## What is a Date in JavaScript? | ||
|
||
A Date object in JavaScript is used to work with dates and times. It is used to represent a date and time in JavaScript. It is used to work with dates and times in JavaScript. | ||
|
||
## Creating a Date Object | ||
|
||
A Date object can be created using the `new` keyword followed by the `Date` constructor. | ||
|
||
```js title="Creating a Date object" | ||
let date = new Date(); | ||
``` | ||
|
||
This will create a new Date object initialized with the current date and time. | ||
|
||
## Date Methods | ||
|
||
The Date object has several methods that can be used to work with dates and times. Some of the most commonly used methods are: | ||
|
||
- `getDate()`: Returns the day of the month (1-31). | ||
- `getMonth()`: Returns the month (0-11). | ||
- `getFullYear()`: Returns the year. | ||
- `getHours()`: Returns the hour (0-23). | ||
- `getMinutes()`: Returns the minutes (0-59). | ||
- `getSeconds()`: Returns the seconds (0-59). | ||
- `getMilliseconds()`: Returns the milliseconds (0-999). | ||
- `getTime()`: Returns the number of milliseconds since January 1, 1970. | ||
|
||
```js title="Using Date methods" | ||
let date = new Date(); | ||
console.log(date.getDate()); // 1-31 | ||
console.log(date.getMonth()); // 0-11 | ||
console.log(date.getFullYear()); // year | ||
console.log(date.getHours()); // 0-23 | ||
console.log(date.getMinutes()); // 0-59 | ||
console.log(date.getSeconds()); // 0-59 | ||
console.log(date.getMilliseconds()); // 0-999 | ||
console.log(date.getTime()); // milliseconds since January 1, 1970 | ||
``` | ||
|
||
```jsx live | ||
function myDate() { | ||
const [date, setDate] = useState(new Date()); | ||
useEffect(() => { | ||
const timerID = setInterval(() => tick(), 1000); | ||
|
||
return function cleanup() { | ||
clearInterval(timerID); | ||
}; | ||
}); | ||
|
||
function tick() { | ||
setDate(new Date()); | ||
} | ||
|
||
return ( | ||
<div> | ||
<p>date.getDate(): {date.getDate()}</p> | ||
<p>date.getMonth(): {date.getMonth()}</p> | ||
<p>date.getFullYear(): {date.getFullYear()}</p> | ||
<p>getHours(): {date.getHours()}</p> | ||
<p>date.getMinutes(): {date.getMinutes()}</p> | ||
<p>date.getSeconds(): {date.getSeconds()}</p> | ||
<p>date.getMilliseconds(): {date.getMilliseconds()}</p> | ||
<p>date.getTime(): {date.getTime()}</p> | ||
</div> | ||
); | ||
} | ||
``` | ||
|
||
## Updating a Date Object | ||
|
||
A Date object can be updated using the various `set` methods. | ||
|
||
- `setDate()`: Sets the day of the month (1-31). | ||
- `setMonth()`: Sets the month (0-11). | ||
- `setFullYear()`: Sets the year. | ||
- `setHours()`: Sets the hour (0-23). | ||
- `setMinutes()`: Sets the minutes (0-59). | ||
- `setSeconds()`: Sets the seconds (0-59). | ||
- `setMilliseconds()`: Sets the milliseconds (0-999). | ||
- `setTime()`: Sets the number of milliseconds since January 1, 1970. | ||
|
||
```js title="Updating a Date object" | ||
let date = new Date(); | ||
date.setDate(15); // set the day of the month to 15 | ||
date.setMonth(6); // set the month to July | ||
date.setFullYear(2022); // set the year to 2022 | ||
date.setHours(12); // set the hour to 12 | ||
date.setMinutes(30); // set the minutes to 30 | ||
date.setSeconds(45); // set the seconds to 45 | ||
date.setMilliseconds(500); // set the milliseconds to 500 | ||
date.setTime(1640999405500); // set the date to January 1, 2022 12:30:45.500 PM | ||
``` | ||
|
||
## Working with Dates and Times | ||
|
||
The Date object can be used to work with dates and times in JavaScript. It can be used to perform various operations such as getting and updating date and time, calculating the difference between two dates, formatting dates, and so on. | ||
|
||
```js title="Working with Dates and Times" | ||
let date1 = new Date(); | ||
let date2 = new Date(2022, 6, 15, 12, 30, 0, 0); // July 15, 2022 12:30:00.000 PM | ||
|
||
// calculate the difference between two dates | ||
let diff = date2 - date1; | ||
|
||
// format the date | ||
|
||
let options = { | ||
weekday: "long", | ||
year: "numeric", | ||
month: "long", | ||
day: "numeric", | ||
}; | ||
|
||
console.log(date1.toLocaleDateString("en-US", options)); // Monday, January 1, 2022 | ||
|
||
// add 10 days to the date | ||
|
||
date1.setDate(date1.getDate() + 10); | ||
``` | ||
|
||
:::info 📝 Note | ||
The Date object in JavaScript uses a zero-based index for months (0-11) and a one-based index for days (1-31). | ||
