@b08/ndate v1.0.6

@b08/ndate, seeded from @b08/library-seed, library type: dry

This package serves following purposes 1. Avoid timezone conversion. I.e. solution for common "-1 day" bug. Date is stored as 8-digit number, 20191010 for instance. I suggest to store it in databases as number. 2. Example on how to avoid "primitive obsession" anti-pattern. Function that receives a number will also get any other number, regardless of its meaning. Function receiving NDate object will give you compilation error for numbers and other arbitrary objects.

constructor and conversions

direct constructor, supposed to be used when data is received from database. And in tests

import { nDate } from "@b08/ndate"

const d = nDate(20191010);

converters from and to js Date

import { toNDate, toDate } from "@b08/ndate"

const ndate = toNDate(new Date);
const date = toDate(ndate);

comparison

earlier, later and equal - methods to indicate if first date is earlier than, later than or equals second date respectively

isNDate

return true if object is NDate
