D8 - The next generation Date object for JavaScript

Description

D8 is a lightweight JavaScript library, that wraps JS's date object and extends it with lots of features that address common use cases when dealing with dates.

Usage

var d1 = new D8(); // var d1 = new Ø();
var d2 = D8.create('12/31/2011');

d1.format('mm/dd/yyyy');
// 07/28/2011

d2.isLeapYear();
// false

D8.isLeapYear(2012);
// true

d1.getCalendarWeek();
// 30

d1.timeBetween(d2);
// 13423729316

d1.timeBetween(d2, 'days');
// 155

d1.timeBetween(d2, 'days', false);
// 155.3661575810185

var d3 = d1.addHours(12);

d3.format('mm/dd/yyyy');
// 07/29/2011

var d4 = d3.tomorrow();
d4.format('mm/dd/yyyy');
// 07/30/2011

var dates = d1.getDatesOfCalendarWeek();
for(var i = 0; i < dates.length; i++) {
    dates[i].format('mm/dd/yyyy');
}
// 07/24/2011
// 07/25/2011
// 07/26/2011
// 07/27/2011
// 07/28/2011
// 07/29/2011
// 07/30/2011

var d5 = D8.getDateByWeekdayAndCalendarWeek(4, 30, 2011);
d5.format('mm/dd/yyyy');
