Add days to a Date using JavaScript

Many times I have face this issue, and hope you too.. this is simple 3 line of code will help and fix this problem.

let days =7 ; // we are going to add 7 days to a date

let cdt = new Date('2021-01-10'); // your date value

let tdt = cdt.setTime(cdt.getTime() + (days * 24 * 60 * 60 * 1000)); // calculation for adding 7 days and adding to time

let targetDT = new Date(tdt).format("yyyy-MM-dd"); // converting back from time to date 

// Output for targetDT will be "2021-01-17"

// With function...

function addDays(theDate, days) {

    return new Date(theDate.getTime() + days*24*60*60*1000);

}

var newDate = addDays(new Date(), 5);

Hope this will help you...

JavaScript to get index from a JSON object with value

 In modern browsers you can use findIndex:

var students = [ {id: 100 }, {id: 200}, {id: 300}, {id: 400}, {id: 500} ]; var index = students.findIndex(std=> std.id === 200);

But this function is not supported by even not so old versions of a few browser as well as in IE (EDGE supports it). So below is a workaround using javascript: You can use either Array.forEach or Array.find or Array.filter

var students = [ {id: 100 }, {id: 200}, {id: 300}, {id: 400}, {id: 500} ]; var index = -1; var needle = 200; var filteredRes = students.find(function(item, i){ if(item.id === needle){ index = i; return i; } }); console.log(index, filteredRes); /*Result: 1 Object { id: 200 }*/

This method takes little more overhead as it loops through the whole object to search for the match. So, for lengthy JSON data, this method is not suggested(even though it gets the work done).
