I am trying to format the date in the popup on the map in ArcGIS for Javascript using the online documentation

Consider the following code:

        const fieldInfo = new FieldInfo({
            fieldName: "startDate",
            format: new FieldInfoFormat({ dateFormat: "long-month-day-year" })
        });

        const popup = new PopupTemplate{
            title: "Project: <a href=\"http://pr/profile.aspx?pid={projectNumber}\" target=\"_blank\" >{projectName}</a>",
            content: "<p><b>Start Date:</b> {startDate}  <b>End Date</b>: {endDate}<p>"
            fieldInfos: [ fieldInfo ]
        });

I can't seem to get the fieldInfos format to format the date. The date keeps coming out in the default format:

Any ideas to what is causing the issue?

I would recommend simply switching the content property to a function like this:

const popup = new PopupTemplate( {
  title: "Project: <a href=\"http://pr/profile.aspx?pid={projectNumber}\" target=\"_blank\" >{projectName}</a>",
  content: ({graphic}) => {
    const { startDate, endDate } = graphic.attributes;
    const start = `${startDate.getFullYear()}-${startDate.getMonth()}-${startDate.getDate()}`;
    const end = `${endDate.getFullYear()}-${endDate.getMonth()}-${endDate.getDate()}`;

    return `<p><b>Start Date:</b> ${start} <b>End Date</b>: ${end}<p>`;
  }
});

I find it much easier to just create my own custom function for adjusting the field values instead of using the fieldInfos objects.
