function formatDate (d,f){return f.replace(/{(.+?)(?::(.*?))?}/g,function(v,c,p){for(v=d["get"+c]()+/h/.test(c)+"";v.length<p;v=0+v);return v})} | |
// Formats the date as a string e.g. "24/08/2013 17:04" | |
var formattedDate = formatDate(parsedDate, "{Date:2}/{Month:2}/{FullYear} {Hours:2}:{Minutes:2}"); | |
//Instead of using classical format specifiers like "YYYY", "MM", "HH", "mm" etc. | |
//this function uses the Date instance getters like getFullYear, getMonth, etc. | |
//with support for zero-padding. | |
//For example, instead of: | |
//"YYYY-MM-DD HH:mm:ss" | |
//you can use: | |
//"{FullYear}-{Month:2}-{Date:2} {Hours:2}:{Minutes:2}:{Seconds:2}" |
