var date = new Date();
var dateFormat =  (date.getDate().toString().length == 1? "0":'' ) + date.getDate() + (date.getMonth().toString().length == 1? "0":'' ) + date.getMonth() + "" + date.getFullYear()
var hours = ((date.getHours()%12).toString().length == 1?'0':'') + "" + (date.getHours()%12);
var minuts = ((date.getMinutes()).toString().length == 1?'0':'') + "" + (date.getMinutes());
var seconds = ((date.getSeconds()).toString().length == 1?'0':'') + "" + (date.getSeconds());
var format = (date.getHours() >= 12 && date.getHours()%12 != 0) ? 'PM':'AM'
var yourDate = dateFormat + hours + minuts + seconds + format

You could use Moment.js to achieve your desired format:

console.log( moment().format('DDMMYYYYhhmmssA') )
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/moment.js/2.21.0/moment.min.js"></script>

You can handle this quite easily by using momentjs library. The documentation is quite detailed here: https://momentjs.com/docs/#/displaying/

It will allow you to handle date formatting any way you desire.

You can download it from here: https://momentjs.com/

Without using momentJS library:

To convert the current date and time to a UNIX timestamp do the following:

var ts = Math.round((new Date()).getTime() / 1000);

getTime() returns milliseconds from the UNIX epoch, so divide it by 1000 to get the seconds representation. It is rounded using Math.round() to make it a whole number. The "ts" variable now has the UNIX timestamp for the current date and time relevent to the user's web browser.

I would suggest moment.js otherwise you can do string concatenations and calculations be careful month is 0-11 which means 3 might actually be 04 not 03.
