moment.parseFormat – a moment.js plugin
=======================================
[](https://github.com/gr2m/moment-parseformat/actions/workflows/test.yml)
> A moment.js plugin to extract the format of a date/time string
Installation
------------
Load via script tag
```html
```
Install using [npm](https://npmjs.org/) for node.js:
```
npm install --save moment-parseformat
```
Browser Usage
-----
```js
var format = moment.parseFormat('Thursday, February 6th, 2014 9:20pm'/* , options */);
// dddd, MMMM Do, YYYY h:mma
moment().format(format); // format
```
Node / CommonJS Usage
-----
```js
var moment = require 'moment'
var parseFormat = require('moment-parseformat')
var format = parseFormat('Thursday, February 6th, 2014 9:20pm'/* , options */);
// dddd, MMMM Do, YYYY h:mma
moment().format(format); // format
```
Options
----
Options can be passed as 2nd parameter
#### preferredOrder
Type: `Object` or `String`
`parseFormat` tries to figure out the the order of day/month/year by itself
if it finds 3 numbers separated by `.`, `-` or `/`. But if it can't, it will fallback
to `preferredOrder`, which can either be set as an object to differentiate by separator,
or as a simple string.
Default value:
```js
preferredOrder: {
'/': 'MDY',
'.': 'DMY',
'-': 'YMD'
}
```
Usage
```js
parseFormat('10.10.2010', {preferredOrder: 'DMY'});
// ☛ DD.MM.YYYY
parseFormat('10.10.2010', {preferredOrder: 'MDY'});
// ☛ MM.DD.YYYY
parseFormat('10.10.2010', {preferredOrder: {
'/': 'MDY',
'.': 'DMY',
'-': 'YMD'
}});
// ☛ MM.DD.YYYY
parseFormat('10/10/2010', {preferredOrder: {
'/': 'MDY',
'.': 'DMY',
'-': 'YMD'
}});
// ☛ DD/MM/YYYY
```
