pre-processing cell value before sending back from editor php to javascript

javismiles

If one of the fields that editor returns, requires some pre-processing before being sent back? say that the column value is a date, and that date needs to be processed in some way and the value finally returned for that column wont be the date itself but something obtained after processing that date in some way, how do i do that before the value is sent back?
thank u

what i see that i need are these formatters
https://editor.datatables.net/manual/php/formatters
so that instead of sending back the date in datetime format, I pre-process it first, is there an example for that?
