JavaScript Operation on Date
In JavaScript we can fetch current date and time based on the browser’s time zone. This date is displayed as a full text string.
Example: Fri May 03 2019 22:22:06 GMT+0530 (India Standard Time)
We can create a new Date object in given four ways:
| Date Object | Description | Example |
| new Date() | This method returns current date and time based on the browser’s time zone. | console.log(new Date()); Output: The current date and time will be displayed |
| new Date(year, month, day, hours, minutes, seconds, milliseconds) | This method creates a new Date object with a specified date and time. | var date = new Date(2019, 06, 07, 10, 33, 30, 0); console.log(data); Output: Sun Jul 07 2019 10:33:30 GMT+0530 (India Standard Time) |
| new Date(milliseconds) | This method adds/subtracts milliseconds mentioned here from the current date. | console.log(new Date(1000)); Output: The current date and time + 1000 milliseconds will be dispalyed |
| new Date(date string) | This method creates a new date from a date string. This date string should be of given formats only: 1. ISO Date: “2019-04-30” 2. Short Date: “04/30/2019” 3. Long Date: “Apr 30 2019” or “25 Apr 2015” | console.log(new Date(“Apr 30 2019”)); Output: Tue Apr 30 2019 00:00:00 GMT+0530 (India Standard Time) |
