How to change format of this type of date "/Date(1496117136317)/" in AngularJS?

Question

Get date from controller like this /Date(1496117136317)/ in Ajax response and its datatype is datetime.

How can I convert its format?

Answer 1

It's a UNIXTIMESTAMP. You can get a Date object like this:

var date = new Date(1496117136317*1000);
var hours = date.getHours();
var minutes = "0" + date.getMinutes();
var seconds = "0" + date.getSeconds();

If you have this /Date(1496117136317)/,

var str = "/Date(1496117136317)/";
var res = str.replace("/Date(", "").replace(")/","");

and then

var date = new Date(parseInt(res)*1000);
