How to get the previous date in angular?

Question

Please help me getting the previous dates in angular 4.

currentdate: Date;
this.currentdate = new Date();
console.log(this.datePipe.transform(this.currentdate, 'yyyy-MM-dd'));

Here I got the date as 2017-11-13.

Now I need to get 2 days before date..

Try this

let dte = new Date();
dte.setDate(dte.getDate() - 2);
console.log(dte.toString());
