# dateformat
A node.js package for Steven Levithan's excellent [dateFormat()][dateformat] function.
This module was forked from https://github.com/felixge/node-dateformat to avoid a CJS to ESM migration.
This fork will be maintained as long as it is necessary.## Modifications
- Removed the `Date.prototype.format` method. Sorry folks, but extending native prototypes is for suckers.
- Added a `module.exports = dateFormat;` statement at the bottom
- Added the placeholder `N` to get the ISO 8601 numeric representation of the day of the week## Installation
```bash
$ npm install @matteo.collina/dateformat
$ dateformat --help
```## Usage
As taken from Steven's post, modified to match the Modifications listed above:
```js
var dateFormat = require("@matteo.collina/dateformat");
var now = new Date();// Basic usage
dateFormat(now, "dddd, mmmm dS, yyyy, h:MM:ss TT");
// Saturday, June 9th, 2007, 5:46:21 PM// You can use one of several named masks
dateFormat(now, "isoDateTime");
// 2007-06-09T17:46:21// ...Or add your own
dateFormat.masks.hammerTime = 'HH:MM! "Can\'t touch this!"';
dateFormat(now, "hammerTime");
// 17:46! Can't touch this!// You can also provide the date as a string
dateFormat("Jun 9 2007", "fullDate");
// Saturday, June 9, 2007// Note that if you don't include the mask argument,
// dateFormat.masks.default is used
dateFormat(now);
// Sat Jun 09 2007 17:46:21// And if you don't include the date argument,
// the current date and time is used
dateFormat();
// Sat Jun 09 2007 17:46:22// You can also skip the date argument (as long as your mask doesn't
// contain any numbers), in which case the current date/time is used
dateFormat("longTime");
// 5:46:22 PM EST// And finally, you can convert local time to UTC time. Simply pass in
// true as an additional argument (no argument skipping allowed in this case):
dateFormat(now, "longTime", true);
// 10:46:21 PM UTC// ...Or add the prefix "UTC:" or "GMT:" to your mask.
dateFormat(now, "UTC:h:MM:ss TT Z");
// 10:46:21 PM UTC// You can also get the ISO 8601 week of the year:
dateFormat(now, "W");
// 42// and also get the ISO 8601 numeric representation of the day of the week:
dateFormat(now, "N");
// 6

Day names, month names and the AM/PM indicators can be localized by
passing an object with the necessary strings. For example:```js
var dateFormat = require("dateformat");
dateFormat.i18n = {
dayNames: [
"Sun",
"Mon",
"Tue",
"Wed",
"Thu",
"Fri",
"Sat",
"Sunday",
"Monday",
"Tuesday",
"Wednesday",
"Thursday",
"Friday",
"Saturday",
],
monthNames: [
"Jan",
"Feb",
"Mar",
"Apr",
"May",
"Jun",
"Jul",
"Aug",
"Sep",
"Oct",
"Nov",
"Dec",
"January",
"February",
"March",
"April",
"May",
"June",
"July",
"August",
"September",
"October",
"November",
"December",
],
timeNames: ["a", "p", "am", "pm", "A", "P", "AM", "PM"],
};
```> Notice that only one language is supported at a time and all strings
> _must_ be present in the new value.### Breaking change in 2.1.0
- 2.1.0 was published with a breaking change, for those using localized strings.
- 2.2.0 has been published without the change, to keep packages refering to ^2.0.0 to continue working. This is now branch v2_2.
- 3.0.\* contains the localized AM/PM change.## License
