get week number from date in whole week base in javascript

I have searched the web and found the script to get the week number in year. However my counting is difference. The below image is the week number I want to get. When I tested using '1/5/2015', my code got week number is 2, but the week number should be 1 in my requirement. Would someone can help me. Thanks in advance.
I found the javascript at IamSilviu/Get week number
There is my code:
function myWeekNumber(thisDate) {
var dt = new Date(thisDate)
var onejan=new Date(dt.getFullYear(), 0, 2);
return Math.ceil((((dt - onejan) / 86400000) + onejan.getDay() + 1) / 7); }

The algorithm you're trying to implement seems to be that:
Weeks start on Sunday
The first week of the year is the one that has any days in the year, e.g. 1 Jan 2016 was a Friday, so the first week of 2016 started on Sunday 27 December 2015
In this case, it's best to use UTC methods to avoid daylight saving issues:
function getWeekNumberNonISO(d) {
// Create UTC equivalent for 23:59:59.999 on the passed in date
var sat = new Date(Date.UTC(d.getFullYear(), d.getMonth(), d.getDate(),23,59,59,999));
// Set to Saturday at end of week
sat.setUTCDate(sat.getUTCDate() + 6 - sat.getUTCDay());
// Get first day of year
var firstDay = new Date(Date.UTC(sat.getUTCFullYear(), 0, 1));
// Set to Sunday on or before, i.e. first day of first week in year
firstDay = firstDay.setUTCDate(firstDay.getUTCDate() - firstDay.getUTCDay());
// Week number is difference in dates divided by ms/week rounded
return Math.round((sat - firstDay)/(6.048e8));
}
// Get week number for Mon 5 Jan 2015
console.log(getWeekNumberNonISO(new Date(2015,0,5))); // 2
// Get week number for Sat 31 Dec 2011
console.log(getWeekNumberNonISO(new Date(2011,11,31))); //53
// Get week number for Sat 1 Jan 2011
console.log(getWeekNumberNonISO(new Date(2011,0,1))); // 1
// Get week number for Sun 2 Jan 2011
console.log(getWeekNumberNonISO(new Date(2011,0,2))); // 2

Js has function inbulid function which can be used to fetch the date from the given date of the week getweek().
var week=date.getWeek()

moment.js thinks that 2013-12-31 is week 1, not week 53

The moment.js library is awesome, and I use it almost all the time, but I recently ran into something interesting. I'm trying to plot data by week of the year, and one of the data points was 2013-12-31, moment.js tells me this is week 1? Is there a better way to handle this? either with 53, null, -1, or something?
moment('2013-12-31').week()
(returns) 1
I thought maybe using isoWeek or format would get around this, but they all return the same value of 1, despite the documentation saying it goes to 53.
moment('2013-12-31').isoWeek()
(returns) 1
+moment('2013-12-31').format('w')
(returns) 1
Anyone have any ideas on this? (short of making a test whether the week computed has a min/max date that covers the date value I passed it)

It is because the week from the 30th december 2013 is considered to be the 1st week of 2014 as you may see on this page epoch converter
And according to momentjs documentation:
The week with January 1st in it is the first week of the year.

I had a problem at my work where we used .format('YYYY WW') for some comparison logic.
That doesn't really make sense, as you should probably use .format('gggg WW') in such cases.
moment('2013-12-31').format('YYYY w'); // Returns 2013 1
moment('2013-12-31').format('gggg w'); // Returns 2014 1
https://momentjs.com/docs/#/displaying/format/

This is expected behavior. According to the ISO 8601 standard, 2013 is not a year with 53 weeks.
The long years, with 53 weeks in them, can be described by any of the following equivalent definitions:
any year starting on Thursday (dominical letter D or DC) and any leap year starting on Wednesday (ED)
any year ending on Thursday (D, ED) and any leap year ending on Friday (DC)
years in which 1 January and 31 December (in common years) or either (in leap years) are Thursdays
(source)
2013 started and ended on a Tuesday so therefore it is not a "long year" and 2013-12-31 is considered part of the first week of 2014.
If you want that week to be the 53rd, you'll have to write custom code for it as the ISO standard won't agree with you!

Moment.js docs aren't that straightforward with this I had to move from WW-YYYY to WW-GGGG
moment(2019-12-30T00:20:53.380Z).format(WW-YYYY) // Gave me 01-2019 incorrectly
moment(2019-12-30T00:20:53.380Z).format(WW-GGGG) // Gave me 01-2020 correctly
Findings
If your doing locale weeks, use ww & gggg
If your doing ISO weeks, use WW & GGGG
A mix of w/W & Y is incorrect usage

I had the same problem with the calculation of the week number, starting from the date of Sunday.
Finally I was able to solve the problem by calculating the week number starting not from Sunday but from Monday.
moment(date).isoWeekday(1).week()

Better right a custom method which will convert date into week and that can be customized easily.
//value : (MMM DD YYYY format)
function getEpiWeek(value) {
Date.prototype.getWeek = function () {
var target = new Date(this.valueOf());
// ISO week date weeks start on monday, so correct the day number
var dayNr = (this.getDay() + 7) % 7;
// Set the target to the thursday of this week so the
// target date is in the right year
target.setDate(target.getDate() - dayNr + 3);
// ISO 8601 states that week 1 is the week with january 4th in it
var jan4 = new Date(target.getFullYear(), 0, 4);
// Number of days between target date and january 4th
var dayDiff = (target - jan4) / 86400000;
if (new Date(target.getFullYear(), 0, 1).getDay() < 4) {
return 1 + Math.ceil(dayDiff / 7);
}
else { // jan 4th is on the next week (so next week is week 1)
return Math.ceil(dayDiff / 7);
}
};
var weekNumber = new Date(value).getWeek()
var year = getYear(value, weekNumber);
return weekNumber + ' ' + year;
}
function getYear(value, weekNumber) {
var year = parseInt(value.split(' ')[2]);
if (value.split(' ')[0] == 'Jan') {
if (weekNumber > 40) {
year = year - 1;
}
}
if (value.split(' ')[0] == 'Dec') {
if (weekNumber < 2) {
year = year + 1;
}
}
return year.toString();
}

Personally solved my ordering issue using :
if(d.month()==0) {
week = d.week();
}else{
week=d.isoWeek();
}

JS time calculation - How many times a date has occurred between two dates

I really need some assistance with a time calculation in JS.
Put basically I need to calculate how many times a day of a month has occurred between two dates.
For Example -
A date of 15th of the month between 1st February 2014 to 14 May 2014 would be 3
A date of 15th of the month between 1st February 2014 to 16 May 2014 would be 4
I've looked at moment Jquery library but it estimates that a month is 30 days so I wouldn't be exact and take into consideration leap years - months with 28 days etc..
It really needs to be exact because its for a chargeable event calculation. The dates can spare many years so could lead to in-accuries because of the 30 day thing.
Any help would be appreciated

There are probably a million ways to do this... here's a brute force way:
// add a "addDays() method to Date"
Date.prototype.addDays = function(days)
{
var dat = new Date(this.valueOf());
dat.setDate(dat.getDate() + days);
return dat;
}
// provide two dates and a day ordinal you want to count between the two
function numOrdinalsBetweenDts(Date1, Date2, theOrdinal) {
var temp;
if(Date2 < Date1) { // put dates in the right order (lesser first)
temp = Date1;
Date1 = Date2;
Date2 = temp;
}
var workDate = Date1;
var ctr = 0;
while(workDate < Date2) { // iterate through the calendar until we're past the end
if(workDate.getDate() == theOrdinal) // if we match the ordinal, count it
ctr++;
workDate = workDate.addDays(1); // move the calendar forward a day
}
return ctr;
}
var result = numOrdinalsBetweenDts(new Date("July 21, 1901"), new Date("July 21, 2014"), 2);
console.log(result);
alert(result);

There is a slightly counter-intuitive behavior in the Javascript Date constructor where if you create a new Date with the day set to 0, it will assume the last day of the month. You can the use the following function get the number of days in a month:
function daysInMonth(month, year) {
return new Date(year, month, 0).getDate();
}
The Javascript date object is leap-year aware, so you can use this function reliably.
You then just need to count the number of months between the start and end date and check each one to make sure the day number is actually present in the month. You can short-circuit this check if the day is less than or equal to 28.

Javascript Displaying Date

I want to display yesterday's date, and day.
Script for today's date:
<script type="text/javascript">
<!--
// Array of day names
var dayNames = new Array("Sunday","Monday","Tuesday","Wednesday","Thursday","Friday","Saturday");
// Array of month Names
var monthNames = new Array("January","February","March","April","May","June","July","August","September","October","November","December");
var now = new Date();
document.write(dayNames[now.getDay()] + ", " +
monthNames[now.getMonth()] + " " +
now.getDate() + ", " + now.getFullYear());
// -->
</script>
I know that adding a -1 will change the date/year, but it doesn't successfully change the day of the week/month because we have listed the days/months in an array, so there is nothing before Sunday and nothing before January.
How can I display the date from yesterday/however days ago making sure the day and month will change?

you can try this: see DEMO
dayNames[now.getDay()==0?6:now.getDay()-1]
EDIT:
and for setDate to yesterday : Demo
now.setDate(now.getDate()-1); // set yesterday for now

You can create a Date instance for yesterday:
var yesterday = new Date();
yesterday.setDate(yesterday.getDate() - 1);
You can then proceed as you're currently doing things. The JavaScript Date code will ensure that the right thing happens with all the other fields. In other words, if "today" is 1 Jan, then "yesterday" will be 31 Dec of the previous year.

Yesterday's day of the week: dayNames[(now.getDay() + 6) % 7] (equivalent to -1 + 7)
Last month: monthNames[(now.getMonth() + 11) % 12]

Your best bet is to use a sane date handling library and avoid the horrid 70's-style API that JavaScript provides out-of-the-box. Save your time and sanity and use Moment.js:
// this is a quick way to load, not what I would do for production installs:
eval($.get('http://momentjs.com/downloads/moment.min.js').responseText);
document.write(moment().subtract(1, 'day').format("dddd MMMM D, YYYY"));
Note that this means you can subtract things other than days, like months or years, and it works without you having to remember the math (or DST for that matter):
console.log(moment("2008-02-29").subtract(1, 'year').format("dddd MMMM D, YYYY"))
> Wednesday February 28, 2007
console.log(moment("2008-02-29").add(4, 'years').format("dddd MMMM D, YYYY"))
> Wednesday February 29, 2012
console.log(moment("2008-02-29").add(3, 'years').format("dddd MMMM D, YYYY"))
> Monday February 28, 2011

JavaScript Dateobject Increment goes wrong

I want to increment the year-value of a given date, but this goes wrong.
this is my code:
var endDate = entry.start;
endDate.setDate(endDate.getFullYear() + 5);
and for comparison the output (console.log) is:
Date {Thu Jun 30 2011 11:30:10 GMT+0200}
Date {Tue Dec 06 2016 11:30:10 GMT+0100}
as you can see, it also incremented the month and Day.
What am I missing?
thanks in advance

You have to set the year only, using the setYear method:
endDate.setYear(endDate.getFullYear() + 5);
Using setDate(getFullYear()+5) you add 5 + (year of the date) days to the date value of endDate

You're adding 2016 days to it, not modifying the year, which is 5 and a half year.
