Calendar::formatDate
A method that formats a date into a string. It inherits the locale and time zone settings of the calendar it’s called on.
calendar.formatDate( date, settings )
date can be a Date Object or something that will parse into a Date Object.
settings is an object that holds any of the date format config options.
Example:
import { Calendar } from '@fullcalendar/core';
import dayGridPlugin from '@fullcalendar/daygrid';
document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', function() {
var calendarEl = document.getElementById('calendar');
var calendar = new Calendar(calendarEl, {
plugins: [ dayGridPlugin ],
timeZone: 'UTC',
locale: 'es'
});
var str = calendar.formatDate('2018-09-01', {
month: 'long',
year: 'numeric',
day: 'numeric'
});
console.log(str); // "1 de septiembre de 2018 0:00 UTC"
});
