Angular Date pipe month value wrong

Question

I have the following code in my template:

<div>{{createdOn | date:'yyyy-mm-dd'}}</div>

The value of createdOn is 1565762489936 in milliseconds. In terms of date it is 'Wed 14 August 2019'.

Instead I get '2019-31-14'. The month value is wrong.

Whats the issue here?

When using Angular’s Date Pipe you need to keep its custom format options in mind:

Lowercase mm will print the minute with two digits.

What you should use instead is uppercase MM which represents the month:

<div>{{createdOn | date:'yyyy-MM-dd'}}</div>
