Hi,

You can't do this in sightly, you need to do in java/sling model

Hi @hptarora ,

In Sling Model, something like below-

@Model(adaptables = Resource.class)
public class MyModel {

@Inject
private String myDate;

/**
* @return the myDate
*/
public String getMyDate() {

String lastModified = //Get the String
return new SimpleDateFormat("dd-M-yyyy hh:mm:ss").format(lastModified);
}

}

<sly data-sly-use.htl="com.aem.models.HTLSightlySlingModal"></sly>
<div>${'yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm' @format=htl.publishDate , timezone='UTC'}</div>
<div>${'EEEE, d MMM y' @format=htl.publishDate , timezone='UTC', locale='en'}</div>

where  publishDate — returns Calender object
