Overview

Provides some date utilities for developing Logseq plugins, in particular to cater to handling multiple user-defined date formats.

Installation

With npm:

npm i logseq-dateutils

Import (you may also import only selective functions for your needs):

import { getDateForPage, getDateForPageWithoutBrackets, getDayInText, getScheduledDeadlineDateDay, getScheduledDeadlineDateDayTime } from 'logseq-dateutils';

Usage

Below is an elaboration of the methods available:

getDateForPage or getDateForPageWithoutBrackets

Returns the specified date based on the user's preferred date format. Accepts 2 arguments. getDateForPage returns the date with brackets ([[date]]) while getDateForPageWithoutBrackets returns the date without the brackets.

import { getDateForPage, getDateForPageWithoutBrackets, getDayInText, getScheduledDeadlineDate } from 'logseq-dateutils';

const preferredDateFormat = 'yyyy/MM/dd';
const today = new Date();

const todayDateInUserFormat = getDateForPage(today, preferredDateFormat);
console.log(todayDateInUserFormat);

getDayInText

Returns the day, based on the specified date.

const today = new Date();

const todayDay = getDayInText(today);

getScheduledDeadlineDateDay

Returns the date format that is needed (without the time) if your plugin requires creation of SCHEDULED or DEADLINE items.

const today = new Date();

await logseq.Editor.updateBlock(uuid, `A quick brown fox
SCHEDULED: <getScheduledDeadlineFormat(today)>`)

getScheduledDeadlineDateDayTime

Returns the date format that is needed (including the time) if your plugin requires creation of SCHEDULED or DEADLINE items.

const today = new Date();

await logseq.Editor.updateBlock(uuid, `A quick brown fox
DEADLINE: <getScheduledDeadlineDateDayTime(today)>`)
