Convert time to 24 hours format in Javascript

Question

How can I isolate and convert the local time format in JavaScript's new Date() to a 24 hour format?

Example: 2016-09-22T23:21:56.027Z just becomes 22:56 in local time.

Solution 1

new Date("2000-01-01 10:30 AM").getHours() // 10

This is 24 hours:

new Date("2000-01-01 10:30 PM").getHours() // 22

If you want a more general thing:

function get_hours(time_string) {
    return new Date("2000-01-01 " + time_string).getHours() // 22
}

Solution 2

In moment.js you can do:

theDate.format("H:MM")

Sorry, but this does not right pad the hours if the hour is a single digit. That is, new Date('2019-01-01 00:00').getHours() === 0
