How to show only date without time Js

February 27, 2023

So I have this code that gives me the dates between date A and date B, but it also shows the time which I dont want.

This is my current code that works:

function getDatesInRange(startDate, endDate) {
  const date = new Date(startDate.getTime());
  const dates = [];
  while (date <= endDate) {
    dates.push(new Date(date));
    date.setDate(date.getDate() + 1);
  }
  return dates;
}

const d1 = new Date("2022-01-18");
const d2 = new Date("2022-01-24");

console.log(getDatesInRange(d1, d2));

I saw online even here that some say to use

return dates.split(" ")[0];

But it still returns the time.

How can I return only the date (year, month, day) and not time?

>Solution :

You can use https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/Date/toDateString.

function getDatesInRange(startDate, endDate) {
  const date = new Date(startDate.getTime());

  const dates = [];

  while (date <= endDate) {
    dates.push(new Date(date));
    date.setDate(date.getDate() + 1);
  }

  return dates;
}

const d1 = new Date('2022-01-18');
const d2 = new Date('2022-01-24');

alert(getDatesInRange(d1, d2).map(date => date.toDateString()));
