Versatile JavaScript Date/Time Formatting Library – Tictic

tictic is a tiny JavaScript utility for formatting dates and times in web applications.

You can easily customize date/time outputs, localize month names, increment/decrement days, format weekdays, specify time formats, and more.

How to use it:

1. Install and import the required modules as follows:

# NPM
$ npm i tictic

import { getFormattedDate, getFormattedTime } from 'tictic'

2. Format a specific date:

const formattedDate = getFormattedDate({
  // Accept the same input as the native new Date()
  date: new Date(),
  // Custom separator
  sep: '-',
  // Custom date format
  format: 'DD-MM-YYYY',
  // Exception Object
  exclude: { year: false, month: false, day: false, zero: false },
  // Localize month names here
  nameOfMonths: ['Jan', 'Feb', 'Mar', 'Apr', 'May', 'Jun', 'Jul', 'Aug', 'Sep', 'Oct', 'Nov', 'Dec'],

  weekDays: {
    // Responsible for displaying the day of the week
    set: true,
    // Accept the same input as the native method Date.toLocaleString
    locale: 'en',
    // 'long' | 'short' | 'narrow'
    format: 'short',
    // 'capitalize' | 'uppercase' | 'lowercase'
    case: 'uppercase',
    // 'start' | 'end'
    position: 'end'
  },
  // Increases by n days
  incDay: 0
});
console.log(formattedDate);
// Oct-26-2023 THU

3. Format a specific time.

const formattedTime = getFormattedTime({
  time: new Date().getTime(),
  sep: ':',
  format: 'hh:mm:ss',
  meridiem: {
    format: '12h',
    case: 'uppercase',
    position: 'end',
  }
});
console.log(formattedTime);
// 13:13:58
