date - Liquid Filter Reference - 0.11.6

Description

Converts a timestamp into another date format. The format for this syntax is the same as strftime. The input uses the same format as Ruby’s Time.parse.

Examples

{{ publish_on | date: "%a, %b %d, %y" }}

Thu, Jul 01, 21

{{ "2021-07-01T09:00:00Z" | date: "%Y" }}

2021

date works on strings if they contain well-formatted dates:

{{ "March 14, 2016" | date: "%b %d, %y" }}

Mar 14, 16

To get the current time in UTC, pass the special word “now” (or “today”) to date:

{{ "now" | date: "%Y-%m-%d %H:%M" }}

2021-06-30 23:00
