Javascript getDate

Documentation

Play on Runkit

Why?

Moment.js has been retired. It had math operations on dates. I think Math is helpful on Dates.

With moment

import moment from 'moment'
const now = Date.now()
const today = moment.utc(now)
const momentYesterday = today.subtract(1, 'days')

With @taystack/getDate:

import { getDate, subtractDays } from '@taystack/get-date' // es6
// const { getDate, subtractDays } = require('@taystack/get-date') // es5
const now = Date.now()
const today = getDate(now)
const getDateYesterday = subtractDays(now, 1)

What else?

There are no dependencies. This is a small set of helpers for working with native Javascript Date objects.

Installation

npm i @taystack/get-date
