Formatting date in rowexpander xtemplate

[emilyberk]

I Know there are several forum threads about this but none of the solutions work for me.

In my xtemplate for my row expander I have a date field that I want to format

plugins: [{
        ptype: 'rowexpander',
        rowBodyTpl: this.something.getRowBodyXTemplate()
      }],

the function getRowBodyXTemplate returns the xtemplate string which is like this

'<td > <p> discovered {discovered_at}</p> </td>'

it's the discovered_at Date that i need to format.

it's specified in the model as

      
{ name: 'discovered_at', type: 'date'},

and i tried this but my date came up undefined

      
{ name: 'discovered_at', type: 'date', dateFormat: 'n-j-Y g:i A'},

help?

Try reverting your model to

{ name: 'discovered_at', type: 'auto' },

, and changing your template string to:

'<td><p> discovered {discovered_at:date("n-j-Y g:i A")}</p></td>'

http://docs.sencha.com/ext-js/4-0/#/api/Ext.util.Format gives other examples of what you can do with format functions in templates.

hope this helps,
