Create date information in the file structure in the JSON file - json

is it possible to specify a date in the JSON structure, like for example in PHP (https://www.php.net/manual/de/function.date.php):
$my_date = date("m.d.Y");
What I mean, here is an example of the JSON file:
{
"dates_set_1":"test-1",
"my_date":date("m.d.Y")
}
Is it possible to specify a date like this?
And if so, how?


Yes you can do it. Like this
date("F j, Y, g:i a"); // March 10, 2001, 5:16 pm

The simplest way to convert a long date format to YY/MM/DD HTML

I'm new in web development.
my problem is:
how to disaply in html a date in simple format dd/mm/yy
instead of Fri Sep 01 2000 00:00:00 GMT+0300 (Israel Daylight Time)
I'm trying to create a crud api using mongoose.
I have a schema model,
one of the fileds is a filed of type date:
joinDate: {type: Date, required: true}
in the controller:
post- program.joinDate= req.body.joinDate;
get-
Program.find((err, docs) => {
res.render("program/list", {
list: docs
});
});
in the view: <td>{{this.joinDate}}</td>
My question: The easy and fast way to convert the long format to short and cleraly format.
I saw some solutions but I think they are too complex and outdated.
If you have any idea for me I would be happy:)
thank's you!

I often use mongoose virtual + moments for this.
eventSchema.virtual('joinDate_formatted').get(function () {
return moment(joinDate).calendar({
sameDay: 'h:mm A',
nextDay: '[Tomorrow] h:mm A',
nextWeek: 'dddd',
lastDay: '[Yesterday] h:mm A',
lastWeek: '[Last] dddd',
sameElse: 'DD/MM/YYYY h:mm A'
}); //Above shows in calendar format but u can do whatever u want in moment
});
When u do any find on the collection, you will get a joinDate_formatted which u can use on your front end.

Load only a few values from complex JSON object in Pig Latin

I have a complex JSON file that looks like this: http://pastebin.com/4UfadbqS
I would like to load only several values from these JSON objects using Pig Latin. I tried doing that like this:
mydata = LOAD 'data.json'
USING JsonLoader('id:chararray, created_at:chararray,
user: {(language:chararray)}’);
STORE mydata
INTO 'output';
But it seems that Pig Latin is just taking the first 3 values from the JSON and saving them (it does not recognize the column name as a key). Is there a way to achieve this? OR should I just list ALL the values from JSON in a Pig and filter them after that?

There are few problems in the above approach
1. JsonLoader will always expect the full schema of your input but you gave only three fields.
2. JsonLoader will always expect the entire input as a single line but your input is multiline.
3. JsonLoader will not support nested schema but your input contains nested schema.
To solve all the above problems you have use the thirdparty library elephant-bird jar.
Download the (elephant-bird-pig-4.1.jar and elephant-bird-hadoop-compat-4.1.jar) jar file from this link
http://www.java2s.com/Code/Jar/e/elephant.htm and try the below approach
I copied your entire input and formatted as a single line as below.
input.json

In elephantbird library all the values will be stored as key/value pair(ie MAP datatype), so it will be easy to extract the required fields from the loaded data.
In the above pigscript i have extracted the value of 'id','created_at' and 'user' as per your need.
Suppose you want to extract some fields from 'user' data( ex: 'friends_count' and 'followers_count'), in that case you need to project the 'user' field and extract the required data. sample code below.
PigScript:
REGISTER '/tmp/elephant-bird-hadoop-compat-4.1.jar';
REGISTER '/tmp/elephant-bird-pig-4.1.jar';
A = LOAD 'input.json ' USING com.twitter.elephantbird.pig.load.JsonLoader('-nestedLoad') AS myMap;
B = FOREACH A GENERATE 'user' AS User;
C = FOREACH B GENERATE User#'friends_count', User#'followers_count';
DUMP C;
Output:

HandlebarsJS date format

I have a JSON file which returns multiple items with different values for concert dates.
So this value returns:
date: "2014-11-27"
and in my HandlebarsJS-template I have:
<p>{{date}}</p>
but I want to display the date like this:
NOV 27
by using HandlebarsJS and yes, I have MomentJS included too.
How can I achieve this?

You could register a Handlebars helper like this:
Handlebars.registerHelper('formatDate', function(dateString) {
return new Handlebars.SafeString(
moment(dateString).format("MMM D").toUpperCase()
);
});
After registering you have to change your template:
<p>{{formatDate date}}</p>

convert Date Format yyyy-mm-dd to dd-mm-yyyy in flex

I have a requirement. I have a date format as yyyy/mm/dd and I want to convert this format to mm/dd/yyyy in action script.
I had tried to parse to this format, it is not working. Can any one of you please help me?

var s:String = "2012/03/05";
var dateParts:Array = s.split('/'); //['2012', '03', '05']
//take off the first element and add it back at the end
dateParts.push(dateParts.shift()); //['03', '05', '2012']
s = dateParts.join('/'); //'03/05/2012'
trace(s);

If we're opting for string manipulation, why not this:
'2010/05/14'.replace(/(\d{4})\/(\d{2})\/(\d{2})/, '$2/$3/$1')

jqGrid Doesn't Sort When Showing Epoch Time (since as milliseconds) as Date

I use jqGrid and my grid definition is like that:
...
colNames:['Type','Date','Message','User Name','Host'],
colModel:[{name:'type',index:'type', width:100},
{name:'date',index:'date', sorttype:'date', formatter:'date',
formatoptions: {newformat:'d-M-Y'}, width:100},
{name:'log',index:'log', width:200},
{name:'username',index:'username', width:50},
{name:'host',index:'host', width:50}],
...
When I debug my coming data one of the date value (it is Number) is as follows:
1322550786997
Grid shows it like that:
29-Nov-2011
Everything is OK till this point. However when I want to sort my date column it doesn't change anything.
Any ideas?

The problem is that decoding of the Unix (formatoptions: {srcformat: 'U', newformat: 'd-M-Y'}) date 1322550786997 get us 19-Dec-43879 and not 29-Nov-2011. You correct representation of the date will be the string "\/Date(1322550786997)\/" instead of the number 1322550786997.
See the demo:
UPDATED: You can also use the following custom formatter as a workaround
formatter: function (cellval, opts) {
var date = new Date(cellval);
opts = $.extend({}, $.jgrid.formatter.date, opts);
return $.fmatter.util.DateFormat("", date, 'd-M-Y', opts);
}
It creates Date and then use original date formatter to convert it to the format 'd-M-Y'. See here the demo.
