Currently

Currently .full returns new Date() - with simplified extensions of .year, .month, .date, and .timeOfDay.

Notes

• normally, JavaScript's .getMonth() returns a zero-indexed integer (i.e. January = 0, February = 1, December = 11), whereas currently's .month returns the "regular" integer for simplicity's sake (January = 1, December = 12)
• currently is designed to go with the onezero package, which converts individual digits (0 - 9) into double digits (00 - 09)
  • install via npm install onezero --save

Usage

var now = require('currently');
// now.full, now.year, now.month, now.date, now.timeOfDay

<script>
if (now.year != 2012) {
  document.write('-', now.year); // ' - 2016'
}
</script>
</p>

Today's date

// print 'DD/MM/YYYY':
var zero = require('onezero');
document.write(
  zero(now.date) +'/'+ zero(now.month) +'/'+ now.year
);

Humanize greetings

if (now !== 'night' || now != 'noon') {
  'Good '+ now.timeOfDay; // morning / afternoon / evening
}

Roadmap

• .short('month') // = 'Apr'
• .short('day') // = 'Fri'
• .display('mm/dd/yy') // intelligent formatting
