Doing this without libraries.
dates.forEach((date) => {
if(date.getDay() == 6) {
console.log('sat', date)
var t = new Date()
console.log('sat new', new Date(t.setDate(date.getDate() + 1)))
} else ...
}
Gives this output
sat
Date Sat Jan 01 2022 00:00:00 GMT+0200 (Eastern European Standard Time)
sat new
Date Sat Apr 02 2022 19:10:27 GMT+0300 (Eastern European Summer Time)
The point of this code is to see if a date is a saturday. If so, increment it towards becoming a work day (i know it says +1 but its a wip)
The result is that the day gets incremented. However for some reason it moves the date towards being in march. I have looked around and apparently this is how you're supposed to do it, but its not doing it.
When I try console.log('sat new', t.setDate(date.getDate() + 1)) (without new Date()) I get a timestamp of 1646236273249. Which this site converts to the 16th of March. Don't know how useful this is.
I hope I gave all the important information here.
In order to increment a day to a given date:
date = new Date(date)
date.setDate(date.getDate() + 1)
console.log(date)
var t = new Date() - not passing anything to the Date constructor will make it "right now".
I think you need to pass the iterated date to the Date constructor:
dates.forEach((date) => {
if(date.getDay() == 6) {
console.log('sat', date)
var t = new Date(date) // this line
console.log('sat new', new Date(t.setDate(date.getDate() + 1)))
}
}
