If current time is between two times using moment

Question

I\'m trying to find if the current local time is between two other times using momentjs.

I have the following code:

var currentTime = moment().format         


        

Answer 1

Don't format the dates you get back from moment if you're planning on comparing them.

format() returns a string, not a date/time-comparable object.

var currentTime = moment();

var extra = moment().format('YYYY-MM-DD') + ' ';
var start_time = moment(extra + '16:00');
var end_time = moment(extra + '16:30');

if (moment(currentTime).isBetween(start_time, end_time))
  console.log('TRUE');
else
  console.log('FALSE');
