I want to get current weekdays
Let's say Today is 29 Wednesday (29 day and Wednesday Week)
How do I get this
*26 Sunday
*27 Monday
*28 Tuesday
*29 Wednesday
30 Thursday
31 Friday
1 Saturday
const name = ['Sun', 'Mon', 'Tue', 'Wed', 'Thu', 'Fri', 'Sat']
const now = Date.now();
const DAY = 60 * 60 * 24 * 1000;
const today = new Date(now).getDay();
for (let i = today; i >= 0; i--) {
const date = new Date(now - DAY * i);
console.log("*",name[date.getDay()], date.getDate());
}
for (let i = 1; i < 7 - today; i++) {
const date = new Date(now + DAY * i);
console.log(name[date.getDay()], date.getDate());
}The function you're looking for on a Date object is getDay(). It returns a number between 0 and 6 (where 0 is Sunday). You could create an array of day names and use the getDay function to fetch the name from it. E.g.
const dayNames = [
'Sunday',
'Monday',
'Tuesday',
'Wednesday',
'Thursdsay',
'Friday',
'Saturday',
];
// get todays date
const today = new Date();
return dayNames(today.getDay());
You can read more about the getDay function on the MDN web docs here and the Date object here.
Similarly getDate() returns the date of the Date object.
