Momentjs format date in Collection2

help
1

Hello.

Can someone tell me how to format a date from Fri Feb 12 2016 00:27:04 GMT+0100 (Rom) to 12. February 00:27 or something simular with Momentjs?

In my Collection2 schema i have the following code:

PostSchema = new SimpleSchema ({    
createdAt: {
           type: Date,
           label: "Created At",
           autoValue: function() {
               return new Date()
           },
           autoform: {
               type: "hidden"
           }
       }
});

var timestamp = moment("Fri Feb 12 2016 00:27:04 GMT+0100 (Rom)", "ddd MMM DD YYYY HH:mm:ss");
 => Fri Feb 12 2016 00:27:04 GMT+0100

Rhywden you are The man!

This example is for a specific scenario, right? How about when it’s just all dates on the site. Should I create a helper to manage that?
