I want to convert date to timestamp, my input is 26-02-2012. I used
new Date(myDate).getTime();
It says NaN.. Can any one tell how to convert this?
Split the string into its parts and provide them directly to the Date constructor:
Update:
var myDate = "26-02-2012";
myDate = myDate.split("-");
var newDate = new Date( myDate[2], myDate[1] - 1, myDate[0]);
console.log(newDate.getTime());
Try this function, it uses the Date.parse() method and doesn't require any custom logic:
function toTimestamp(strDate){
var datum = Date.parse(strDate);
return datum/1000;
}
alert(toTimestamp('02/13/2009 23:31:30'));
this refactored code will do it
let toTimestamp = strDate => Date.parse(strDate)
this works on all modern browsers except ie8-
There are two problems here.
First, you can only call getTime on an instance of the date. You need to wrap new Date in brackets or assign it to variable.
Second, you need to pass it a string in a proper format.
Working example:
(new Date("2012-02-26")).getTime();
UPDATE: In case you came here looking for current timestamp
Date.now(); //as suggested by Wilt
or
var date = new Date();
var timestamp = date.getTime();
or simply
new Date().getTime();
/* console.log(new Date().getTime()); */
You need just to reverse your date digit and change - with ,:
new Date(2012,01,26).getTime(); // 02 becomes 01 because getMonth() method returns the month (from 0 to 11)
In your case:
var myDate="26-02-2012";
myDate=myDate.split("-");
new Date(parseInt(myDate[2], 10), parseInt(myDate[1], 10) - 1 , parseInt(myDate[0]), 10).getTime();
P.S. UK locale does not matter here.
To convert (ISO) date to Unix timestamp, I ended up with a timestamp 3 characters longer than needed so my year was somewhere around 50k...
I had to devide it by 1000:
new Date('2012-02-26').getTime() / 1000
function getTimeStamp() {
var now = new Date();
return ((now.getMonth() + 1) + '/' + (now.getDate()) + '/' + now.getFullYear() + " " + now.getHours() + ':'
+ ((now.getMinutes() < 10) ? ("0" + now.getMinutes()) : (now.getMinutes())) + ':' + ((now.getSeconds() < 10) ? ("0" + now
.getSeconds()) : (now.getSeconds())));
}
For those who wants to have readable timestamp in format of, yyyymmddHHMMSS
> (new Date()).toISOString().replace(/[^\d]/g,'') // "20190220044724404"
> (new Date()).toISOString().replace(/[^\d]/g,'').slice(0, -3) // "20190220044724"
> (new Date()).toISOString().replace(/[^\d]/g,'').slice(0, -9) // "20190220"
Usage example: a backup file extension. /my/path/my.file.js.20190220
Your string isn't in a format that the Date object is specified to handle. You'll have to parse it yourself, use a date parsing library like MomentJS or the older (and not currently maintained, as far as I can tell) DateJS, or massage it into the correct format (e.g., 2012-02-29) before asking Date to parse it.
Why you're getting NaN: When you ask new Date(...) to handle an invalid string, it returns a Date object which is set to an invalid date (new Date("29-02-2012").toString() returns "Invalid date"). Calling getTime() on a date object in this state returns NaN.

Date.parse("2022-08-04T04:02:10.909Z")

function datetotime(template, date){
date = date.split( template[1] );
template = template.split( template[1] );
date = date[ template.indexOf('m') ]
+ "/" + date[ template.indexOf('d') ]
+ "/" + date[ template.indexOf('Y') ];
return (new Date(date).getTime());
}
The below code will convert the current date into the timestamp.
var currentTimeStamp = Date.parse(new Date());
console.log(currentTimeStamp);
The first answer is fine however Using react typescript would complain because of split('')
for me the method tha worked better was.
parseInt((new Date("2021-07-22").getTime() / 1000).toFixed(0))
Happy to help.
In some cases, it appears that some dates are stubborn, that is, even with a date format, like "2022-06-29 15:16:21", you still get null or NaN. I got to resolve mine by including a "T" in the empty space, that is:
const inputDate = "2022-06-29 15:16:21";
const newInputDate = inputDate.replace(" ", "T");
const timeStamp = new Date(newInputDate).getTime();
And this worked fine for me! Cheers!
It should have been in this standard date format YYYY-MM-DD, to use below equation. You may have time along with example: 2020-04-24 16:51:56 or 2020-04-24T16:51:56+05:30. It will work fine but date format should like this YYYY-MM-DD only.
var myDate = "2020-04-24";
var timestamp = +new Date(myDate)
You can use valueOf method
new Date().valueOf()

Here I am converting the current date to timestamp and then I take the timestamp and convert it to the current date back, with us showing how to convert date to timestamp and timestamp to date.
The simplest and accurate way would be to add the unary operator before the date
console.log(`Time stamp is: ${Number(+new Date())}`)
Answers have been provided by other developers but in my own way, you can do this on the fly without creating any user defined function as follows:
var timestamp = Date.parse("26-02-2012".split('-').reverse().join('-'));
alert(timestamp); // returns 1330214400000
Simply performing some arithmetic on a Date object will return the timestamp as a number. This is useful for compact notation. I find this is the easiest way to remember, as the method also works for converting numbers cast as string types back to number types.
let d = new Date();
console.log(d, d * 1);
This would do the trick if you need to add time also
new Date('2021-07-22 07:47:05.842442+00').getTime()
This would also work without Time
new Date('2021-07-22 07:47:05.842442+00').getTime()
This would also work but it won't Accept Time
new Date('2021/07/22').getTime()
And Lastly if all did not work use this
new Date(year, month, day, hours, minutes, seconds, milliseconds)
Note for Month it the count starts at 0 so Jan === 0 and Dec === 11
+new Date(myDate)
this should convert myDate to timeStamp
I have date and time format in this form:
1628489237000
I want in the below format:
DD/MM/YYYY and time.
I want to use that in javascript.
Just like this for date:
new Date(1628489237000).toLocaleDateString()
or for time:
new Date(1628489237000).toLocaleTimeString()
If you can use library, I would like to recommend you dayjs
with dayjs,
dayjs().format('DD/MM/YYYY') // 10/08/2021'
var timestamp = 1607110465663;
var date = new Date(timestamp);
var month=''+date.getMonth();
var day=''+date.getDate();
if (month.length < 2)
month = '0' + month;
if (day.length < 2)
day = '0' + day;
console.log("Date: "+day+
"/"+month+
"/"+date.getFullYear()+
" "+date.getHours()+
":"+date.getMinutes()+
":"+date.getSeconds());
if yout want to time to hh/mm/ss you can convert with condition "length"
There is also a solution that uses momentjs library:
console.log(moment(1628489237000).format('DD/MM/YYYY'))
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/moment.js/2.17.1/moment.min.js"></script>
DateTime.Now.ToString("MM/dd/yyyy")
No need for any library for your case, especially not moment.js. You can read more about the project status here
var timestamp = 1628489237000;
// Create date from timestamp
var date = new Date(timestamp);
// Format date
var formattedDate = date.toLocaleDateString('fr');
var formattedTime = date.toLocaleTimeString('fr');
// Print results
console.log(formattedDate); // "09/08/2021"
console.log(formattedTime); // "8:07:17 AM"
console.log(`${formattedDate} ${formattedTime}`); // "09/08/2021 8:07:17 AM"
I have a string 10/11/2012 meaning November 10, 2012.
But when I do new Date("10/11/2012") it returns October 11th.
How do I pass in the date format I want? In this case dd-mm-yyyy
I found jQuery.datepicker.parseDate(format, Date) at this site:
http://docs.jquery.com/UI/Datepicker/$.datepicker.parseDate
So I will be using the jQuery datepicker instead.
Unfortunately, there's no JavaScript Date constructor that allows you to pass in culture information so that it uses localized date formats. Your best bet is to use the constructor that takes the year, month, and day separately:
var parts = dateString.split('/');
var date = new Date(parseInt(parts[2], 10),
parseInt(parts[1], 10),
parseInt(parts[0], 10));
For this specific case, you can use:
var dateparts = date.split("/");
var datestring = dateparts[1] + "/" + dateparts[0] + "/" + dateparts[2];
var date = new Date(datestring);
In the more general case, you can extend the Date prototype, as demonstrated in this answer:

I need to convert a date in yyyy-mm-dd like 2011-12-30 to UTC using only javascript. How?
var utc = new Date('2011-12-30').toUTCString();
jsFiddle.
If you're having problems getting the other listed solution to work in firefox or safari you can use: http://www.datejs.com/
myDate = new Date.parse("2011-12-30")
myUTCDate = Date.UTC(myDate.getFullYear(), myDate.getMonth(), myDate.getDate(), myDate.getHours(), myDate.getMinutes(), myDate.getSeconds(), myDate.getMilliseconds());
Voila!!
This is very simple method to convert String to Date in JavaScript
var msomtDate = Date.parse('Here Your Date String'+' UTC',"yyyy/MM/dd HH:mm:ss");
var toUTC = function (date) {
var newDate = new Date();
newDate.setTime(date.getTime() + (date.getTimezoneOffset() * 60 * 1000));
return newDate;
};
console.log(toUTC(new Date('2011-12-30')));
