Moment js get first and last day of current month

Question

In case anyone missed the comments on the original question, you can use built-in methods (works as of Moment 1.7):

const startOfMonth = moment().startOf('month').format('YYYY-MM-DD hh:mm');
const endOfMonth   = moment().endOf('month').format('YYYY-MM-DD hh:mm');

There would be another way to do this:

var begin = moment().format("YYYY-MM-01");
var end = moment().format("YYYY-MM-") + moment().daysInMonth();

You can do this without moment.js

A way to do this in native Javascript code :

var date = new Date(), y = date.getFullYear(), m = date.getMonth();
var firstDay = new Date(y, m, 1);
var lastDay = new Date(y, m + 1, 0);

firstDay = moment(firstDay).format(yourFormat);
lastDay = moment(lastDay).format(yourFormat);

moment startOf() and endOf() is the answer you are searching for.. For Example:-

moment().startOf('year');    // set to January 1st, 12:00 am this year
moment().startOf('month');   // set to the first of this month, 12:00 am
moment().startOf('week');    // set to the first day of this week, 12:00 am
moment().startOf('day');     // set to 12:00 am today
