angularjs convert date string to human readable format

Question

I am getting the date string from server in the following format:

$scope.dateform = {
   "dob": "22-06-1980"
}

But i want to convert into GMT form using angularjs inside controller.

Sat Jun 22 1980 00:12:00 GMT+0530

Is there any way to convert?

This is fairly simple to do in angular you use the build in date feature.

In your controller store the date in a variable

$scope.dateVariable = my-non-human-date-string

In your view simply output it inside handle bars with angular's date filter attached to it.

{{dateVariable | date : "dd/MM/yy HH:mm:ss"}}

You can also find different formats for dates at the following link.

Its really simple if you use moment.js

what you have to do is

$scope.dateform = {
   "dob": "22-06-1980"
} 
var momentObj = moment($scope.dateform.dob, 'DD-MM-YYYY');

console.log(momentObj .toString()); // here you will the the format you need

here i have create a demo for you.

Simply use date filter in html code in angularjs.

Like this

date:'dd/MM/yyyy'
