DESCRIPTION

The Date Formatter Hash Variable Plugin converts your displayed date values from one date format to another, example from "2017-02-23" to "Feb 23, 2017".

    Syntax: #dateFormatter.{date source value}.source date format&new date format#

 

Let's say you have saved your dates into the database as "yyyy-MM-dd", using this form hash variable #form.dbtable.dateField# in your form or (email) tool, it will display as "2017-02-23".

Using the Date Formatter hash variable, you can change the date format to display as "Feb 23, 2017" using the following hash syntax:

    #dateFormatter.{{form.dbtable.dateField}}.yyyy-MM-dd&MMM d, yyyy#

For static date values, use the following hash syntax:

    #dateFormatter.{2017-02-23}.yyyy-MM-dd&MMM d, yyyy#

 

The Date and Time pattern strings are based on the Java SimpleDateFormat.

The Joget Knowledge Base has an extensive documentation on Hash Variable.
