I am using datetime pipe to format the time and displaying in template. But I want to get the same time in my component. How to achieve this?
Here is the stackblitz : https://stackblitz.com/edit/angular-sb3ekr
I want to get the displayed date time in app.component.ts using some variable. Please tell me how to do this?

I solved it using ViewChild and ElementRef, here it is what I have changed,
HTML,
<span #dtime> {{ today | date :'dd-MM-yyyy hh:mm:ss'}}</span>
Component,
today: number = Date.now();
dateT: string = undefined;
@ViewChild("dtime", {read: ElementRef}) dtime: ElementRef;
ngAfterViewInit(): void {
this.dateT = this.dtime.nativeElement.textContent;
// console.log(this.dtime.nativeElement.textContent);
console.log(this.dateT);
}

You can use DatePipe in your component.
var tmp = new DatePipe('en-Us').transform(this.today, 'dd:MM:yyyy hh-mm-ss');
