Remove Seconds/ Milliseconds from Date convert to ISO String

Question

I have a date object that I want to

1. remove the miliseconds/or set to 0
2. remove the seconds/or set to 0
3. Convert to ISO string

For example:

var date = new Date(); //Wed Mar 02 2016 16:54:13 GMT-0500 (EST)  var stringDate = moment(date).toISOString(); //2016-03-02T21:54:13.537Z 

But what I really want in the end is

stringDate = '2016-03-02T21:54:00.000Z' 

Answer 1

While this is easily solvable with plain JavaScript (see RobG's answer), I wanted to show you the Moment.js solution since you tagged your questions as "momentjs":

moment().seconds(0).milliseconds(0).toISOString(); 

This gives you the current datetime, without seconds or milliseconds.
