How to insert moment JS time into MySQL - javascript

//In Node/JS
myDate = moment(data.myTime.format('YYYY/MM/DD HH:MM:SS')).toISOString();
//myDate shows '2014-09-24T04:09:00.000Z'
Insert INTO (dateColumn..) Values(myDate)...
This is the error I get after inserting, note column in Mysql is a "datetime" type.
MySQL Error:: { [Error: ER_TRUNCATED_WRONG_VALUE: Incorrect datetime value: '2014-09- 24T04:09:00.000Z' for column '_dateColumn' at row 1]
code: 'ER_TRUNCATED_WRONG_VALUE',

This result happens because you are using the toISOString() method and it is not a valid format to insert into your DATETIME column. The correct format probably is YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS(I think it depends on MySQL configuration, but this is the default) as the docs points out.
So you should try using moment's format() method like this:
myDate = moment(data.myTime.format('YYYY/MM/DD HH:mm:ss')).format("YYYY-MM-DD HH:mm:ss");
In fact, I don't know what data.myTime is, but if its a moment object too, you can change the first format() method and remove the second one.

DontVoteMeDown answer is right, except that the minutes 'mm' and seconds 'ss' need to be in lowercase, otherwise a wrong value is returned:
myDate = moment(new Date()).format("YYYY-MM-DD HH:mm:ss");
Also, you should check the value sent by javascript before to do your SQL query, in PHP:
DateTime::createFromFormat('Y-m-d H:i:s', $myDate);
Will return false if the date is misformatted.

Here's a function extension to format it into the MySQL DateTime format
moment.prototype.toMySqlDateTime = function () {
return this.format('YYYY-MM-DD HH:mm:ss');
};
You'll be able to do: moment().toMySqlDateTime();

(I'm working with Node.js, Express and MySql and this has worked for me:)
var momentDate=new moment('2018-08-31T20:13:00.000Z');
var readyToInsert=momentDate.format("YYYY-MM-DD HH:mm:ss");

To generate mysql format datetime you can use this:
var moment = require('moment');
let currentTimestamp = moment().unix();//in seconds
let currentDatetime = moment(currentTimestamp*1000).format("YYYY-MM-DD HH:mm:ss");//mysql datetime.
currentTimestamp = moment(currentDatetime).valueOf();//current timestamp in milliseconds

moment().format("YYYY-MM-DD HH:mm:ss")

I think this is the correct format. Otherwise you get the months inserted in your minutes, and you also get seconds above 60.
myDate = moment(data.myTime.format('YYYY/MM/DD HH:MM:ss')).format("YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS");
Tested in Chrome with Moment.js 2.9.0

Get date time in specific format in moment js

I am trying to get the date time in moment js in this format :
2016-12-19T09:43:45.672Z
The problem is I am able to get the time format as
2016-12-19T15:04:09+05:30
using
moment().format();
but I need the format as the first one [like .672Z instead of +05:30]. Any suggestions would be of great help.
From the documentation on the format method:
To escape characters in format strings, you can wrap the characters in square brackets.
Since "Z" is a format token for the timezone, you need to escape it. So the format string you are after is:
moment().format('YYYY-MM-DD[T]HH:mm:ss.SSS[Z]');
As #VincenzoC said in a comment, the toISOString() method would also give you the format you are after.
Use moment.utc() to display time in UTC time instead of local time:
var dateValue = moment().utc().format('YYYY-MM-DDTHH:mm:ss') + 'Z';
or moment().toISOString() to display a string in ISO format (format: YYYY-MM-DDTHH:mm:ss.sssZ, the timezone is always UTC):
var dateValue = moment().toISOString();
Try this
const start_date = '2018-09-30';
const t = moment(start_date).utc().format();
console.log(t);
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/moment.js/2.22.2/moment.min.js"></script>
var dateTime = new Date("2015-06-17 14:24:36");
dateTime = moment(dateTime).format("YYYY-MM-DD HH:mm:ss");
Try this. You should have the date in the correct format.

Extract epoch from moment object

I am trying to extract the unix timestamp (epoch) from a date string as follows:
var week = $("#week").val();
var timestamp = moment(week).format("X");
console.log(timestamp);
This returns, in the console "Invalid Date".
I am passing the following format: "03-Nov-16"
I am trying to return the unix timestamp of a date.
Any help on this would be appreciated.
You need to tell moment the format of the date string you're trying to parse. I think you're looking for something like this (not tested):
var timestamp = moment("03-Nov-16", "DD-MMM-YY").unix()
See the official docs on date string parsing for more info.

DD/MM/YYYY Date format in Moment.js

How can i change the current date to this format(DD/MM/YYYY) using moment.js?
I have tried below code.
$scope.SearchDate = moment(new Date(), "DD/MM/YYYY");
But it's return 0037-11-24T18:30:00.000Z. Did't help to format current date.
You need to call format() function to get the formatted value
$scope.SearchDate = moment(new Date()).format("DD/MM/YYYY")
//or $scope.SearchDate = moment().format("DD/MM/YYYY")
The syntax you have used is used to parse a given string to date object by using the specified formate
You can use this
moment().format("DD/MM/YYYY");
However, this returns a date string in the specified format for today, not a moment date object. Doing the following will make it a moment date object in the format you want.
var someDateString = moment().format("DD/MM/YYYY");
var someDate = moment(someDateString, "DD/MM/YYYY");
This worked for me
var dateToFormat = "2018-05-16 12:57:13"; //TIMESTAMP
moment(dateToFormat).format("DD/MM/YYYY"); // you get "16/05/2018"
This actually worked for me:
moment(mydate).format('L');
for anyone who's using react-moment:
simply use format prop to your needed format:
const now = new Date()
<Moment format="DD/MM/YYYY">{now}</Moment>
A safe way to do this
moment.locale('en-US');
moment().format("L");
"06/23/2021"
moment.locale('fr');
moment().format("L");
"23/06/2021"

Data conversion using Node JS

I'm using the module dataformat to get a data from a timestamp but I get an error and I can't understand why.
that's the timestamp 1405303200 and I need the Date in this format dd/mm/yyyy
That's my code
var day=dateFormat(result.request_date, "dd/mm/yyyy");
But what I get is the 1970-01-17 date asd.
I think you are using a timestamp saved by PHP... now convert it to miliseconds
var timestamp = 1405303200 *1000;

moment js cannot change date string to new format

I have the following HTML:
<strong id="ut-open-date">27/06/2014</strong>
and I want to read the text/innerhtml and convert its format to "YYYY-MM-DD" so I can insert it into MySQL table. I am using the moment.js library and my code is below:
var CreateDate = moment(jQuery('#ut-open-date').html()).format("DD/MM/YYYY");
CreateDate = moment(CreateDate).format("YYYY-MM-DD");
But the code changes 27/06/2014 to 2016-06-03 and I cannot work out why.
I also tried this code with the same result.
var CreateDate = moment(jQuery('#ut-open-date').html()).format("YYYY-MM-DD");
Any help is appreciated.
If we break down your code step by step you can see where it is going wrong:
var CreateDate = moment(jQuery('#ut-open-date').html())
This part uses the default constructor to try to parse the date, this is unreliable at best and has been deprecated. So moment is trying to guess what the date format is here.
.format("DD/MM/YYYY");
This is taking what ever was read in step 1 and trying to turn it into a string with the format of DD/MM/YYYY
CreateDate = moment(CreateDate)
Now you are parsing again without specifying the format so moment is doing it's best to guess
.format("YYYY-MM-DD");
Now you have told it to turn whatever it guessed the date to be into a string with the format YYYY-MM-DD
Do this instead:
var CreateDate = moment(jQuery('#ut-open-date').html(), 'DD/MM/YYYY').format('YYYY-MM-DD');
The moment(dateString) form is deprecated you should use the form moment(dateString, expectedFormat) instead.
See moment documentation here: http://momentjs.com/docs/#/parsing/string-format/
Thanks to athms for link
The problem is you need to tell moment.js what format for date string you want parse by specifying second parameter. See all the supported format. If your format is not listed (See the Open Issue for NON-ISO strings), you need to specify the date format parameter.
moment( jQuery('#ut-open-date').html(), "DD/MM/YYYY" )
DEMO
I solved it by using split as follows:
var CreateDate = jQuery('#ut-open-date').text();
var DateArray = CreateDate.split('/');
CreateDate = DateArray[2] + '-' + DateArray[1] + '-' + DateArray[0];
