Format jQuery date in PHP

Question

I am passing jQuery date in backend. date is Thu Jun 01 2017 00:00:00 GMT 0530 (India Standard Time).

I want to convert this date in 2017-06-19 this format but in php.

$date_str='Thu Jun 01 2017 00:00:00 GMT 0530 (India Standard Time)';
echo  date_format(date_create_from_format('Y-m-d', $date_str), 'd-m-Y');

I have tried this solution but it is not working for me.

How do you want the solution? from php level or jquery level? — SilentCoder

You can use this code:

$timezoneDataStartPos = strpos($date_str," GMT");
$formattedString = substr($date_str, 0, $timezoneDataStartPos);
$formattedDate=DateTime::createFromFormat('D M d Y H:i:s', $formattedString, new DateTimeZone('Asia/Kolkata'));
echo $formattedDate->format('Y-m-d');

You need to remove " GMT 0530 (India Standard Time)" and make sure to preserve Timezone as Asia/Kolkata

Try this code:

Note : Remove 0530 (India Standard Time) from your date format and use date format shown below my code.

<?php
$date_str='Thu Jun 01 2017 00:00:00 GMT ';
echo date('Y-m-d',strtotime($date_str));
?>
