javascript - Formatting Date Time toDateString in Typescript - Stack Overflow

文章数量:1022864

I searched through other questions, but couldn't find any other problem like this one.

I am learning to work with interfaces and classes in typescript. I am using the toDateString method, and I am getting the right output as far as the date string format, but I am not getting the right date that I have defined as parameters in the class instantiation. After brain storming and getting a migraine, I think I fixed the problem, but I'm not sure if it was the right approach, or if there is a better way.

This is my interface which it has the currentDate object and a printDate method defined and with a type of void.

interface appointment{
currentDate:Date;
printDate():void;

}

Then the class AppointmentDateFormatter which implements appointment interface. In the constructor I have defined number types to the year, month and day

class AppointmentDateFormatter implements appointment{
currentDate:Date;

constructor(year:number, month:number, day:number){
    this.currentDate = new Date(year, month, day );

Now here, I use the printDate() method with the type of void: to log to the console the date formatted using the toDateString() method.

}
printDate():void {
    console.log(this.currentDate.toDateString());
}

In the class instantiation I set the parameters of the date I want to log to the console.

const AppointmentDate = new AppointmentDateFormatter(2019, 10 , 28);

AppointmentDate.printDate();

But I get the wrong date back---> Thu Nov 28 2019 instead of Oct which it's the month it should've logged to the console. Since I noticed that it was giving me a month ahead, I decided to put a minus 1 to the number 10 and I thought it would make sense since the 10 is actually of type number, I would get as a result the actual month 10 which it's October and surprisingly it worked!

const AppointmentDate = new AppointmentDateFormatter(2019, 10 - 1 , 28);

I'd just like to know if this approach is the right one, and if there was something else I could've done that would be considered a more proper way of acplishing the expected result. I'd truly appreciate your answers.

This is the entire code with the (2019, 10 - 1, 28) moderation included.

In typescript or javascript date month start with (0 to 11). hence when you pass new Date(2019,10,28) means this is Nov month.

So, you have to write the logic in a way that new Date() should give you the right date..

and instead on .ToDateString(), I will suggest you to use angular datePipe.

this.datepipe.transform(new Date(2019,10,28) , 'yyyy-MM-dd') // syntax for datepipe

make sure if you have injected the datepipe in angular class constructor.

Full Example

export class AppComponent {

  constructor(
    private datePipe: DatePipe,
  )
  convertDateToFormat() {
    const dateIs = this.datePipe.transform(new Date(2019, 10, 28), 'yyyyMMdd');
  }
}

Note: import { DatePipe } from '@angular/mon';
