I'm trying to create a function that creates a dynamic date range based on the date supplied in a string.
What I've done so far:
Capture date in the string I'm looking to change;
Check to see if that date is a Thursday (if so the range will need to account for the weekend)
What I need to do:
Find a way to get the second date in the range to account for the weekend;
Find a way to make sure that the second date takes into account the last day of the month.
Apologies for old syntax, GTM doesn't like anything using ES6 so I'm a little constrained on this project.
Note I am using DD/MM/YYYY
var regex = /[\d\/\d\/\d]/g;
var text = document.querySelector('.shipmentLineTitle b');
var originalDate = text.innerText.match(regex, "");
if (originalDate.length > 10) {
originalDate.pop();
originalDate.join('');
}
var ogDateString = originalDate.join('');
var dayNumber = originalDate.splice(0, 2).join('');
var monthNumber = originalDate.splice(1, 2).join('');
var yearNumber = originalDate.splice(2, 4).join('');
// if originalDate is a thursday (5) dynamicString will need to be a Monday (1).
var date = new Date(yearNumber, monthNumber -1, dayNumber);
var dynamicDateString = "";
if (date.getDay == 5) {
var newDate = new Date(date) + (86400000 * 3);
var dd = newDate.getDate();
var mm = newDate.getMonth() +1;
var yy = newDate.getFullYear();
dymamicDateString = dd + '/' + mm + '/' + yy;
} else {
var newDate = new Date(date) + 86400000;
var dd = newDate.getDate();
var mm = newDate.getMonth() +1;
var yy = newDate.getFullYear();
dynamicDateString = dd + '/' + mm + '/' + yy;
}
var newContent = 'Delivery will be made between ' + ogDateString + ' - ' + dynamicDateString + '. An accurate delivery date will be provided after you place your order.';
text.innerText = newContent;
<span class="shipmentLineTitle">Delivery details: <b>your delivery will arrive on 09/10/2020 (1 delivery)</b></span>
Thursday is day 4
Here is a simpler script
var textField = document.querySelector('.shipmentLineTitle b'),
text = textField.innerText,
originalDate = text.match(/\d{2}\/\d{2}\/\d{4}/)[0].split("/"),
dayNumber = +originalDate[0],
monthNumber = +originalDate[1],
yearNumber = +originalDate[2],
date = new Date(yearNumber, monthNumber - 1, dayNumber, 15, 0, 0, 0),
aDay = 86400000,
newDate = new Date(date),
day = date.getDay(),
daysToAdd = 1; // Sunday to Wednesday
// if originalDate is a Thursday (4) or Saturday (6), dynamicString will need to be a Monday (1).
if (day === 4) daysToAdd = 4; // Thursday - delivery Monday
else if (day === 6) daysToAdd = 2; // Saturday
newDate.setDate(newDate.getDate() + daysToAdd);
var dd = newDate.getDate(),
mm = newDate.getMonth() + 1,
yy = newDate.getFullYear(),
dynamicDateString = dd + '/' + mm + '/' + yy,
newContent = text + ' - ' + dynamicDateString + '</b>. An accurate delivery date will be provided after you place your order.';
textField.innerHTML = newContent;
<span class="shipmentLineTitle">Delivery details: <b>your delivery will arrive on 08/10/2020 (1 delivery)</b></span>
I would suggest to user moment.js a very good date library to manipulate dates. It has lot of function to add/substract dates, hours, days etc.
There is https://www.npmjs.com/package/moment-business-days which servers exactly what you need
I have a script that prints the current date and time in JavaScript, but the DATE is always wrong. Here is the code:
var currentdate = new Date();
var datetime = "Last Sync: " + currentdate.getDay() + "/" + currentdate.getMonth()
+ "/" + currentdate.getFullYear() + " # "
+ currentdate.getHours() + ":"
+ currentdate.getMinutes() + ":" + currentdate.getSeconds();
It should print 18/04/2012 15:07:33 and prints 3/3/2012 15:07:33
.getMonth() returns a zero-based number so to get the correct month you need to add 1, so calling .getMonth() in may will return 4 and not 5.
So in your code we can use currentdate.getMonth()+1 to output the correct value. In addition:
.getDate() returns the day of the month <- this is the one you want
.getDay() is a separate method of the Date object which will return an integer representing the current day of the week (0-6) 0 == Sunday etc
so your code should look like this:
var currentdate = new Date();
var datetime = "Last Sync: " + currentdate.getDate() + "/"
+ (currentdate.getMonth()+1) + "/"
+ currentdate.getFullYear() + " # "
+ currentdate.getHours() + ":"
+ currentdate.getMinutes() + ":"
+ currentdate.getSeconds();
JavaScript Date instances inherit from Date.prototype. You can modify the constructor's prototype object to affect properties and methods inherited by JavaScript Date instances
You can make use of the Date prototype object to create a new method which will return today's date and time. These new methods or properties will be inherited by all instances of the Date object thus making it especially useful if you need to re-use this functionality.
// For todays date;
Date.prototype.today = function () {
return ((this.getDate() < 10)?"0":"") + this.getDate() +"/"+(((this.getMonth()+1) < 10)?"0":"") + (this.getMonth()+1) +"/"+ this.getFullYear();
}
// For the time now
Date.prototype.timeNow = function () {
return ((this.getHours() < 10)?"0":"") + this.getHours() +":"+ ((this.getMinutes() < 10)?"0":"") + this.getMinutes() +":"+ ((this.getSeconds() < 10)?"0":"") + this.getSeconds();
}
You can then simply retrieve the date and time by doing the following:
var newDate = new Date();
var datetime = "LastSync: " + newDate.today() + " # " + newDate.timeNow();
Or call the method inline so it would simply be -
var datetime = "LastSync: " + new Date().today() + " # " + new Date().timeNow();
To get time and date you should use
new Date().toLocaleString();
>> "09/08/2014, 2:35:56 AM"
To get only the date you should use
new Date().toLocaleDateString();
>> "09/08/2014"
To get only the time you should use
new Date().toLocaleTimeString();
>> "2:35:56 AM"
Or if you just want the time in the format hh:mm without AM/PM for US English
new Date().toLocaleTimeString('en-US', { hour12: false,
hour: "numeric",
minute: "numeric"});
>> "02:35"
or for British English
new Date().toLocaleTimeString('en-GB', { hour: "numeric",
minute: "numeric"});
>> "02:35"

I develop Steve answer to get exactly what OP need
new Date().toLocaleString().replace(',','')
console.log(new Date().toLocaleString().replace(',',''));
var currentdate = new Date();
var datetime = "Last Sync: " + currentdate.getDate() + "/"+(currentdate.getMonth()+1)
+ "/" + currentdate.getFullYear() + " # "
+ currentdate.getHours() + ":"
+ currentdate.getMinutes() + ":" + currentdate.getSeconds();
Change .getDay() method to .GetDate() and add one to month, because it counts months from 0.
This should do the trick:
function dateToString(date) {
var month = date.getMonth() + 1;
var day = date.getDate();
var dateOfString = (("" + day).length < 2 ? "0" : "") + day + "/";
dateOfString += (("" + month).length < 2 ? "0" : "") + month + "/";
dateOfString += date.getFullYear();
return dateOfString;
}
var currentdate = new Date();
var datetime = "Last Sync: ";
datetime += dateToString(currentdate );
datetime += + currentdate.getHours() + ":"
+ currentdate.getMinutes() + ":"
+ currentdate.getSeconds();
Basic JS (good to learn): we use the Date() function and do all that we need to show the date and day in our custom format.
var myDate = new Date();
let daysList = ['Sunday', 'Monday', 'Tuesday', 'Wednesday', 'Thursday', 'Friday', 'Saturday'];
let monthsList = ['Jan', 'Feb', 'Mar', 'Apr', 'May', 'Jun', 'Jul', 'Aug', 'Sep', 'Aug', 'Oct', 'Nov', 'Dec'];
let date = myDate.getDate();
let month = monthsList[myDate.getMonth()];
let year = myDate.getFullYear();
let day = daysList[myDate.getDay()];
let today = `${date} ${month} ${year}, ${day}`;
let amOrPm;
let twelveHours = function (){
if(myDate.getHours() > 12)
{
amOrPm = 'PM';
let twentyFourHourTime = myDate.getHours();
let conversion = twentyFourHourTime - 12;
return `${conversion}`
}else {
amOrPm = 'AM';
return `${myDate.getHours()}`}
};
let hours = twelveHours();
let minutes = myDate.getMinutes();
let currentTime = `${hours}:${minutes} ${amOrPm}`;
console.log(today + ' ' + currentTime);
Node JS (quick & easy): Install the npm pagckage using (npm install date-and-time), then run the below.
let nodeDate = require('date-and-time');
let now = nodeDate.format(new Date(), 'DD-MMMM-YYYY, hh:mm:ss a');
console.log(now);
Short and simple:-
console.log(new Date().toLocaleString());
Reference
I have found the simplest way to get current date and time in JavaScript from here - How to get current Date and Time using JavaScript
var today = new Date();
var date = today.getFullYear()+'-'+(today.getMonth()+1)+'-'+today.getDate();
var time = today.getHours() + ":" + today.getMinutes() + ":" + today.getSeconds();
var CurrentDateTime = date+' '+time;
getDay() gets the day of the week. 3 is Wednesday. You want getDate(), that will return 18.
Also getMonth() starts at 0, you need to add 1 to get 4 (April).
DEMO: http://jsfiddle.net/4zVxp/
You need to use getDate() to get the date part. The getDay() function returns the day number (Sunday = 0, Monday = 1...), and the getMonth() returns a 0 based index, so you need to increment it by 1.
var currentdate = new Date();
var datetime = "Last Sync: " + currentdate.getDate() + "/"+ (parseInt(currentdate.getMonth()) + 1)
+ "/" + currentdate.getFullYear() + " # "
+ currentdate.getHours() + ":"
+ currentdate.getMinutes() + ":" + currentdate.getSeconds();
const date = new Date()
console.log(date.toLocaleTimeString("en-us", {timeStyle: "medium"})) // Only Time
console.log(date.toLocaleString()) // For both Date and Time
For Documentation
function getTimeStamp() {
var now = new Date();
return ((now.getMonth() + 1) + '/' + (now.getDate()) + '/' + now.getFullYear() + " " + now.getHours() + ':'
+ ((now.getMinutes() < 10) ? ("0" + now.getMinutes()) : (now.getMinutes())) + ':' + ((now.getSeconds() < 10) ? ("0" + now
.getSeconds()) : (now.getSeconds())));
}
get current date and time
var now = new Date();
var datetime = now.getFullYear()+'/'+(now.getMonth()+1)+'/'+now.getDate();
datetime += ' '+now.getHours()+':'+now.getMinutes()+':'+now.getSeconds();
This question is quite old and the answers are too. Instead of those monstrous functions, we now can use moment.js to get the current date, which actually makes it very easy. All that has to be done is including moment.js in our project and get a well formated date, for example, by:
moment().format("dddd, MMMM Do YYYY, h:mm:ss a");
I think that makes it way easier to handle dates in javascript.
.getDay returns day of week. You need .getDate instead.
.getMonth returns values from 0 to 11. You'll need to add 1 to the result to get "human" month number.
This little code is easy and works everywhere.
<p id="dnt"></p>
<script>
document.getElementById("dnt").innerHTML = Date();

there is room to design
function UniqueDateTime(format='',language='en-US'){
//returns a meaningful unique number based on current time, and milliseconds, making it virtually unique
//e.g : 20170428-115833-547
//allows personal formatting like more usual :YYYYMMDDHHmmSS, or YYYYMMDD_HH:mm:SS
var dt = new Date();
var modele="YYYYMMDD-HHmmSS-mss";
if (format!==''){
modele=format;
}
modele=modele.replace("YYYY",dt.getFullYear());
modele=modele.replace("MM",(dt.getMonth()+1).toLocaleString(language, {minimumIntegerDigits: 2, useGrouping:false}));

modele=modele.replace("mss",dt.getMilliseconds().toLocaleString(language, {minimumIntegerDigits: 3, useGrouping:false}));
return modele;
}
dt= new Date();
alert(dt.toISOString().substring(8,10) + "/" +
dt.toISOString().substring(5,7)+ "/" +
dt.toISOString().substring(0,4) + " " +
dt.toTimeString().substring(0,8))
var datetime = new Date().toLocaleString().slice(0,9) +" "+new Date(new Date()).toString().split(' ')[4];
console.log(datetime);

I needed to figure this out for a slate in after effects. Here's what I came up with after taking elements from a few different sources -- Formatting is MM/DD/YYYY HH:MM AM/PM
D = new Date(Date(00));
M = D.getMonth()+1;
H = D.getHours();
Mi = D.getMinutes();
N = "AM"
if (H >= 12)
N = "PM"
if (H > 12)
{
H = H-12
}
amtOfZeroes = 2;
isNeg = false;
if (M < 0)
{
M = Math.abs(M);
isNeg = true;
}
Mo = Math.round(M) + "";
while(Mo.length < amtOfZeroes)
{
Mo = "0" + Mo;
}
if (isNeg)
Mo = "-" + Mo;
if (H < 0)
{
H = Math.abs(H);
isNeg = true;
}
Ho = Math.round(H) + "";
while(Ho.length < amtOfZeroes)
{
Ho = "0" + Ho;
}
if (isNeg)
Ho = "-" + Ho;
if (Mi < 0)
{
Mi = Math.abs(Mi);
isNeg = true;
}
Min = Math.round(Mi) + "";
while(Min.length < amtOfZeroes)
{
Min = "0" + Min;
}
if (isNeg)
Min = "-" + Min;
T = Ho + ":" + (Min)
Mo + "/" + D.getDate() + "/" + D.getFullYear() + " " + T + " " + N
If someone is in search of function

we can use :
new Date().toLocaleDateString() to fetch current date and
new Date().toLocaleTimeString() to fetch current time
Ex:
const date = new Date().toLocaleDateString();
const time = new Date().toLocaleTimeString();
