How to convert hours and minutes to minutes with moment.js?

Question

I need to convert hours and minutes in minutes values. With pure JavaScript Date object I do the following:

var d = new Date();
var minutes = d.getHours() *

For those seeking to get minutes from an existing Moment object, you can first format it to whatever you need, then use duration to get its duration in minutes:

moment.duration(myMomentObjectToConvert.format("HH:mm")).asMinutes()
