How to construct

Age constructor is exactly the same as Date's Cause age is determined by underlying date.

Ways to construct

1. Date string

   const age = new Age("1970-01-01 11:25:04");

2. Milliseconds since 1st of jan. 1970

   const age = new Age(19504000);

3. By passing a date object

   const age = new Age(new Date("1970-01-01 11:25:04"));

4. By passing each date part separately

   const age = new Age(
     1970, // year
     0, // month (january)
     0, // Optional: day of the mons
     0, // Optional: hours
     0, // Optional: minutes
     0, // Optional: seconds
     0 // Optional: milliseconds
   );

Properties

1. value

   console.log(age.value); // 52

2. dateOfBirth

   console.log(age.dateOfBirth.toISOString()); // "1970-01-01T08:25:04.000Z"

3. dayOfBirth

   console.log(age.dateOfBirth.toISOString()); // "1970-01-01T00:00:00.000Z"

4. isBirthday(date?)

   console.log(age.isBirthday(/* default: now */)); // false
   console.log(age.isBirthday("2021-01-01")); // true
   console.log(age.isBirthday("2021-01-02")); // false

Serialization

Date object serializes as a number

console.log(age.value); // 52
console.log(age.valueOf); // 52
console.log(+age); // 52
console.log(String(age)); // 52
console.log(JSON.stringify(age)); // 52
