convert UTC to local time using angularjs

Question

As a response from the json I am getting the UTC timezone. I need to convert it to local time.

{{trans.txnDate}}         


        

Answer 1

I had the same issue. AngularJs's date filter doesn't figure out the string is UTC format, but JavaScript Date object does. So I created a simple function in the Controller:

$scope.dateOf = function(utcDateStr) {
    return new Date(utcDateStr);
}

And then used something like:

{{ dateOf(trans.txnDate) | date: 'yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss Z'  }}

It displays the date/time in the local timezone
