toLocaleDateString is not defined how to fix?

Question

This is one module that I have put in the views folder for ejs to render and I wish to use it to get date for my site. This is my code:

module.exports = getDate;
function getDate(){
  let today = new Date();
  let options = {weekday: "long", day: "numeric", month: "long"};
  let date = toLocaleDateString("en-US", options);
  return date;
}

Answer 1

Here you made a simple mistake. (toLocaleDateString) is a property of the date object. That's why you get undefined. The below code is now workable.

 function getDate(){ let today = new Date(); let options = {weekday: "long", day: "numeric", month: "long"}; let date = today.toLocaleDateString("en-US", options); return date; }
