Javascript date format like ISO but local

rated 0 times [ 96] [ 4] / answers: 1 / hits: 28621 / 12 Years ago, thu, september 13, 2012, 12:00:00

how do I format a javascript date like ISO format, but in local time?

with myDate.toISOString() I am getting the time as: 2012-09-13T19:12:23.826Z

but here, it is 22:13, so how do I include the timezone in above format?

I ended up doing...

pad=function(e,t,n){n=n||0,t=t||2;while((+e).length<t)e=n+e;return e}

c = new Date()

c.getFullYear()+-+pad(c.getMonth()+1)+-+pad(c.getDate()-5)+T+c.toLocaleTimeString().replace(/D/g,':')+.+pad(c.getMilliseconds(),3)

A bit of a hack but can be done in one line by taking advantage of the fact that Sweden uses a format very close to ISO:

// Returns a string like 2021-01-17T01:59:57

function dateToISOButLocal(date) {

    return date.toLocaleString('sv').replace(' ', 'T');

}

To support milliseconds:

return date.toLocaleString('sv', {year:'numeric', month:'numeric', day:'numeric', hour:'numeric', minute:'numeric', second:'numeric', fractionalSecondDigits: 3}).replace(',', '.').replace(' ', 'T');
