Actually, you don't need any library for this simple task. If you are doing in your angular project with angular 6+ then import formatDate from the common package and pass other data. Here is a sample:

import { Component } from '@angular/core';
import {formatDate } from '@angular/common';
@Component({
  selector: 'my-app',
  templateUrl: './app.component.html',
  styleUrls: [ './app.component.css' ]
})
export class AppComponent  {
  today= new Date();
  todaysDataTime = '';

  constructor() {
    this.todaysDataTime = formatDate(this.today, 'dd-MM-yyyy hh:mm:ss a', 'en-US', '+0530');
  }
}
