[removed] convert 24-hour time-of-day string to 12-hour time with AM/PM and no timezone

Question

The server is sending a string in this format: 18:00:00. This is a time-of-day value independent of any date. How to convert it to 6:00PM in Javasc

Answer 1

This might help to format if you are using ES6.
Below code snippet will ignore the seconds. If you want to consider seconds you can add that as the first parameter.

   const formatFrom24Hrsto12Hrs = (time, ignoreZero = true) => {
      let [hours, minutes] = time.split(':')
      let modifier = +hours < 12 ? 'am' : 'pm'
      hours = +hours % 12 || 12
      minutes = ignoreZero && +minutes === 0 ? '' : `:${minutes}`
      return hours + minutes + modifier
    }
