How to enumerate dates between two dates in Moment

Question

I have two moment dates:

var fromDate = moment(new Date(\'1/1/2014\'));
var toDate   = moment(new Date(\'6/1/2014\'));

Does moment provide

Answer 1

Got it for you:

var enumerateDaysBetweenDates = function(startDate, endDate) {
    var now = startDate.clone(), dates = [];

    while (now.isSameOrBefore(endDate)) {
        dates.push(now.format('M/D/YYYY'));
        now.add(1, 'days');
    }
    return dates;
};

Referencing now rather than startDate made all the difference.

If you're not after an inclusive search then change .isSameOrBefore to .isBefore

Using moment library and for loop you can enumerate between two dates.

let startDate = moment('2020-06-21');
let endDate = moment('2020-07-15');
let date = [];

for (var m = moment(startDate); m.isBefore(endDate); m.add(1, 'days')) {
    date.push(m.format('YYYY-MM-DD'));
}

console.log(date)

Answer 3

use moment and work with while loop, code will run in loop untill startDate is equal to endDate and push startDate and then increment it with 1 day so can get next date

function enumerateDaysBetweenDates (startDate, endDate){
  let date = []
  while(moment(startDate) <= moment(endDate)){
    date.push(startDate);
    startDate = moment(startDate).add(1, 'days').format("YYYY-MM-DD");
  }
  return date;
}

you can test it by calling function like this

let dateArr = enumerateDaysBetweenDates('2019-01-01', '2019-01-10');

Momentjs doesn't provide this by itself but there is a plugin which offers it: moment-range.

Specifically, check out the Iteration docs.

Answer 5

You can easily enumerate with moment.js Here is a more generic solution for days, weeks, months or years:

Answer 6

As an extension of Kyle's answer - I've been trying to get this to work with Unix timestamps and after lots of trial and error I got it to work and thought I'd post it here in case anyone is seeking the same thing and needs it. See my code below:

fromDate = moment.unix(req.params.dateFrom).format('YYYY-MM-DD')
toDate = moment.unix(req.params.dateTo).format('YYYY-MM-DD')

// Returns an array of dates between the two dates
function enumerateDaysBetweenDates(startDate, endDate) {
    startDate = moment(startDate);
    endDate = moment(endDate);

    var now = startDate, dates = [];

    while (now.isBefore(endDate) || now.isSame(endDate)) {
        dates.push(now.format('YYYY-MM-DD'));
        now.add(1, 'days');
    }
    return dates;
};

Note that I convert it to Unix, then convert that value to moment again. This was the issue that I had, you need to make it a moment value again in order for this to work.

Example usage:

fromDate = '2017/03/11' // AFTER conversion from Unix
toDate = '2017/03/13' // AFTER conversion from Unix

console.log(enumerateDaysBetweenDates(fromDate, toDate));

Will return:

['2017/03/11', '2017/03/12', '2017/03/13']
