How to get "Yesterday 17th May 2015" format in moment.js

I need to format some days in the format "Yesterday 17th May 2015" using moment.js. This is what I have so far:

var asd = moment(moment.utc("2015-09-30T08:35:40.59"))
          .subtract(1, 'days')
          .calendar();
Solution

  • As described in the Calendar customization doc is it possibile to customize the format of calendar.

    In the example below, I customized the sameElse format of calendar for the English locale to return a string with the format you required:

    moment.locale('en', {
    calendar : {
        sameElse : '[Yesterday] Do MMM YYYY'
    }
});

var asd = moment.utc("2015-09-30T08:35:40.59")
          .subtract(1, 'days')
          .calendar();

console.log(asd);
