Ranges

import { arrayOf, days, today, toDate } from '@mls44/msdate'

arrayOf(days, 7).from(today)
 [
  1592575200000,
  1592661600000,
  1592748000000,
  1592834400000,
  1592920800000,
  1593007200000,
  1593093600000
]

arrayOf(days, 7, toDate).from(today)
 [
  2020-06-19T14:00:00.000Z,
  2020-06-20T14:00:00.000Z,
  2020-06-21T14:00:00.000Z,
  2020-06-22T14:00:00.000Z,

  2020-06-24T14:00:00.000Z,
  2020-06-25T14:00:00.000Z
]

arrayOf(days, 7, { weekday: 'long' }).from(today)
 [
  'Saturday',
  'Sunday',
  'Monday',
  'Tuesday',
  'Wednesday',
  'Thursday',
  'Friday'
]

// Or use between:

arrayOf(days, { weekday: 'long' }).between(today, today + days * 7)
 [
  'Saturday',
  'Sunday',
  'Monday',
  'Tuesday',
  'Wednesday',
  'Thursday',
  'Friday'
]

In the above examples, you need to import days. Alternatively you can call arrayOf like this:

arrayOf('days', 7)
arrayOf({ days: 7})

Formatting

msdate uses Intl.DateTimeFormat. Provide an options object as per the spec to format.

arrayOf also accepts the same object (or even a function like toDate) as an optional second argument (see above examples).

import { now, today, toDate, format } from '@mls44/msdate'

format(now,  toDate)
 2020-06-20T23:20:27.448Z

format(now, { weekday: 'long' })
 Sunday

Functional

toDate, fromDate, and format can be used functionally, e.g. [...].map(toDate).

import { now, today, arrayOf, days, toDate, fromDate, format } from '@mls44/msdate'

arrayOf(days, 7).from(today).map(toDate)
