I have date string in this format:
2009-07-15 00:00:00 - 2009-07-15 08:16:23
Could anyone help me to tweak the date string to unix timestamp into something like this:
1247634000 - 1247663783
I am using GMT-5 Timezone.
What JavaScript or jQuery techniques could be used?
I strongly advise you to use Moment Date lib when working with dates in js. It's really light and awesome.
var timeStamp = ( moment('2009-07-15 00:00:00').unix() )*1000
moment.js, it was an immediate peace of mind. Bless the person who created moment.js!!!
Math.floor((new Date().getTime() / 1000) - moment(timestamp).unix());
moment('2009-07-15 00:00:00').unix()in Javascript you can directly pass the string to Date object constructor, like
var date = new Date('2009-07-15 00:00:00'.split(' ').join('T'))
that will give you date object and to get timestamp from it you can do
date.getTime() / 1000
dividing by 1000 because getTime will give timestamps in milliseconds
NOTE:
Firefox is not able to parse the given date time format, so we need to convert it into proper format first, for that we just need to replace space between date and time component with 'T' that will make it a valid ISO 8601 format and firefox will be able to parse it
Reference:
var input = "2009-07-15 00:00:00 - 2009-07-15 08:16:23";
input = input.split(" - ").map(function (date){
return Date.parse(date+"-0500")/1000;
}).join(" - ");
Note: This won't work on old browsers since I'm using Array.map, but I think you should easily be able to shim it.
using split method you can change the datetime formate in to date, its very simple and easy to everyone.
var str = "2017-05-09T00:00:00.000Z";
var res = str.split("-",2);
var res = str.split("T",1);
var temp=res;
