Typescript Date Type

datetypescript

How do I express dates in TypeScript? Dates aren't a TypeScript type, so do I use any or object? Seems like there would be a "right" way to do:

let myDate: any = new Date();

I couldn't find much on Google, despite it being such a simple question.

The answer is super simple, the type is Date:

const d: Date = new Date(); // but the type can also be inferred from "new Date()" already

It is the same as with every other object instance :)

I love 10 ways to format time and date using JavaScript and Working with Dates.

Basically, you have three methods and you have to combine the strings for yourself:

getDate() // Returns the date
getMonth() // Returns the month
getFullYear() // Returns the year

Example:

var d = new Date();
var curr_date = d.getDate();
var curr_month = d.getMonth() + 1; //Months are zero based
var curr_year = d.getFullYear();
console.log(curr_date + "-" + curr_month + "-" + curr_year);
