Checking if two dates match with MomentJS

How to check if two dates are the same with the JavaScript libray MomentJS

2022-11-14

With MomentJS (JavaScript), you can check if two times are the same with the isSame method.

First, instantiate moment with the date you want to check:

const someDate = "2021-07-14";
const currMoment = moment(someDate);

Then use the isSame method:

const someDate = "2021-07-14";
const currMoment = moment(someDate);

const anotherDate = "2021-07-13";

const isSameDay = currMoment.isSame(anotherDate, "day") // false
const isSameMonth = currMoment.isSame(anotherDate, "month") // true

I use this heavily in my Dataview (Obsidian) queries for Obsidian.
