angularjs date filter not formatting my json value -

i have service returns json so:

"results":[{"id":"1","somedate":"2/19/2013 10:34:04 pm"}

when seek format using binding, doesnt work - displays string above:

{{values.somedate| date:'mediumtime' }}

however, works if pass in format:

{{ '1997-03-01t00:00:00+01:00' | date:'mediumtime'}}

what best way prepare this?

as mentioned in comments charlietfl, clean alternative update service homecoming date format compatible built-in angular filters.

however, if not possible, set custom filter parse dates.

a (very small) library recommend moment.js: http://momentjs.com/

the next illustration blog post on how wrap moment.js in custom angular filter: http://www.34m0.com/2012/07/angularjs-user-friendly-date-display.html

angular.module('mymodule'). filter('fromnow', function() { homecoming function(datestring) { homecoming moment(new date(datestring)).fromnow() }; });

this used like:

{{ reply.createddate | fromnow }}

angularjs
