How To Convert String ' dd/mm/yy hh:MM:ss ' to Date in javascript?

I have Done this 

    var d='dd/mm/yy hh:MM:ss';
    var d1=d.split(" ");
    var date=d1[0].split("/");
    var time=d1[1].split(":");
    var dd=date[0];
    var mm=date[1]-1;
    var yy=date[2];
    var hh=time[0];
    var min=time[1];
    var ss=time[2];
    var fromdt= new Date("20"+yy,mm-1,dd,hh,min,ss);

Is there Any way to do it using JQuery OR JavaScript?

now you can use toLocaleTimeString to format date without using moment or any package. read more for example

console.log(new Date().toLocaleTimeString(
    'en-US', { second: '2-digit', minute: '2-digit', hour12: false }))

Thanks, @sean-coley, your answer helped a lot, but it gives me changed (local) time with different timezone. I would also add Date.UTC to the new Date function so the result time will be the same as in input

let dtStr = "12/03/2010 09:55:35"

console.log(strToDate(dtStr));  // Fri Mar 12 2010 09:55:35

function strToDate(dtStr) {
  if (!dtStr) return null
  let dateParts = dtStr.split("/");
  let timeParts = dateParts[2].split(" ")[1].split(":");
  dateParts[2] = dateParts[2].split(" ")[0];
  // month is 0-based, that's why we need dataParts[1] - 1
  return dateObject = new Date(Date.UTC(+dateParts[2], dateParts[1] - 1, +dateParts[0], timeParts[0], timeParts[1], timeParts[2]));
}

This will work regardless of timezone for the format dd/mm/yyy hh:mm:ss only. It also does not rely on third party packages:

let dtStr = "12/03/2010 09:55:35"

console.log(strToDate(dtStr));  // Fri Mar 12 2010 09:55:35

function strToDate(dtStr) {
  if (!dtStr) return null
  let dateParts = dtStr.split("/");
  let timeParts = dateParts[2].split(" ")[1].split(":");
  dateParts[2] = dateParts[2].split(" ")[0];
  // month is 0-based, that's why we need dataParts[1] - 1
  return dateObject = new Date(+dateParts[2], dateParts[1] - 1, +dateParts[0], timeParts[0], timeParts[1], timeParts[2]);
}

We can convert any local date format to datetime datatype using moment js.

Syntax:

moment('<local date value>','<local date format>').format('<expected convert format>')

Example:

moment('26/05/1986 00:00', 'DD/MM/YYYY HH:mm').format("MM/DD/YYYY HH:mm");

then the output will be 05/26/1986 00:00

Cheers

From your code it seems that you are trying to convert string into date and also you are trying to fetch previous month. If yes then you can reconstruct your code as below:

Date.prototype.SubtractMonth = function(numberOfMonths) {
var d = this;
d.setMonth(d.getMonth() - numberOfMonths);
return d;
}

$(document).ready(function() {
     var dateString='2015-06-17T18:30:12';
    var d = new Date(dateString);
    alert(d.SubtractMonth(1));
});

If you are looking for alternatives in jquery or Javascript , then you can go with Moment.js,where you can Parse, Validate, Manipulate, and Display dates in JavaScript.

example:

  var date= moment("06/06/2015 11:11:11").format('DD-MMM-YYYY');

Date#parse should be able to parse that if you split on a string. Id also recommend looking into the npm package moment for date manipulation

How about Date.parse()?

new Date( Date.parse("05/12/05 11:11:11") );
// Thu May 12 2005 11:11:11 GMT+0200 (CEST)

The output produced is in local timezone and will differ in browsers in different timezones.
