javascript - Moment.js get day name from date

Question

I'm using jquery and moment.js for a custom calendar.

I have a date object in a variable myDate like :

 Object { date="2014-12-23 14:00:00", timezone_type=3, timezone="Europe/Paris"}

I want, using moment.js (or not) get the day name of this date, in my example i need to get : tuesday

Ideas ? Thanks

With moment you can parse the date string you have:

var dt = moment(myDate.date, "YYYY-MM-DD HH:mm:ss")

That's for UTC, you'll have to convert the time zone from that point if you so desire.

Then you can get the day of the week:

dt.format('dddd');
