Remove leading zero from d3.js timeFormat

Question

I'm working with d3.js and I'm using this documentation.

I use this to show the hour: %I:%M which shows the hour like 02:34.

Is there a way to remove the leading zero, in this case showing the data as 2:34 ?

Answer 1

As outlined in the documentation, the default padding is zero-padding for all directives except %e (for which it is space-padding).
To change the padding type, you can append a modifier to %:

• 0 - zero-padding
• _ - space-padding
• - - disable padding

So, given your example: %-I:%M.
