I have an ISO date coming back from a server and before I send it to the frontend I want to convert the ISO date to something like this
2011-10-05T14:48:00.000Z
time: {
day: 'Tue',
hour: '11:54 AM',
date: 'May 5, 2019'
}
I dont want to use a bunch of regex unless I have to, I was hoping I could achieve this with just functions like .toDateString() etc... is there a toDateDayString or something like that?
Here is the snippet of the actual function sending the info back to my frontent.
Id like to be able to to this inline from a promise in .then()
allMessages = []
await subClient.conversations.services(convoServiceSid)
.conversations(convo)
.messages
.list({limit: 20})
.then(messages => messages.forEach(m =>
allMessages.push({"messagesId": m.conversationSid, "time": m.dateCreated.toDateString() }) ));
//m.dateCreated is always going to be an ISO string, I want to make an object with day, hour, date if possible
res.json(allMessages)
I think you can do it like this:
const date = new Date('2011-10-05T14:48:00.000Z');
const format = {
day: date.getDay(),
hour: `${date.getHours()} ${date.getMinutes()}`,
date: `${date.getMonth()} ${date.getFullYear()}`
};
You can use toLocaleDateString method
function get_time(iso_date_str) {
const [day, month_date, year, hour] = (
new Date(iso_date_str).toLocaleDateString('en', {
weekday: 'short',
hour: 'numeric',
minute: 'numeric',
month: 'short',
day: 'numeric',
year: 'numeric',
})
.split(/,\s?/)
);
return {
day,
hour,
date: month_date + ', ' + year
};
}
console.log(get_time('2011-10-05T14:48:00.000Z'));
