DD/MM/YYYY Date format in Moment.js

Question

How can i change the current date to this format(DD/MM/YYYY) using moment.js?

I have tried below code.

Answer 1

You need to call format() function to get the formatted value

$scope.SearchDate = moment(new Date()).format("DD/MM/YYYY")
//or $scope.SearchDate = moment().format("DD/MM/YYYY")

The syntax you have used is used to parse a given string to date object by using the specified formate
