Angularjs - display current date

You have to create a date object in your controller first:

controller:

function Ctrl($scope)
{
    $scope.date = new Date();
}

view:

<div ng-app ng-controller="Ctrl">
    {{date | date:'yyyy-MM-dd'}}
</div>

Angular Date Filter Ref

You can also do this with a filter if you don't want to have to attach a date object to the current scope every time you want to print the date:

.filter('currentdate',['$filter',  function($filter) {
    return function() {
        return $filter('date')(new Date(), 'yyyy-MM-dd');
    };
}])

and then in your view:

<div ng-app="myApp">
    <div>{{'' | currentdate}}</div>
</div>
