How to determine if date is weekend in JavaScript?
As we know the value 0 is for day Sunday and 6 for Saturday. First of all, you need to get day with the help of getDay().
Let’s set a date −
var givenDate=new Date("2020-07-18");Now, we will get the day −
var currentDay = givenDate.getDay();
Following is the code to determine if date is weekend −
Example
var givenDate=new Date("2020-07-18");
var currentDay = givenDate.getDay();
var dateIsInWeekend = (currentDay === 6) || (currentDay === 0);
if(dateIsInWeekend==true){
console.log("The given date "+givenDate+" is a Weekend");
} else {
console.log("The given date " +givenDate+"is a not a Weekend");
}To run the above program, you need to use the following command −
node fileName.js.
