format a date in to the format month day, year hour:minute:second am/pm in javascript

One way to format a date in the desired format is by using the Moment.js library. Here's an example:

index.tsx
// Create a new Date object
const date = new Date();

// Use Moment.js to format the date
const formattedDate = moment(date).format('MMMM Do, YYYY h:mm:ss A');

// Log the formatted date to the console
console.log(formattedDate);
230 chars
9 lines

In the above code, the format method of Moment.js is used to format the date. The format string MMMM Do, YYYY h:mm:ss A specifies the desired format, where:

  • MMMM represents the full name of the month
  • Do represents the day of the month with the suffix (e.g. 1st, 2nd, 3rd)
  • YYYY represents the full 4-digit year
  • h represents the hour in 12-hour format
  • mm represents the minutes
  • ss represents the seconds
  • A represents the AM/PM marker

Running the above code would output a string like June 14th, 2021 10:30:15 AM, depending on the current date and time.
