How can I format a json date in dd/mm/yy format in javascript?

Question

I have a json date like \/Date(1334514600000)\/ in my response and when I convert it in javascript then I got this date Tue Apr 17 2012 11:37:10 GMT+0530 (India Standard Time), but I need the date format like 17/04/2012 and I fail every time. Can anyone tell me how can I resolve it?

Answer 1

I don't think that the other posted answers are quite right, you have already accepted one as working for you so I won't edit it.

Here is an updated version of your accepted answer.

var dateString = "\/Date(1334514600000)\/".substr(6);
var currentTime = new Date(parseInt(dateString ));
var month = currentTime.getMonth() + 1;
var day = currentTime.getDate();
var year = currentTime.getFullYear();
var date = day + "/" + month + "/" + year;
alert(date);

It uses a technique from this answer to extract the epoch from the JSON date.

Answer 2

I found very helpful the row1 answer, however i got stuck on the format for input type="date" as only returns one string for decimals under 10, I was able to modify to work on input type="date", I basically adapted the code from row1 to the code from the link http://venkatbaggu.com/convert-json-date-to-date-format-in-jquery/

I was able through jquery .val add the date to the input

var dateString = "\/Date(1334514600000)\/".substr(6);
var currentTime = new Date(parseInt(dateString));
var month = ("0" + (currentTime.getMonth() + 1)).slice(-2);
var day = ("0" + currentTime.getDate()).slice(-2);
var year = currentTime.getFullYear();
var date = year + '-' + month + '-' + day;
alert(date);

It's answer to your question...

Build the date object with your timestamp

var currentTime = new Date(1334514600000)
var month = currentTime.getMonth() + 1
var day = currentTime.getDate()
var year = currentTime.getFullYear()
var date = day + "/" + month + "/" + year
alert(date);​

Answer 6

//parse JSON formatted date to javascript date object
var bdate = new Date(parseInt(emp.Birthdate.substr(6)));

//format display date (e.g. 04/10/2012)
var displayDate = $.datepicker.formatDate("mm/dd/yy", bdate);

Answer 7

Easiest way of formatting date is by using pipes if you are using Angular. Click here

//in .ts file
ngOnInit() {
 this.currentDate = new Date()
}
//in html file
<p>Current date is:</p>{{currentDate | date: 'dd/MM/yyyy'}}

//Output: 22/04/2020
