converting date from a given format to yyyy-mm-dd in momentjs

Question

I have the date in this format.I am using format() of monentjs. Currently mydate is in this format 2018-10-11T16:31:27+05:30

let newdate=let newdate=this.state.startDate.format();

I want to get this date in this format 2018-10-22. I tried using this

let formatfun=(date)=>{
      let x=moment(date,"moment.HTML5_FMT.DATE");
      return x;
    }

but could not reach there .

Answer 1

const newdate = "2018-10-11T16:31:27+05:30"; // this.state.startDate.format();
const formatfun = date => {
    return date.substr(0, 10);
}
console.log(formatfun(newdate));

Would this help? Just taking the first 10 chars of your date string.

Or if it is of date type, look over at Format JavaScript Date to yyyy-mm-dd (possible duplicate).

}

let date = '2018-10-22T16:31:27+05:30';
console.log(date);
