Format Date as "yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ss.SSS'Z'"
Call the toISOString() method:
var dt = new Date("30 July 2010 15:05 UTC");document.write(dt.toISOString());// Output:// 2010-07-30T15:05:00.000Z
toISOString() will return current UTC time only not the current local time. If you want to get the current local time in yyyy-MM-ddTHH:mm:ss.SSSZ format then you should get the current time using following two methods
Method 1:
console.log(new Date(new Date().toString().split('GMT')[0]+' UTC').toISOString());Method 2:
console.log(new Date(new Date().getTime() - new Date().getTimezoneOffset() * 60000).toISOString());
function converToLocalTime(serverDate) { var dt = new Date(Date.parse(serverDate)); var localDate = dt; var gmt = localDate; var min = gmt.getTime() / 1000 / 60; // convert gmt date to minutes var localNow = new Date().getTimezoneOffset(); // get the timezone // offset in minutes var localTime = min - localNow; // get the local time var dateStr = new Date(localTime * 1000 * 60); // dateStr = dateStr.toISOString("yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ss.SSS'Z'"); // this will return as just the server date format i.e., yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ss.SSS'Z' dateStr = dateStr.toString("yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ss.SSS'Z'"); return dateStr;}
