Lightweight date operations library.

Installation

yarn add @shopify/dates

Usage

This library exports helpers that allow apps to easily work with dates and timezones. Optional time zone parameters that are omitted are inferred as local.

applyTimeZoneOffset

Takes in a date object and two optional time zone string parameters. Returns a new date object with the offset between the time zones added to it. We can also assume the passed date is in the first time zone and we want to calculate it in the second time zone.

import {applyTimeZoneOffset} from '@shopify/dates';

const date = new Date('2018-06-01Z14:00');
const timeZone1 = 'Australia/Perth';
const timeZone2 = 'America/Toronto';

const newDate = applyTimeZoneOffset(date, timeZone1, timeZone2); //'2018-06-01T02:00:00.000Z'

format

Lighter replacement for format() from the moment library. Can output to any given locale / timezone (defaults to the system's locale & timezone). Handles a subset of the tokens moment().format() handles, namely the following:

Month M 1 2 ... 11 12
MM 01 02 ... 11 12
MMM Jan Feb ... Nov Dec
MMMM January February ... November December
Day of Month D 1 2 ... 30 31
DD 01 02 ... 30 31
Day of Week ddd Sun Mon ... Fri Sat
dddd Sunday Monday ... Friday Saturday
Year YY 70 71 ... 29 30
YYYY 1970 1971 ... 2029 2030
Hour H 0 1 ... 22 23
HH 00 01 ... 22 23
h 1 2 ... 11 12
hh 01 02 ... 11 12
Minute m 0 1 ... 58 59
mm 00 01 ... 58 59
Second s 0 1 ... 58 59
ss 00 01 ... 58 59
AM/PM A AM PM
a am pm
import {format} from '@shopify/dates';

const date = new Date(2021, 0, 14, 13, 2, 3);
const dateStr = format(date, 'YYYY-MM-DD h:mm:ss A'); // 2021-01-14 1:02:03 PM

const date2 = new Date(Date.UTC(2021, 1, 1));
const dateStr2 = format(date, 'M/D/YY', 'UTC', 'en-US'); // 1/1/21

formatDate

Takes in a date object and two additional parameters, the locale and an optional options object. Returns a new date string with the applied locale and options.

import {formatDate} from '@shopify/dates';

const date = new Date('2020-02-18Z14:00');
const locales = 'en';
const options = {
  timeZone: 'America/New_York',
  hour: 'numeric',
};

const newDate = formatDate(date, locales, options); // 9 AM

getDateTimeParts

Takes in a date object and an optional time zone string parameter. Returns an object with functions to get the year, month, day, weekday, hour, minute and second of the provided date.

import {getDateTimeParts} from '@shopify/dates';

const date = new Date('2018-06-01Z14:00');
const timeZone = 'Australia/Perth';

const dateTimeParts = getDateTimeParts(date, timeZone);

const year = dateTimeParts.year();
const month = dateTimeParts.month();
const day = dateTimeParts.day();
const weekday = dateTimeParts.weekday();
const hour = dateTimeParts.hour();
const minute = dateTimeParts.minute();
const second = dateTimeParts.second();

getTimeZoneOffset

Takes in a date object and two optional time zone string parameters. Returns a number representing the offset between the two provided time zones in minutes.

import {getTimeZoneOffset} from '@shopify/dates';

const date = new Date('2018-06-01Z14:00');
const timeZone1 = 'America/Toronto';
const timeZone2 = 'Australia/Perth';

const timeZoneOffset = getTimeZoneOffset(date, timeZone1, timeZone2);

isFutureDate

Takes in a date object and an optional now date object to compare against (defaulting to a new date object). Returns a boolean indicating whether or not the first date is in the future.

import {isFutureDate} from '@shopify/dates';

const now = new Date('2018-01-01Z00:00');
const date = new Date('2018-01-02Z23:59');

const futureDay = isFutureDate(date, now);

isLessThanOneDayAgo

Takes in a date object and an optional "now" date object (that defaults to new Date()). Returns a boolean indicating whether or not the date is less than one day before the "now" date.
