i have tried

.toString('dd-MM-yyy');

but to no avail how can i parse the given format into the required one.

Answer 1

function zeroPad(d) {
  return d < 10 ? '0' + d : d;
}

var date = new Date('Wed May 16 2012 10:22:39 GMT+0500'),
    d = zeroPad(date.getDate()),
    m = zeroPad(date.getMonth()+1);

var output = d + '-' + m + '-' + date.getFullYear();
