Is there a way to iterate over specific month or week

Question

Is there a way, in go, to iterate over a specific month and get all time.Date objects from it?

For instance iterate over April will result in 04012016 until 04312016:

for _, dayInMonth := range date.April {
   // do stuff with dates returned
}

(Currently the above code will not work obviously).

Or if not part of the standard library is there a third party library that equivalent to moment.js?

There is no time.Date object defined in the standard library. Only time.Time object. There's also no way to range loop them, but looping them manually is quite simple:

// set the starting date (in any way you wish)
start, err := time.Parse("2006-1-2", "2016-4-1")
// handle error

// set d to starting date and keep adding 1 day to it as long as month doesn't change
for d := start; d.Month() == start.Month(); d = d.AddDate(0, 0, 1) {
    // do stuff with d
}
