I want to add 30 minutes and then one hour to my variable which i already have my own date
var initialDate = '10:00';
So
if (some condition){
// i add 30 minutes ->10:30
}elseif(another condition){
// i add 1hour ->11:00
}
I tried this but doesn't work
var initialDate = '10:00';
var theAdd = new Date(initialDate);
var finalDate = theAdd.setMinutes(theAdd.getMinutes() + 30);
If I understand you correctly, the following will help you.
You need to add momentjs dependency via script tag and you can Parse, validate, manipulate, and display dates in JavaScript.
You can find more documentation regarding this in momentjs website
console.log(moment.utc('10:00','hh:mm').add(1,'hour').format('hh:mm'));
console.log(moment.utc('10:00','hh:mm').add(30,'minutes').format('hh:mm'));<script src="https://momentjs.com/downloads/moment-with-locales.js"></script>
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>var theAdd = new Date();
// Set Hours, minutes, secons and miliseconds
theAdd.setHours(10, 00, 00, 000);
if (some condition) {
// add 30 minutes --> 10:30
theAdd.setMinutes(theAdd.getMinutes() + 30);
}
elseif (some condition) {
// add 1 hour --> 11:00
theAdd.setHours(theAdd.getHours() + 1);
}
Then you print the var theAdd to obtain the date and time.
To obtain just the time:
theAdd.getHours() + ":" + theAdd.getMinutes();
This should do the job. Dates need a year and month in their constructor, and you have to specify larger units of time if you specify and smaller ones, so it needs a day as well. Also, you have to pass in the hours and minutes separately. See https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/Date.
var initialDate = '10:00';
var theAdd = new Date(1900,0,1,initialDate.split(":")[0],initialDate.split(":")[1]);
if(30 min condition){
theAdd.setMinutes(theAdd.getMinutes() + 30);
} else if (1 hour condition){
theAdd.setHours(theAdd.getHours() + 1);
}
console.log(theAdd.getHours()+":"+theAdd.getMinutes());
