Note You need to initialize the calculator with your library:
import { datefnsCalculator } from "calcdate"
import datefns from "datefns";
const calculator = datefnsCalculator(datefns);
Api docs
Calling the calculator is easy:
calculator`<expression>`
Example
// Imports
import { datefnsCalculator } from "calcdate"
import datefns from "datefns";
// Setup
const calculator = datefnsCalculator(datefns);
// Examples:
calculator`2009-12T12:34`;
calculator`P0002--10-15T10:+30:20`;
calculator`NOW + 7days`;
calculator`2009-12T12:00 - 2019-12T12:00`;
where calculator is your imported calculator and expression is what you want calculated. The following section outlines what is permitted in expressions.
Initializing
The calculator has to be initialized by passing it the library you are usigng it with with.
const luxon = require("luxon");
const calculator = require("calcdate").luxoncalc(luxon);
Types
Being a date-calculator the primary types used in expressions are date-times and the differences in between them (being durations and intervals).
Date-Time
A datetime is an exact point in time. It can be expressed as a ISO-8601-date-time (see w3 and wikipedia). Simply put, use the format YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm:ss.sss
("extended format"). All parts (but the year) are optional. If a part is not present, its default is used (0 for times and 1 for dates; 2019
= 2019-01-01T00:00:00.000
). You can also use the normal form YYYYMMDD hhmmsssss
. You can also add a time-zone using YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm:ss.sss+-hh:mm
or YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm:ss.sssZ
for utc.

Binding depended
Each parser may provide its own parsing-from-string mechanism using {....}
-notation.
Example
{"2012 juillet", "YYYY MMM", "fr"}
+ moment-bindings
{"12/11/2000", "MM/dd/yyyy"}
+ luxon-bindings
Duration
A duration expresses a time-period, aka "how long". A duration may be expressed using an iso-duration or the short-hand notation as follows.
Note
Without a start- or end-date (see Interval) the units in a duration are hard to compare. For example, a duration of 1 month
can be either anywhere from 28 days (2019-02-01/2019-03-01) to 31 days (2019-12-01/2020-01-01). Therefore some operations might be unsafe to perform, such as 1 month / 1 days
(interpreted as "how many days fit into a month"). Depending on the bindings a loss of information and accuracy may occurs. (Also see luxon-notes.)
Short-hand notation
Each short-hand notation has three different forms which can be used synonymously: spelled-out singular, plural and shorthand (which makes it a shorthand-shorthand, I guess?). Whitespace is irrelevant. So 1 day
, 1 days
, 1 d
, 1day
, 1days
, 1d
all mean "1 day".
| singular | plural | shorthand | example | notes |
| ----------- | ------------ | --------- | ------- | ------------------ |
| millisecond | milliseconds | ms | 5ms
| |
| second | seconds | s | 1 s
| alias: ss, sec |
| minute | minutes | m | 1 min
| alias: min, mm, Tm |
| hour | hours | h | 1 h
| alias: hh |
| day | days | d | 1 d
| |
| weekday | weekdays | wd | 1 wd
| |
| week | weeks | w | 1 w
| |
| fortnight | fortnights | fn | 1 fn
| = two weeks |
| month | months | M | 1 M
| alias: l, L |
| quarter | quarters | q | 1 q
| |
| year | years | y | 1 y
| alias: a |
In general these notation are caseinsensetive and can be pluralized, with the following exceptions:
M
, months, not to be confused withm
, minutesm
, minutes, see abovems
, milliseconds, not to be confusedMs
, plural ofM
, months
Iso-Notation
Durations may be written in iso as PnYnMnDTnHnMnS
(where n
is a any number).
From wikipedia:
P is the duration designator (for period) placed at the start of the duration representation.
Y is the year designator that follows the value for the number of years.
M is the month designator that follows the value for the number of months.
W is the week designator that follows the value for the number of weeks.
D is the day designator that follows the value for the number of days.
T is the time designator that precedes the time components of the representation.
H is the hour designator that follows the value for the number of hours.
M is the minute designator that follows the value for the number of minutes.
S is the second designator that follows the value for the number of seconds.
"+" and "-" are allowed for the entire expression and parts individually. Thus +P1Y
(1 year), -P1Y
(minus 1 year) and -P-1y
(minus minus 1 year = 1 year) are valid.
Examples
// Iso extended form, any number of digits allowed
P1Y2M3DT4H05M600S // 1 year, 2 months, 3 days, 4 hours, 5 minutes, 600 seconds
PT3H5M // 3 hours, 5 minus
P1Y // 1 year
P-1Y1M // -1 year, 1 month -> effectively 11 month
P1DT-30S // 1 day, -30 seconds
P1Y // 1 year
P2M // 2 month
P3D // 3 days
PT4H // 4 hours
PT05M // 5 minutes; padding with 0s is allowed
PT600S // 600 seconds; more than 2 digits are allowed
P1y2m3dT4h5m6s // 1 year, 2 months, 3 days, 4 hours, 5 minutes, 6 seconds; case-insensitive
// Iso-short-form, 4 digits for year, 2 for each other component
P00021015T103020 // 2 years, 10 months, 15 days, 10 hours, 30 minutes, 20 seconds
P00021015 // 2 years, 10 months, 15 days
P0002-10-15T10:30:20 // 2 years, 10 months, 15 days, 10 hours, 30 minutes, 20 seconds
P0002-10-15 // 2 years, 10 months, 15 days
+P00021015T103020
+P00021015
+P0002-10-15T10:30:20
+P0002-10-15
-P00021015T103020 // -2 years, -10 months, -15 days, -10 hours, -30 minutes, -20 seconds
-P00021015
-P0002-10-15T10:30:20
-P0002-10-15
P+00021015T103020
P0002-1015
P0002--10-15T10:+30:20 // 2 years, -10 month, 15 days, 10 hours, 30 minutes, 20 seconds
P0002-10--15 // 2 years, 10 months, -15 days
-P0002-10--15 // -2 years, -10 months, --15 days = 15 days
Note
The time designator is mandatory when denoting times, so P1H
would be invalid while PT1H
would be fine.
Binding depended
Each parser may provide its own parsing-from-string mechanism using [....]
-notation.
Example
[ {"years": 1, "quarters"": 3, "milliseconds": 27} ]
+ luxon-bindings - uses luxon.Duration.fromObject
Interval
An interval expresses the duration between a start- and an end-date. It can be understood as a box for two dates and the duration in between. Hence an interval can be constructed by providing a start- and an end-date, or a start-date and a duration (end-date = start-date + duration), or an end-date and a duration (start-date = end-date - duration).
Intervals may be written as Iso-intervals. The three options are:
- Iso-Date-Time/Iso-Date-Time
- Iso-Date-Time/Iso-Duration
- Iso-Duration/Iso-Date-Time
Iso-Date-Time and Iso-Duration use the same parsing mechanisms described above and hence allow the notations outlined above.
Examples
2009-12T12:34/20090519 143922+0600
P1Y2M3DT4H05M600S/2009-12T12:34
2009-12T12:34/P1Y2M3DT4H05M600S
For more examples, combine any date-time example with another date-time-example or any duration-example.
Note Not all bindings support intervals!
Binding depended
Each parser may provide its own parsing-from-string mechanism using ~....~
-notation.
Example
~2007-03-01T13:00:00Z/P1Y2M10DT2H30M~
+ luxon-bindings - uses luxon.Interval.fromISO
Unitless
You may enter "bare" numbers, such as 2
. They are treated as such. This might be useful for scalar operations such as 2 * 2d
(= 4 d
).
Examples
1
0
100
-10
-5
0
-09
1 + 1 // 2
10 + 15 - 25 // 0
3 * 5 // 15
3d * -1 // -3d
88 / 11 // 8
1 / 2 // 0.5
2.5 * 2 // 5
2d * 5 // 10d
7 - 8 // -1
Warning
Longer number are going to be interpreted as Iso-dates and thus might fail parsing! If you need to use numbers with more digits than 3, consider using interpolation instead.
2000 // 2000-01-01T00:00:00
`${2000}` // 'number' 2000
Custom / Existing values
Use interpolation to insert custom type:
calculator`${any_thing_here}`
This allows you to use your existing Date/luxon-Date-Times/moments/luxon-Intervals/... directly in the calculator.
The bindings define what custom types are supported!
That means, if you interpolate a datefnsCalculator with a luxon-Date-Time it will likely throw an error, as date-fns can't make sense of the luxon-object.
Examples
import DateTime from 'luxon/src/datetime.js';
luxonCalculator`${DateTime.fromSQL(...)} + ${{ hours: 3, minutes: 13 }}`
import moment from 'moment';
momentCalculator`${moment()} + ${moment.duration(2, 'seconds');}`
Operations
Add ("plus", "+")
Adds two "things". The binding implementation defines what "add" means and if it has a meaning at all!
Example

Subtract ("minus", "-")
Subtracts two "things" - binding defines the meaning. Can also be interpreted as a "until", as in "2019 - 2020" yielding an interval between those in some implementations.

Other
Additionally (
+ )
is permitted to group any expression and give its evaluation priority. Nesting is allowed. (Or expressed differently: (...)
works as you would expect!)
Example
( 1d - 5h ) * 2
On top there is the keywords "now" (alias "today", both case-insensitive), which creates a Date-Time with the value of "now".
Operator precedence
| Priority | Expression | Example | | -------- | ------------------ | ---------------------------------- | | 1 | Interval | 2009-12T12:34/20090519 143922+0600 | | 2 | now, today | now, now(), Today | | 2 | Custom Constructor | {....}, [....], ~....~ | | 2 | Duration | P1D | | 2 | Date-Time | 2019 | | 2 | Duration shorthand | 1 day | | 3 | Unitless | 1 | | 4 | Brackets | ( .... ) | | 5 | Multiply | .. * .. | | 5 | Divide | .. / .. | | 6 | Plus | .. + .. | | 6 | Minus | .. - .. |
This order insures that 2019/P1D
is an interval while 2019 / P1D
means "divide 2019 by P1D".
It also care to interpret 2019-08
as "August of 2019", while 2019 - 08
means "The date 2019 minus unitless 8".
Bring your own lib date-lib
The date-calculator itself is not bound to any library. You can 'teach' it to work with any library by implementing 'bindings'. To create a new calculator type import the calculatorFactory (aka "parser") and call it with your bindings (see below).
import calculatorFactory from "./calcdate";
const yourCalculator = calculatorFactory({
makeDate: ...,
makeDuration: ...,
makeInterval: ...,
add: ...,
subtract: ...,
multiply: ...,
divide: ...
});
You will need to implement the following methods:
makeDate
You function to create a new date. It can take the following two signatures:
makeDate(date: Native_Date, { type: calculatorFactory.NATIVEDATE }) : YourDateType
makeDate(date: any, { type: calculatorFactory.DATEXPRESION }) : YourDateType
, created by calculator{any_string}
makeDuration
makeDuration({ milliseconds, seconds, minutes, hours, days, weekdays, weeks, months, years } : { milliseoncds: Number?, seconds: Number?, minutes: Number?, hours: Number?, days: Number?, weekdays: Number?, weeks: Number?, months: Number?, years: Number? }, { type: calculatorFactory.DURATIONOBJECT }) : YourDurationType
makeDuration(duration: any, { type: calculatorFactory.DURATIONEXPRESSION }) : YourDurationType
, created by calculator[any_string]
makeInterval
makeInterval([from: YourDateType, to: YourDateType], { type: calculatorFactory.INTERVALOBJECT }) : YourIntervalType
makeInterval([from: YourDateType, to: YourDurationType], { type: calculatorFactory.INTERVALOBJECT }) : YourIntervalType
makeInterval([from: YourDurationType, to: YourDateType], { type: calculatorFactory.INTERVALOBJECT }) : YourIntervalType
makeInterval(interval: any, { type: calculatorFactory.DURATIONEXPRESSION }) : INTERVALEXPRESION
, created by calculator~any_string~
add
add(a, b) : c
, where a, b, c
are YourDateType | YourDurationType | YourIntervalType | { unitless: Number } | any
Examples
now + 1 day
-add(a: YourDateType, b: YourDurationType)
now + 1
-add(a: YourDateType, { unitless: 1 } : { unitless: Number })
P3Y6M4DT12H30M5S + 1 day
-add(a: YourDurationType, b: YourDurationType)
2019-01-01/2019-01-02 + now
-add(a: YourIntervalType, b: YourDateType)
${new RegExp("foobar")} + ~hello world~
-add(a: any, b: YourIntervalType)
1d + 1h + 1m
-add(add(a: YourDurationType, b: YourDurationType), x: YourDurationType)
Note You should throw (helpful) errors when you can't make sense of the arguments. For example adding up two duration makes sense - adding up two dates might not! The same applies for all the operations!
subtract
subtract(a, b) : c
, where a, b, c
are YourDateType | YourDurationType | YourIntervalType | { unitless: Number } | any
now - 1 day
-subtract(a: YourDateType, b: YourDurationType)

2019-01-01/2019-01-02 - now
-subtract(a: YourIntervalType, b: YourDateType)
${new RegExp("foobar")} - ~hello world~
-subtract(a: any, b: YourIntervalType)
1d - 1h - 1m
-subtract(add(a: YourDurationType, b: YourDurationType), x: YourDurationType)
Note You should throw (helpful) errors when you can't make sense of the arguments. For example substracting a duration from a date makes sense - substracting a date from a duration might not!
multiply
multiply(a, b) : c
, where a, b, c
are YourDateType | YourDurationType | YourIntervalType | { unitless: Number } | any
now * 1 day
-multiply(a: YourDateType, b: YourDurationType)
now * 1
-multiply(a: YourDateType, { unitless: 1 } : { unitless: Number })
P3Y6M4DT12H30M5S * 1 day
-multiply(a: YourDurationType, b: YourDurationType)
2019-01-01/2019-01-02 * now
-multiply(a: YourIntervalType, b: YourDateType)
${new RegExp("foobar")} * ~hello world~
-multiply(a: any, b: YourIntervalType)
1d * 1h * 1m
-multiply(add(a: YourDurationType, b: YourDurationType), x: YourDurationType)
Note You should throw (helpful) errors when you can't make sense of the arguments. For example multiplying a duration by a unitless makes sense - multiplying a duration by another might not!
divide
divide(a, b) : c
, where a, b, c
are YourDateType | YourDurationType | YourIntervalType | { unitless: Number } | any
now / 1 day
-divide(a: YourDateType, b: YourDurationType)
now / 1
-divide(a: YourDateType, { unitless: 1 } : { unitless: Number })
P3Y6M4DT12H30M5S / 1 day
-divide(a: YourDurationType, b: YourDurationType)
2019-01-01/2019-01-02 / now
-divide(a: YourIntervalType, b: YourDateType)
${new RegExp("foobar")} / ~hello world~
-divide(a: any, b: YourIntervalType)
1d / 1h / 1m
-divide(add(a: YourDurationType, b: YourDurationType), x: YourDurationType)
Note You should throw (helpful) errors when you can't make sense of the arguments. For example dividing a duration by another might make sense (could be "how many durations x fit into duration y") - dividing a unitless by an interval might not!
