A Hijri (Based on Umm al-Qura calculations) calendar system plugin for moment.js.
Hijri is the Islamic lunar calendar used by Muslims everywhere to determine the proper days on which to observe the annual fasting, to attend Hajj, and to celebrate other Islamic holidays and festivals more info at wiki.
This plugin adds Hijri calendar support to momentjs library.
Calendar conversion is based on the Umm al-Qura calculations.
Because of Using 'h' specifier might cause overlap with hour's specifier.
The specifier has been changed from h to i as a prefix. So for example in the previous version to get the four digit year
we use hYYYY. In version 2.0 or above you should replace it with iYYYY and so on.
Like momentjs, moment-hijri works in browser and in Node.js.
npm install moment-hijrivar moment = require('moment-hijri');
moment().format('iYYYY/iM/iD');<script src="moment.js"></script>
<script src="moment-hijri.js"></script>
<script>
moment().format('iYYYY/iM/iD');
</script>require.config({
paths: {
"moment": "path/to/moment",
"moment-hijri": "path/to/moment-hijri"
}
});
define(["moment-hijri"], function (moment) {
moment().format('iYYYY/iM/iD');
});This plugin tries to mimic momentjs api. Basically, when you want to format or parse a string, just add a i to the format token like 'iYYYY' or 'iM'. For example:
m = moment('1410/8/28', 'iYYYY/iM/iD'); // Parse a Hijri date.
m.format('iYYYY/iM/iD [is] YYYY/M/D'); // 1410/8/28 is 1990/3/25
m.iYear(); // 1410
m.iMonth(); // 7
m.iDate(); // 28
m.iDayOfYear(); // 236
m.iWeek(); // 35
m.iWeekYear(); // 1410
m.add(1, 'iYear');
m.add(2, 'iMonth');
m.format('iYYYY/iM/iD'); // 1411/10/28
m.iMonth(11);
m.startOf('iMonth');
m.format('iYYYY/iM/iD'); // 1411/12/1
m.iYear(1392);
m.startOf('iYear');
m.format('iYYYY/iM/iD'); // 1420/1/1
moment('1436/1/30', 'iYYYY/iMM/iDD').isValid(); // false (This month is only 29 days).
moment('1436/2/30', 'iYYYY/iMM/iDD').isValid(); // true (This month is 30 days).
moment('1436/2/6 16:40', 'iYYYY/iM/iD HH:mm').format('YYYY-M-D HH:mm:ss'); // 2014-11-28 16:40:00
moment('2014-11-28 16:40:00', 'YYYY-M-D HH:mm:ss').endOf('iMonth').format('iYYYY/iM/iD HH:mm:ss'); // 1436/2/30 23:59:59
// Complex parse:
moment('1990 5 25', 'YYYY iM D').format('YYYY/MM/DD'); // 1990/03/25To use the Arabic locale you need to do as follow:
- Load moment-with-locales.
- Set the global or local locale to
ar-SAsee here. - use it normally 👍
Here is example:
<!-- 1- Load the moment-with-locales -->
<script src="http://momentjs.com/downloads/moment-with-locales.min.js"></script>
<script src="https://raw.githubusercontent.com/xsoh/moment-hijri/master/moment-hijri.js"></script>
<script>
moment.locale('ar-SA');// 2- Set the global locale to `ar-SA`
m = moment();
m.format('iYYYY/iM/iDهـ الموافق YYYY/M/Dم'); //3- use it normally
//١٤٣٧/٨/١٧هـ الموافق ٢٠١٦/٥/٢٤م
