JavaScript date helper

Still in development. Currently supports only getting formated date.

Instalation

package.json

"date-helper-util": "x.y.z"

Usage

var dateHelper = require("date-helper-util");

With date object

var date = new Date(2015, 1, 3);
date = dateHelper(date);
date.getFormated("DD/MM/YYYY"); // outputs 03/02/2015

With date string and date format string

date = dateHelper("03/02/2015", "DD/MM/YYYY");
date.getFormated("YYYY/MM/DD"); // outputs 2015/02/03

Formats

• DD - date, if less then 10 prepends with 0
• D - date, if less then 10 NOT prepended with 0
• MMM - month as a month name (January, February, ...)
• MM - month, if less then 10 prepends with 0
• M - month, if less then 10 NOT prepended with 0
• YYYY - full year

Setting date values

var date = dateHelper(new Date());

Setting year

date.setYear(2016);

Setting month

date.setMonth(1); // accepts 1-12

Setting date

date.setDate(1);

Getting date values

Getting year

date.getYear();

Getting month

Returns values 1-12 and not like native JavaScript 0-11

date.getMonth();

Getting date

date.getDate();

Adding values to date

Values can be added by calling .add function with type and amount parameters. Type is string day, month or year.

date = dateHelper(new Date());
date.add("day", 1);
date.add("month", 1);
date.add("year", 1);

Subtracting values to date

Values can be subtracted by calling .sub function with type and amount parameters. Type is string day, month or year.

date = dateHelper(new Date());
date.sub("day", 1);
date.sub("month", 1);
date.sub("year", 1);

Is date before other date

isBefore function can be used to check if date is before other.

var date = new Date(2016, 4, 3);
dateHelper(date).isBefore(new Date(2016, 4, 4)); // true

Is date after other date

isAfter function can be used to check if date is after other.

var date = new Date(2016, 4, 3);
dateHelper(date).isAfter(new Date(2016, 4, 2)); // true

Is date same as other date

isSameAs function can be used to check if date at same time as other.

var date = new Date(2016, 4, 3);
dateHelper(date).isSameAs(new Date(2016, 4, 3)); // true

    "Svibanj", "Lipanj", "Srpanj", "Kolovoz", "Rujan", "Listopad", "Studeni", "Prosinac"])
var date = new Date(2016, 4, 3);
dateHelper(date).getFormated("DD/MMM/YYYY"); // "03/Svibanj/2016"
