ngx-dayjs

dayjs pipes for Angular

Installation

npm install --save ngx-dayjs

For System.js users:

First you need to install dayjs:

npm install dayjs --save

Don’t forget to update your systemjs.config.js:

packages: {
            app: {
                main: './main.js',
                defaultExtension: 'js'
            },
            'dayjs': {
                main: './dayjs.js',
                defaultExtension: 'js'
            },
            'ngx-dayjs': {
                main: './index.js',
                defaultExtension: 'js'
            }
        }

Usage

Import dayjsModule into your app’s modules:

import { dayjsModule } from 'ngx-dayjs';
@NgModule({
  imports: [
    dayjsModule
  ]
})

This makes all the ngx-dayjs pipes available for use in your app components.

Available pipes

amFromUnix pipe

@Component({
  selector: 'app',
  template: `
    Last updated: {{ (1456263980 | amFromUnix) | amDateFormat:'hh:mmA'}}
  `
})

Prints Last updated: 01:46PM

amParse pipe

Parses a custom-formatted date into a dayjs object that can be used with the other pipes.

@Component({
  selector: 'app',
  template: `
    Last updated: {{'24/01/2014' | amParse:'DD/MM/YYYY' | amDateFormat:'LL'}}
  `
})

Prints Last updated: January 24, 2016

amDifference pipe

@Component({
  selector: 'app',
  template: `
    Expiration: {{nextDay | amDifference: today :'days' : true}} days
  `
})

Prints Expiration: 1 day

amAdd and amSubtract pipes

Use these pipes to perform date arithmetics. See dayjsjs docs for details.

@Component({
  selector: 'app',
  template: `
    Expiration: {{'2017-03-17T16:55:00.000+01:00' | amAdd: 2 : 'hours' | amDateFormat: 'YYYY-MM-DD HH:mm'}}
  `
})

Prints Expiration: 2017-03-17 18:55

@Component({
  selector: 'app',
  template: `
    Last updated: {{'2017-03-17T16:55:00.000+01:00' | amSubtract: 5 : 'years' | amDateFormat: 'YYYY-MM-DD HH:mm'}}
  `
})

Prints Last updated: 2012-03-17 16:55
