How to separate month and year in Date in pug-CodePudding

This is the format of date saved in MongoDB:

Sun Feb 13 2022 05:30:00 GMT 0530 (India Standard Time)

How to separate month, year and day from this date in pug? I want to take this date in pug and display month and year separately.

CodePudding user response：

Pug is built on JavaScript, so you could just use string manipulation to parse the month, day, and year—assuming the format is consistent.

-
  // variable containing date string
  const myString = "Sun Feb 13 2022 05:30:00 GMT 0530 (India Standard Time)"
  // break into individual variables using destructuring
  let [dayOfWeek, month, day, year, time, timeZone, timeZoneName] = myString.split(' ')

p.postDate Posted on #{month} #{day}, #{year}

Thanks everyone for your help, i found a npm library called moment.js. It is super easy to use and also has many built in functions.
