I'm trying to get the start and end dates of the current month in dd/MM/yyyy
format. I tried using extension as answered in this SO Question.But it seems like it's not what I want(the format is different and also it's giving me last month's last date and current month last but one date ). Can some one help me.
Extension Class:
extension Date {
func startOfMonth() -> Date? {
let comp: DateComponents = Calendar.current.dateComponents([.year, .month, .hour], from: Calendar.current.startOfDay(for: self))
return Calendar.current.date(from: comp)!
}
func endOfMonth() -> Date? {
var comp: DateComponents = Calendar.current.dateComponents([.month, .day, .hour], from: Calendar.current.startOfDay(for: self))
comp.month = 1
comp.day = -1
return Calendar.current.date(byAdding: comp, to: self.startOfMonth()!)
}
}
My Struct:
struct Constants{
// keys required for making a Login call (POST Method)
struct LoginKeys {
.....
}
struct RankingKeys {
static let DateFrom = String(describing: Date().startOfMonth()) //giving me 2016-11-30 16:00:00 +0000
static let DateTo = String(describing: Date().endOfMonth())
//2016-12-30 16:00:00 +0000
}
}
Expected Result:
DateFrom = "01/12/2016"
DateTo = "31/12/2016"
day = -1 return Calendar. current. date(byAdding: comp, to: self. startOfMonth()!) } }
var lastMonthDate = Calendar. current. date(byAdding: . month, value: -1, to: date) calendar.
You should write this simple code:
let dateFormatter = DateFormatter()
let date = Date()
dateFormatter.dateFormat = "dd-MM-yyyy"
For start Date:
let comp: DateComponents = Calendar.current.dateComponents([.year, .month], from: date)
let startOfMonth = Calendar.current.date(from: comp)!
print(dateFormatter.string(from: startOfMonth))
For end Date:
var comps2 = DateComponents()
comps2.month = 1
comps2.day = -1
let endOfMonth = Calendar.current.date(byAdding: comps2, to: startOfMonth)
print(dateFormatter.string(from: endOfMonth!))
