AngularJS - How to filter date in controller

Question

I have a JSON file returning a number of dates in such format:

/Date(1235548800000)/

How can i filter this in my Controller to only return the year?

I have tried:

 var filteredDate = $filter('date')($scope.ToDate, 'yyyy');

 console.log(filteredDate);

But console is displaying:

/Date(1235548800000)/

Answer 1

You could try this

var parsedDate = new Date(parseInt($scope.ToDate.substr(6)));
var filteredDate = $filter('date')(parsedDate, 'yyyy');

Answer 2

Check my Plunker. You should get the timestamp from ToDate string. You can use something like this if all the time date has the same format.

var dt=$scope.toDate.substring($scope.toDate.indexOf("(")+1,$scope.toDate.indexOf(")"));

Answer 3

Try this:

var filteredDate = YourDate.getFullYear();
console.log(filteredDate);

Hope it helps...........!
