Moment JS - how to subtract 7 days from current date?

Question

I would like to subtract 7 days from current date to get formatted date YYYY-MM-DD using moment.js library.

I tried to do by this way:

Answer 1

The date object, when casted, is in milliseconds. so:

dateFrom = moment(Date.now() - 7 * 24 * 3600 * 1000).format('YYYY-MM-DD'); 

Answer 2

May be:

dateTo = moment().format('YYYY-MM-DD');
dateFrom = moment().subtract(7,'d').format('YYYY-MM-DD');

moment#subtract

Answer 3

for a date picker y use

 first_day: moment()
    .subtract(5, "day")
    .endOf("day")
    .toDate(),
  last_day: moment()
    .endOf("day")
    .toDate(),

Answer 4

Easiest method to get last 7th day

moment().subtract(7, 'days').startOf('day').format('YYYY-MM-DD HH:mm:ss')

Answer 5

The question is outdated so does the solution.

Using Moment v2.29 +

You can add or subtract days using following ways

moment().day(-7); // last Sunday (0 - 7)
moment().day(0); // this Sunday (0)
moment().day(7); // next Sunday (0 + 7)
moment().day(10); // next Wednesday (3 + 7)
moment().day(24); // 3 Wednesdays from now (3 + 7 + 7 + 7)
