Namespace jsDate.formats
Namespace to hold format codes and format shortcuts. "perl" and "php" format codes and shortcuts are defined by default. Additional codes and shortcuts can be added like:
jsDate.formats["perl"] = {
"codes": {
matcher: /someregex/,
Y: "fullYear", // name of "get" method without the "get",
..., // more codes
},
"shortcuts": {
F: '%Y-%m-%d',
..., // more shortcuts
}
};
Additionally, ISO and SQL shortcuts are defined and can be accesses via:
jsDate.formats.ISO and jsDate.formats.SQL
Defined in: jsdate.js.
Field Summary
Field Detail
jsDate.formats.perl
Perl format codes and shortcuts for strftime.
A hash (object) of codes where each code must be an array where the first member is
the name of a Date.prototype or jsDate.prototype function to call
and optionally a second member indicating the number to pass to addZeros()
The following format codes are defined:
Code Result Description == Years == %Y 2008 Four-digit year %y 08 Two-digit year == Months == %m 09 Two-digit month %#m 9 One or two-digit month %B September Full month name %b Sep Abbreviated month name == Days == %d 05 Two-digit day of month %#d 5 One or two-digit day of month %e 5 One or two-digit day of month %A Sunday Full name of the day of the week %a Sun Abbreviated name of the day of the week %w 0 Number of the day of the week (0 = Sunday, 6 = Saturday) == Hours == %H 23 Hours in 24-hour format (two digits) %#H 3 Hours in 24-hour integer format (one or two digits) %I 11 Hours in 12-hour format (two digits) %#I 3 Hours in 12-hour integer format (one or two digits) %p PM AM or PM == Minutes == %M 09 Minutes (two digits) %#M 9 Minutes (one or two digits) == Seconds == %S 02 Seconds (two digits) %#S 2 Seconds (one or two digits) %s 1206567625723 Unix timestamp (Seconds past 1970-01-01 00:00:00) == Milliseconds == %N 008 Milliseconds (three digits) %#N 8 Milliseconds (one to three digits) == Timezone == %O 360 difference in minutes between local time and GMT %Z Mountain Standard Time Name of timezone as reported by browser %G 06:00 Hours and minutes between GMT == Shortcuts == %F 2008-03-26 %Y-%m-%d %T 05:06:30 %H:%M:%S %X 05:06:30 %H:%M:%S %x 03/26/08 %m/%d/%y %D 03/26/08 %m/%d/%y %#c Wed Mar 26 15:31:00 2008 %a %b %e %H:%M:%S %Y %v 3-Sep-2008 %e-%b-%Y %R 15:31 %H:%M %r 03:31:00 PM %I:%M:%S %p == Characters == %n \n Newline %t \t Tab %% % Percent Symbol
Formatting shortcuts that will be translated into their longer version. Be sure that format shortcuts do not refer to themselves: this will cause an infinite loop.
Format codes and format shortcuts can be redefined after the jsDate module is imported.
Note that if you redefine the whole hash (object), you must supply a "matcher" regex for the parser. The default matcher is:
/()%(#?(%|[a-z]))/i
which corresponds to the Perl syntax used by default.
By customizing the matcher and format codes, nearly any strftime functionality is possible.
jsDate.formats.php
PHP format codes and shortcuts for strftime.
A hash (object) of codes where each code must be an array where the first member is
the name of a Date.prototype or jsDate.prototype function to call
and optionally a second member indicating the number to pass to addZeros()
The following format codes are defined:
