NSDate beginning of day and end of day

Question

    -(NSDate *)beginningOfDay:(NSDate *)date
{
    NSCalendar *cal = [NSCalendar currentCalendar];
    NSDateComponents *components = [cal components:( NSMonthCalend         


        

Answer 1

Swift 5.1 - XCode 11 with Date class instead of NSDate and Calender instead of NSCalender

extension Date {

    var startOfDay : Date {
        let calendar = Calendar.current
        let unitFlags = Set([.year, .month, .day])
        let components = calendar.dateComponents(unitFlags, from: self)
        return calendar.date(from: components)!
   }

    var endOfDay : Date {
        var components = DateComponents()
        components.day = 1
        let date = Calendar.current.date(byAdding: components, to: self.startOfDay)
        return (date?.addingTimeInterval(-1))!
    }
}

Usage:

    let myDate = Date()
    let startOfDate = myDate.startOfDay
    let endOfDate = myDate.endOfDay
