# Get The Time Components Of A Date
|
||||
|
||||
A `Date` object in JavaScript has several functions available to it for getting
|
||||
at the time components of that date.
|
||||
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
> const now = new Date()
|
||||
undefined
|
||||
> now
|
||||
2023-06-14T17:44:06.425Z
|
||||
> now.getMinutes()
|
||||
44
|
||||
> now.getSeconds()
|
||||
6
|
||||
> now.getHours()
|
||||
12
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
For a given `Date` object, you can access the hours with
|
||||
[`getHours()`](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/Date/getHours),
|
||||
the minutes with
|
||||
[`getMinutes()`](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/Date/getMinutes),
|
||||
and the seconds with
|
||||
[`getSeconds()`](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/Date/getSeconds).
|
||||
|
||||
To round things out, there is also
|
||||
[`getMilliseconds()`](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/Date/getMilliseconds)
|
||||
and
|
||||
[`getTimezoneOffset()`](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/Date/getTimezoneOffset).
