In this article, we are going to see what is getLocaleDateTimeFormat in Angular 10 and how to use it.

The getLocaleDateTimeFormat is used to get the localized date-time formatting for the given locale.

Syntax:

getLocaleDateTimeFormat(locale: string, width: FormatWidth): string

NgModule: Module used by getLocaleDateTimeFormat is:

  • CommonModule

Approach: 

  • Create the angular app to be used
  • In app.module.ts import LOCALE_ID because we need locale to be imported for using get getLocaleDateTimeFormat.
import { LOCALE_ID, NgModule } from '@angular/core';
  • In app.component.ts import getLocaleDateTimeFormat and LOCALE_ID
  • inject LOCALE_ID as a public variable.
  • In app.component.html show the local variable using string interpolation
  • serve the angular app using ng serve to see the output.

Parameters:

  • locale: A string containing locale code with rules.
  • width: The format type.

Return value:

  • string: String of localized formatting strings.

app.module.ts




import { LOCALE_ID, NgModule } 
        from '@angular/core';
import { BrowserModule } 
        from '@angular/platform-browser';
  
import { AppRoutingModule }
