I have the following string:

2016-06-08 - 10:08

I need to convert this string to the other format:

08-06-2016 10:08

How should I proceed?

   function dateFormat(date) {
      inputFormat = new java.text.SimpleDateFormat('dd-MM-yyyy');
      inputText = "2012-11-17";
      date = inputFormat.parse(inputText);
      outputText = inputFormat.format(date);
      alert(outputText);
        };

  • All you have is string, just manipulate and create the format you want. What code you have so far?

  • Can you help me?

  • What code do you have so far?

  • I updated @Paulohdsousa

  • Where did you get java.text.Simpledateformat?

  • is a java class. I use Rhino javascript, a java implementation.

  • Da uma olhada nisso inputText = new Date('2012-11-17');
alert(inputText.getDate() +'-'+ inputText.getMonth()+'-'+ inputText.getFullYear());

If your string follows the same pattern, you can change the position of the letters

var datas = "2016-06-08 - 10:08 ";
var novaData = (datas[8]+datas[9]+datas[4]+datas[5]+datas[6]
+datas[7]+datas[0]+datas[1]+datas[2]+datas[3]+datas[10]+datas[11]
+datas[12]+datas[13]+datas[14]+datas[15]+datas[16]+datas[17]);
alert(novaData);

Why don’t you use the split method to separate the date by the separator - and store it in an array and then just use the Reverse() method to invert the e array.e...

  • Thanks for the comments I’m starting now so I really need the criticism and recommendations, in the next reply I’ll be more specific thank you.
