4-2- convert(calendar:Calendar, locale?:Locale)

If you use the convert method without argument, the date will be converted to Gregorian calendar.

The second argument (Locale) is optional.

import DateObject from "react-date-object";
import gregorian from "react-date-object/calendars/gregorian";
import persian from "react-date-object/calendars/persian";
import arabic from "react-date-object/calendars/arabic";
import indian from "react-date-object/calendars/indian";

var date = new DateObject();

console.log(date.format()); //2020/10/31

date.convert(persian);
console.log(date.format()); //1399/08/10

date.convert(arabic);
console.log(date.format()); //1442/03/14

date.convert(indian);
console.log(date.format()); //1942/08/09

date.convert(gregorian); //or date.convert()
console.log(date.format()); //2020/10/31

4-3- format(token:String)

default format is YYYY/MM/DD. to see all format types click here

import DateObject from "react-date-object";

var date = new DateObject();

consoel.log(date.format()); //2020/10/31
consoel.log(date.format("MM/DD/YYYY")); //10/31/2020
consoel.log(date.format("MMM/DD/YYYY HH:mm:ss")); //Oct/31/2020 18:17:28
consoel.log(date.format("dddd DD MMMM YYYY, hh:mm:ss A")); //Saturday 31 October 2020, 06:19:18 PM
consoel.log(date.format("ddd DD MMM YYYY, hh:mm a")); //Sat 31 Oct 2020, 06:20 pm

formatting with ignore list:

import DateObject from "react-date-object";

var date = new DateObject();

console.log(
  date.format("hours:HH minutes:mm seconds:ss", ["hours", "minutes", "seconds"])
); //hours:12 minutes:22 seconds:40

console.log(date.format("it's HH o'clock", ["it's", "o'clock"])); //it's 12 o'clock

console.log(
  date.format(`DD MMMM at hh:mm ${date.hour >= 12 ? "Afternoon" : "Morning"}`, [
    "at",
    "Afternoon",
    "Morning",
  ])
); //11 November at 12:22 Afternoon

console.log(date.format()); //1942/08/05

4-5- get and set

import DateObject from "react-date-object";

var date = new DateObject();

console.log(date.format()); //2020/08/21

date.year += 2;
date.month += 2;
date.day += 2;

date.leaps; //array [4,   8,  12,  16,  20,...]

date.calendar.name; //gregorian

4-6- parse(date:String)

Remember that parsing date is based on the format you set

import DateObject from "react-date-object";
import persian from "react-date-object/calendars/persian";
import persian_en from "react-date-object/locales/persian_en";

var date = new DateObject();

date._format = "dddd DD MMMM YYYY";

date.parse("Monday 24 August 2020");
console.log(date.format("YYYY/MM/DD")); //2020/08/24

date.parse("Friday 07 August 2020");
console.log(date.format("YYYY-MM-DD")); //2020-08-07

date
  .setCalendar(persian)
  .setLocale(persian_en)
  .setFormat("YYYY/MM/DD")
  .parse("1399/06/03");
console.log(date.format()); //1399/06/03

date.setFormat("YYYY/MM/DD HH:mm").parse("1399/06/03 12:32");
console.log(date.format("dddd DD MMMM @ hh:mm a")); //Doshanbeh 03 Shahrivar @ 12:32 pm

4-7- getValue

import DateObject from "react-date-object";
import arabic_ar from "react-date-object/locales/arabic_ar.js";

var date = new DateObject({
  date: "1442/01/01",
  calendar: arabic,
  locale: arabic_ar,
});

console.log(date.getValue("M")); //1
console.log(date.format("M")); //١

console.log(typeof date.getValue("D")); //number
console.log(typeof date.format("D")); //string

console.log(Number(date.getValue("YYYY"))); //1442
