Short Day (e.g. Sun)
  • %A - Day (e.g. Sunday)
  • %H - 24 Hours with 0 (e.g. 08)
  • %h - 24 hour without 0 (e.g. 8)
  • %-l - 12 hour (e.g. 8 or after 12 like 16:00 would be 4)
  • %p - AM or PM
  • %M - Mins with 0 (e.g. 09)
  • %-M - Mins without 0 (e.g. 9)
  • %S - seconds with 0 (e.g. 09)
  • %s - seconds without 0 (e.g. 9)

So you can call something like this:

  var fmt = dateFmt.formatDate("%A, %d %B %Y at %-l:%M%p.")
  console.log(fmt) // Sunday, 18 January 2015 at 4:44pm.
