Display datetime with MomentJs without timezone conversion
Use the utc()
method of moment to remove the timezone and display everything in universal time.
moment.utc('2015-01-22T16:11:36.36-07:00').format('l LT')
That will display the time as it is in UTC without any timezone offset. If you want to display the time as it was recorded in the user/server timezone you can parse the zone information when you construct a moment instance and have it use the timezone recorded in the parsed string.
moment.parseZone('2015-01-22T16:11:36.36-07:00').format('l LT');
With either of these approaches you should consider labeling the time in some way to reflect the timezone the time corresponds to. Failing to do this could lead to a lot of confusion for the end users.
You can use the utcOffset method to set the offset manually.
moment().utcOffset(0, true).format()
I created an extension to display the datetime without trying to adjust to the user's timezone:
(function (moment) {
moment.fn.nozone = function () {
var m1 = moment(this);
var offsetInMinutes = m1.utcOffset();
return m1.utc().add(offsetInMinutes, 'm');
};
}(moment));
This way it is easily reusable, even in javascript templates.
