How to add a day to a date in TypeScript [duplicate]

Question

I need to add 1 day to a date variable in TypeScript. May I know how can I add a day to a date field in TypeScript.

Answer 1

This is just regular JavaScript, no need for TypeScript.

yourDate = new Date(yourDate.getTime() + (1000 * 60 * 60 * 24));

1000 milliseconds in a second * 60 seconds in a minute * 60 minutes in an hour * 24 hours.

Additionally you could increment the date:

yourDate.setDate(yourDate.getDate() + 1);

The neat thing about setDate is that if your date is out-of-range for the month, it will still correctly update the date (January 32 -> February 1).

See more documentation on setDate on MDN.

Answer 2

 addDays(date: Date, days: number): Date {
        date.setDate(date.getDate() + days);
        return date;
    }

In your case days = 1
