Given date in format date, month and year in integer. The task is to find whether the date is possible on not. Valid date should range from 1/1/1800 – 31/12/9999 the dates beyond these are invalid. These dates would not only contains range of year but also all the constraints related to a calendar date.
Using the Date. One way to check if a string is date string with JavaScript is to use the Date. parse method. Date. parse returns a timestamp in milliseconds if the string is a valid date.
PHP | checkdate() Function The checkdate() function is a built-in function in PHP which checks the validity of the date passed in the arguments. It accepts the date in the format mm/dd/yyyy. The function returns a boolean value. It returns true if the date is a valid one, else it returns false.
Was able to find the solution. Since the date I am getting is in ISO format, only providing date to moment will validate it, no need to pass the dateFormat.
var date = moment("2016-10-19");
And then date.isValid() gives desired result.
var date = moment('2016-10-19', 'DD-MM-YYYY', true);
You should add a third argument when invoking moment that enforces strict parsing. Here is the relevant portion of the moment documentation http://momentjs.com/docs/#/parsing/string-format/ It is near the end of the section.
I just found a really messed up case.
moment('Decimal128', 'YYYY-MM-DD').isValid() // true
Here you go: Working Fidddle
$(function(){
var dateFormat = 'DD-MM-YYYY';
alert(moment(moment("2012-10-19").format(dateFormat),dateFormat,true).isValid());
});
