date-screwdriver¶ ↑

I needed an independent javascript library for date calculations. It also should feel nice to work with, thats why it is similar to the Rails Date Extension.

Usage¶ ↑

Everything is done at instance level, so let’s create a date instance:

var date = new Date();

Convenience getters as entree:

date.isMonday();   
date.isThuesday(); 
date.isWednesday();
date.isThursday(); 
date.isFriday();   
date.isSaturday(); 
date.isSunday();

Convenience setters as main dish:

date.lastDay();        
date.nextDay();        
date.yesterday();      
date.tomorrow();       
date.beginningOfWeek();
date.endOfWeek();

And some sweets for dessert:

date.toStringDBDate();                 // "2010-02-23"
date.toStringDayNumber();              // 9, 22, ...
date.toStringDayNumberFixed();         // "09", "22", ...
date.toStringDayName();                // "Montag"
date.toStringDayAbbreviation();        // "Mo"

I will add more to the menu on request.
