从Moment.js中每月的第一天开始获取Day的名称

Question

I am trying to build a calendar in JS using Moment.js

I am trying to get the name of the first day of the month, or example ,

1.6.2018 is:"Friday"

I tried this but first date is becoming an object of the first day in month (), and I just don't know how to extract from this object the name of the day

{
    let date=;
    let firstDate;
    date=moment().format();
    console.log(date);
    firstDate=moment(date).startOf(`month`);
    console.log(firstDate)
    firstDate=moment(firstDate).date(1);
    console.log(firstDate);
}

maybe you have a better solution for me?

Answer 1

If you do NOT want to bother with moment, you can just do this:

 console.log("Default:", new Date(2018,5,1).toLocaleDateString(undefined, { weekday: 'long' }) ) console.log("English:", new Date(2018,5,1).toLocaleDateString("en-US", { weekday: 'long' }) ); console.log("Hebrew:", new Date(2018,5,1).toLocaleDateString("he-IL", { weekday: 'long' }) ) 

Answer 2

What about this to get the name of the first day of the current month:

moment().startOf('month').format('dddd');

Of course, this only gets you the first day for the current month, if you want to change the month, just call .startOf('month').format('dddd') on any other date/moment within the month you want.

Anyway, what you are looking for is .format('dddd') which will return the name of the day of a moment ;)
