Convert date object in dd/mm/yyyy hh:mm:ss format [duplicate]

Question

I have a datetime object and its value is as follows

2017-03-16T17:46:53.677

Can someone please let me know how to convert this to dd/mm/yyyy hh:mm:ss format I googled a lott and could not find format conversion for this particular input.

Answer 1

You can fully format the string as mentioned in other posts. But I think your better off using the locale functions in the date object?

var d = new Date("2017-03-16T17:46:53.677"); 
console.log( d.toLocaleString() ); 

edit :

ISO 8601 ( the format you are constructing with ) states the time zone is appended at the end with a [{+|-}hh][:mm] at the end of the string.

so you could do this :

var tzOffset = "+07:00" 
var d = new Date("2017-03-16T17:46:53.677"+ tzOffset);
console.log(d.toLocaleString());
var d = new Date("2017-03-16T17:46:53.677"); //  assumes local time. 
console.log(d.toLocaleString());
var d = new Date("2017-03-16T17:46:53.677Z"); // UTC time
console.log(d.toLocaleString());

edit :

Just so you know the locale function displays the date and time in the manner of the users language and location. European date is dd/mm/yyyy and US is mm/dd/yyyy.

var d = new Date("2017-03-16T17:46:53.677");
console.log(d.toLocaleString("en-US"));
console.log(d.toLocaleString("en-GB"));
