在javascript中将日期转换为其他格式

Question

I am getting a date and a time from 2 input boxes with datebox plugin.

I have the date as "16-01-2015" and time as "11:37 AM". I need to send both to my server to add to the database but my database need the date in format: "2015-01-16 21:11:00"

How can I convert my both strings in a date or a string with the other format? I also need to convert 12 hour time to 24h time.

Answer 1

Using moment.js :

var dateInitial = "16-01-2015";
var timeInitial = "11:37 AM";

//Parse the date as String to Moment
var dateAsMoment = moment(dateInitial + " " + timeInitial, 'DD-MM-YYYY HH:mm A');

//Parse the date as Moment to String in the desired format
var dateToSend = dateAsMoment.format('YYYY-MM-DD HH:mm:ss')

Answer 2

// You can reverse the numbers in the date and adjust the hours as needed.

function parsedaytime(inputday, inputtime){
    var dstr= inputday.value.split('-').reverse().join('-'), 
    tstr= inputtime.value.split(/:| /), 
    ampm= tstr.pop();

    if(ampm== 'PM' && tstr[0]!== '12') tstr[0]-=-12;
    return '"'+dstr+' '+tstr.join(':')+'"';
}

var inputday={value: "16-01-2015"}, inputtime={value: "11:37 PM"}; parsedaytime(inputday,inputtime)

returned value: (String) "2015-01-16 23:37"
