How do I return the local time portion of a string given a date string-CodePudding

I am wanting to display in a react native app a date given by the API.

The API is returning the following value: "2022-06-20T14:00:00.000"

I need to display to the user 2:00 PM

The problem is that when I try this:

const dateString = "2022-06-20T14:00:00.000"
const date = new Date(dateString);
console.log(date)

The date has been changed to: 2022-06-20T14:00:00.000Z

Meaning it is 2pm UTC time when it should be 2pm local time.

CodePudding user response：

On the end of the new Date variable, if you add the .toLocaleTimeString(), it should then output as 2:00:00PM.

const date = new Date(dateString).toLocaleTimeString();

CodePudding user response：

you can use moment library with its localized formats, here is the documentation for more of its formats https://momentjscom.readthedocs.io/en/latest/moment/04-displaying/01-format/

const dateString = "2022-06-20T14:00:00.000"
console.log(moment(dateString).format('LT'))
