Incrementing a date in JavaScript

Question

I need to increment a date value by one day in JavaScript.

For example, I have a date value 2010-09-11 and I need to store the date of the next day in a JavaScript v

Answer 1

This a simpler method , and it will return the date in simple yyyy-mm-dd format , Here it is

function incDay(date, n) {
    var fudate = new Date(new Date(date).setDate(new Date(date).getDate() + n));
    fudate = fudate.getFullYear() + '-' + (fudate.getMonth() + 1) + '-' + fudate.toDateString().substring(8, 10);
    return fudate;
}

example :

var tomorrow = incDay(new Date(), 1); // the next day of today , aka tomorrow :) .
var spicaldate = incDay("2020-11-12", 1); // return "2020-11-13" .
var somedate = incDay("2020-10-28", 5); // return "2020-11-02" .

Note

incDay(new Date("2020-11-12"), 1); 
incDay("2020-11-12", 1); 

will return the same result .
