calendarize
A tiny (202B) utility to generate calendar views.
This function (optionally) accepts a date in exchange for a calendar view of that date's month.
The output contains no labels! This is ideal for calendar generator because it allows the developer to easily customize their labels, including full i18n/internationalization support! (Demo)
Additionally, this module is delivered as:
- ES Module:
dist/calendarize.mjs
- CommonJS:
dist/calendarize.js
- UMD:
dist/calendarize.min.js
Install
$ npm install --save calendarize

API
calendarize(date?, offset?)
Returns: Array<Week>
An Array of Week
Arrays is returned.
Each Week
is an Array of 7 numbers, wherein each index is the Day
of the week and each value is the numerical date.
The index is forwarded from Date.getDay
, which means that index: 0 is Sunday.
Important: A value of zero (
0
) represents a date that exists beyond the current month view.
date
Type: string
| number
| Date
Default: new Date()
– aka, today
The date you want to process.
Important: Your
string|number
value will be cast to aDate
object, which means Node.js may apply incorrect timezone!
offset
Type: number
Default: 0
A positive or negative day offset to modify which day of the week the calendar should start.
This offset is relative to Sunday – so, by default, an offset of 0
will mean that your Weeks will start on Sundays.
Note: Some parts of the globe expect calendars to start on Sunday, Saturday, or Monday: see map
Example Offsets
- Monday:
1
- Tuesday:
2
- ...
- Friday:
5
or-2
- Saturday:
6
or-1
If you use offset: 1
, this means you want the Week
s to start on Monday. In turn, the 0th value of each Week
array will be Monday's date.
// The first week of Jan 2020:
// start = Sunday (default)
calendarize('Jan 01, 2020');
// => [[0, 0, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4], ...]
// (days: [S, M, T, W, T, F, S])
// start = Monday (offset: 1)
calendarize('Jan 01, 2020', 1);
// => [[0, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5], ...]
// (days: [M, T, W, T, F, S, S])
