how to convert UTC date more efficiently?

Question

I want to convert to date to UTC due to cookie set expires date.

const date = new Date();
date.setDate(date.getDate() + 1); // 1days add
$.cookie('AA', '', {
      expires: new Date(Date.UTC(date.getFullYear(), date.getMonth(), 
      date.getDate(), date.getHours(), date.getMinutes(), date.getSeconds())),
    });

This code works well.. But, I want to know efficient and compact code! Pleae tell me the other opinions!!

You can simply call date.getUTCDate() to get the UTC date instance. See this documentation.

So your code will be like:

const date = new Date();
date.setDate(date.getDate() + 1); // 1days add
$.cookie('AA', '', {
   expires: date.toUTCString(),
});

getUTCDate returns date. I wan to get total dates. for example Thu Oct 24 2019 08:59:59 GMT+0900 (한국 표준시) – zuuuuuuuu Oct 23 '19 at 05:18
Then you can use, `date.toUTCString()` – Imesha Sudasingha Oct 23 '19 at 05:26
I want to get date object. not string – zuuuuuuuu Oct 23 '19 at 05:36
In that case, you don't have to worry that much. Please refer https://stackoverflow.com/questions/13154552/javascript-set-cookie-with-expire-time. Using the `toUTCString()` will work. I will update the answer accordingly – Imesha Sudasingha Oct 23 '19 at 05:55
