ViewsGet Day Name from Date in JS
Hello guys, i need some help over here, hope that you can provide me the solution.
How can i transform this Date format to a Format that shows the names of the days.
I know that i can use something like this but i dont know how to add that when im mapping data from an object or array.
let getDayName = (dateStr, locale) => {
let date = new Date(dateStr);
// console.log(date.toLocaleDateString(locale, { weekday: 'long' }));
return date.toLocaleDateString(locale, { weekday: 'long' });
};
let dateStr = date;

You can add another map declaration and do it there like so:
.filter(() => {})
.map((item) => {
item.dt_txt = getDayName(item.dt_txt);
return item;
})
.map(() => {})

You are on the right track. Only thing missing is, that you need to call your function getDayName() and provide sufficient arguments.
Here an example:
const array = ["2022-05-30 18:00:00", "2022-05-30 17:00:00", "2022-05-25 18:00:00"]
const getDayName = (dateStr, locale) => {
let date = new Date(dateStr);
return date.toLocaleDateString(locale, { weekday: 'long' });
};
const output = array.map(dateStr => getDayName(dateStr, "en-GB"))
console.log(output).as-console-wrapper { max-height: 100% !important; top: 0; }In your case you are already mapping using map(), therefore you would just need to call your function within the callback of map():
<!-- other code... -->
<div className="fd-day">
<h1>{getDayName(item.dt_txt, "en-GB")}</h1>
</div>
<!-- some more code... -->
instead of
<!-- other code... -->
<div className="fd-day">
<h1>{item.dt_txt}</h1>
</div>
<!-- some more code... -->
Of course you can adjust the locale to whatever fits your needs.
