Is a date in same week, month, year of another date in swift

Question

What is the best way to know if a date is in the same week (or year or month) as another, preferably with an extension, and solely using Swift?

As an example, in Objective-C I have

- (BOOL)isSameWeekAs:(NSDate *)date {     NSDateComponents *otherDay = [[NSCalendar currentCalendar] components:NSCalendarUnitEra | NSCalendarUnitYear | NSCalendarUnitMonth | NSCalendarUnitDay fromDate:self];     NSDateComponents *today = [[NSCalendar currentCalendar] components:NSCalendarUnitEra | NSCalendarUnitYear | NSCalendarUnitMonth | NSCalendarUnitDay fromDate:date];     return ([today weekOfYear]   == [otherDay weekOfYear] &&             [today year]         == [otherDay year] &&             [today era]          == [otherDay era]); } 

Please don't propose solutions bridging Date to NSDate

You can use calendar method isDate(equalTo:granularity:) to check it as follow:

Xcode 11 • Swift 5.1

extension Date {      func isEqual(to date: Date, toGranularity component: Calendar.Component, in calendar: Calendar = .current) -> Bool {         calendar.isDate(self, equalTo: date, toGranularity: component)     }      func isInSameYear(as date: Date) -> Bool { isEqual(to: date, toGranularity: .year) }     func isInSameMonth(as date: Date) -> Bool { isEqual(to: date, toGranularity: .month) }     func isInSameWeek(as date: Date) -> Bool { isEqual(to: date, toGranularity: .weekOfYear) }      func isInSameDay(as date: Date) -> Bool { Calendar.current.isDate(self, inSameDayAs: date) }      var isInThisYear:  Bool { isInSameYear(as: Date()) }     var isInThisMonth: Bool { isInSameMonth(as: Date()) }     var isInThisWeek:  Bool { isInSameWeek(as: Date()) }      var isInYesterday: Bool { Calendar.current.isDateInYesterday(self) }     var isInToday:     Bool { Calendar.current.isDateInToday(self) }     var isInTomorrow:  Bool { Calendar.current.isDateInTomorrow(self) }      var isInTheFuture: Bool { self > Date() }     var isInThePast:   Bool { self < Date() } }
