Having a few issues with simply adding a day to a few dates in an Appcelerator project using moment.js
All I want to do, is grab today's date and then display it in the DD format (01) and then get the next 6 days as well.
Here is what I'm trying:
var todayDate = moment();
var day1 = todayDate.format("DD");
var day2 = todayDate.add(1, 'days').format("DD");
var day3 = todayDate.add(2, 'days').format("DD");
var day4 = todayDate.add(3, 'days').format("DD");
var day5 = todayDate.add(4, 'days').format("DD");
var day6 = todayDate.add(5, 'days').format("DD");
var day7 = todayDate.add(6, 'days').format("DD");
But, the output I get is the following:
[INFO] : 31
[INFO] : 01
[INFO] : 03
[INFO] : 06
[INFO] : 10
[INFO] : 15
[INFO] : 21
It should read:
[INFO] : 31
[INFO] : 01
[INFO] : 02
[INFO] : 03
[INFO] : 04
[INFO] : 05
[INFO] : 06
What am I doing wrong?

You add days to the same variable :
say todayDate
is 31.
First line, you add 1 day to todayDate
, so it becomes 01.
Then you add 2 days to todayDate
(that is now "01") so it becomes 03
etc ...
Do this instead (depending on what you need of course) :
var day1 = moment().format("DD");
var day2 = moment().add(1, 'days').format("DD");
var day3 = moment().add(2, 'days').format("DD");
var day4 = moment().add(3, 'days').format("DD");
var day5 = moment().add(4, 'days').format("DD");
var day6 = moment().add(5, 'days').format("DD");
var day7 = moment().add(6, 'days').format("DD");
or just add 1
every time ;)
var todayDate = moment();
var day1 = todayDate.format("DD");
var day2 = todayDate.add(1, 'days').format("DD");
var day3 = todayDate.add(1, 'days').format("DD");
var day4 = todayDate.add(1, 'days').format("DD");
var day5 = todayDate.add(1, 'days').format("DD");
var day6 = todayDate.add(1, 'days').format("DD");
var day7 = todayDate.add(1, 'days').format("DD");
