DateTime JS to GoLang

Transforming standard JS DateTime format to GoLang format

This script translates the date from the standard dd/mm/yyyy to a format that go lang can understand

Code:

			const formats = [
				{
					'desc': 'two digit year',
					'stdformat': 'yy',
					'goformat': '06',
					'reg': '(?<!y)yy(?!y)',
				},
				{
					'desc': 'four digit year',
					'stdformat': 'yyyy',
					'goformat': '2006',
					'reg': 'yyyy'
				},
				{
					'desc': 'single digit month',
					'stdformat': 'M',
					'goformat': '1',
					'reg': '(?<!M)M(?!M)' 
				},
				{
					'desc': 'two digit month',
					'stdformat': 'MM' ,
					'goformat': '01',
					'reg': 'MM'
				},
				{
					'desc': 'single digit day',
					'stdformat': 'd',
					'goformat': '2',
					'reg': '(?<!d)d(?!d)'
				},
				{
					'desc': 'two digit day',
					'stdformat': 'dd',
					'goformat': '02',
					'reg': 'dd'
				},
				{
					'desc': 'single digit 12 hour',
					'stdformat': 'h',
					'goformat': '2',
					'reg': '(?<!h)h(?!h)'
				},
				{
					'desc': 'two digit 12 hour',
					'stdformat': 'hh',
					'goformat': '02',
					'reg': 'hh'
				},
				{
					'desc': 'two digit 24 hour',
					'stdformat': 'HH',
					'goformat': '15',
					'reg': 'HH'
				},
				{
					'desc': 'single digit minute',
					'stdformat': 'm',
					'goformat': '4',
					'reg': '(?<!m)m(?!m)'
				},
				{
					'desc': 'two digit minute',
					'stdformat': 'mm',
					'goformat': '04',
					'reg': 'mm'
				},
				{
					'desc': 'single digit second',
					'stdformat': 's',
					'goformat': '5',
					'reg': '(?<!s)s(?!s)'
				},
				{
					'desc': 'two digit second',
					'stdformat': 'ss',
					'goformat': '05',
					'reg': 'ss'
				}
			];

			// Formats date from a dmy to a format that golang understands
			function formatDate(date) {
				
				// Query over the date string and check if it has any of the formats that we have
				console.log('date',date);
				formats.forEach(function(format){
					console.log('Iterating on format',format);

					let re = new RegExp(format.reg);
					let match = date.match(re);

					console.log('match result',match);

					if(match) {
						// Replace with golang format
						date = date.replace(format.stdformat,format.goformat);
						console.log('new date',date);
					}

				});
				
				return date;
			}
