Find next instance of a given weekday (ie. Monday) with moment.js

Question

I want to get the date of the next Monday or Thursday (or today if it is Mon or Thurs). As Moment.js works within the bounds of a Sunday - Saturday, I\'m having to work out

Answer 1

The following can be used to get any next weekday date from now (or any date)

var weekDayToFind = moment().day('Monday').weekday(); //change to searched day name

var searchDate = moment(); //now or change to any date
while (searchDate.weekday() !== weekDayToFind){ 
  searchDate.add(1, 'day'); 
}
