Javascript string to given format

I'm getting date from JSON as string in the following format:

2015-01-03 02:30:00

I want to show it as: 3-Mar-2015 02:30 AM

Any idea, couldn't find elsewhere

Thanks

The data is a little confusing to what you are wanting to output. You said 2015-01-03 02:30:00 should be 3-Mar-2015 02:30 AM but that isn't what it will be. I assume this to be typical DB datetime field (without timezone) as YYYY-MM-DD format. So the 2015-01-03 is really 3-JAN-2015 If this is the case then the following is true.

Please give moment js a try. http://momentjs.com/

With moment it would be something like this...

function dateToStringFormat (date) {
  return moment(date).format('D-MMM-YYYY h:mm a');
}
