How to get the whole date time in a single line not separated

Question

I need to get the date time in years,month,day,hours,minute,seconds,milliseconds in this format

201802281007475001

right now i managed to return this:

2018418112252159

This is my code:

var date = new Date();
blockid = JSON.stringify(date.getFullYear()) + JSON.stringify(date.getMonth()+1) + JSON.stringify(date.getDate()) + JSON.stringify(date.getHours()) + JSON.stringify(date.getMinutes()) + JSON.stringify(date.getSeconds()) + JSON.stringify(date.getMilliseconds())

I also need to put a zero in front of the month and the day in case it is minor than 10.

One simple way to this is to call toISOString on the date object and replace the non-required characters with blank:

var date = new Date();
console.log(date.toISOString().replace(/\D/g, ''));

omg it works, thank you very much, where did you find it? – Gargantua Apr 18 '18 at 10:11
Except that the OP seems to want local values and *toISOString* returns UTC values. If UTC is OK, then the regular expression can be simply `/\D/g`. – RobG Apr 18 '18 at 11:06
@RobG -- thanks for this. It made the code look very simple now. – 31piy Apr 18 '18 at 11:08
