How to convert March 10, 2017 to (dd,mm,yyyy) format?

Question

My output consists below format February 9, 2017

How to Convert the above format to (dd,mm,yyyy) format.

Thanks in advance.

There's a lot of extremely quirky date formats out there, but that's even more unusual than most. Is that a custom thing? — tadman, Mar 10 '17 at 03:52
this question is quite vague. is your "output" a formatted `Date` object, or a `string`? are you trying to display the output differently, or trying to store the value differently? — Claies, Mar 10 '17 at 03:54

You can try this method :

function formattedDate(d = new Date) {
  let month = String(d.getMonth() + 1);
  let day = String(d.getDate());
  const year = String(d.getFullYear());

  if (month.length < 2) month = '0' + month;
  if (day.length < 2) day = '0' + day;

  return `${day},${month}/${year}`;
}

So how would you use your code with this very input: `'March 10, 2017'` that is a string? – zerkms Mar 10 '17 at 03:53

You can try with below solution:

function dateFormat(stringDate){
  var date = new Date(stringDate);
  var day = (date.getDate()>9) ? date.getDate() : "0" + date.getDate();
  var month = date.getMonth() + 1;
  month = (month>9) ? month : "0" + month;
  var year = date.getFullYear();
  // format your date as you expect
  var dateFormat = "("+year+","+month+","+day+")";
  return dateFormat;
}

var stringDate = "March 10, 2017";
var reFormat = dateFormat(stringDate);
console.log(stringDate + " => " + reFormat);

Try as below if you prefer "dd/MM/YYYY" format

function formatDate()
{
   var str = "February 9, 2017";
   var varDate = new Date(str);
   var d = varDate.getDate();
   var m = varDate.getMonth() + 1;
   var y = varDate.getFullYear();
   var dateString = (d <= 9 ? '0' + d : d) + '/' + (m <= 9 ? '0' + m : m) + '/' + y;   
   alert(dateString);
   return false;
}

Try this if you prefer "MM/dd/YYYY" format :

function formatDate()
{
  var str = "February 9, 2017";
  var varDate = new Date(str);
  alert(varDate.toLocaleDateString());   // "MM/dd/YYYY" format
  return false;
}
