weekstart

NPM version

Library to get first day of week.

getWeekStartByRegion('MAC');   // 0

getWeekStartByLocale('arq');   // 6

The library is based on the following data from Unicode (especially from Common Locale Data Repository) and from ISO:

There are 2 variants of the library having identical API:

  • main - uses base mapping of language code to country code from langRegionMap.
  • full - uses full mapping of language code to country code from fullLangRegionMap.

langRegionMap contains only main language codes. It is data subset from fullLangRegionMap.

Installation

Node

npm install weekstart

Bower

bower install weekstart

AMD/UMD, <script>

Use dist/main.js or dist/min/main.js (minified version). Use dist/full.js or dist/min/full.js (minified version) when you need full locale data.

Usage

ECMAScript 6

import {getWeekStartByLocale, getWeekStartByRegion} from 'weekstart';

If you need full data:

import {getWeekStartByLocale, getWeekStartByRegion} from 'weekstart/full';

Node

const getWeekStartByLocale = require('weekstart').getWeekStartByLocale;
const getWeekStartByRegion = require('weekstart').getWeekStartByRegion;

If you need full data:

const getWeekStartByLocale = require('weekstart/full').getWeekStartByLocale;
const getWeekStartByRegion = require('weekstart/full').getWeekStartByRegion;

AMD/UMD

define(['path/to/dist/main.js'], function(weekstart) {
    const getWeekStartByLocale = weekstart.getWeekStartByLocale;
    const getWeekStartByRegion = weekstart.getWeekStartByRegion;
});

If you need full data:

define(['path/to/dist/full.js'], function(weekstart) {
    const getWeekStartByLocale = weekstart.getWeekStartByLocale;
    const getWeekStartByRegion = weekstart.getWeekStartByRegion;
});

Bower, <script>

<!-- Use bower_components/weekstart/dist/main.js and bower_components/weekstart/dist/full.js if the library was installed by Bower -->
<script type="text/javascript" src="path/to/dist/main.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
    // weekstart is available via weekstart field of window object
    const getWeekStartByLocale = weekstart.getWeekStartByLocale;
    const getWeekStartByRegion = weekstart.getWeekStartByRegion;
</script>

If you need full data use path/to/dist/full.js instead of path/to/dist/main.js.

Examples

getWeekStartByRegion('dj');   // 6
getWeekStartByRegion('No');   // 1
getWeekStartByRegion('CAN');   // 0
getWeekStartByRegion(462);   // 5

getWeekStartByLocale('Jam');   // 0
getWeekStartByLocale('Fa');   // 6
getWeekStartByLocale('vi');   // 1
getWeekStartByLocale('es_MX');   // 0
getWeekStartByLocale('az-Arab-IRN');   // 6

In the following examples results are given for the function from full.js. The same calls for the function from main.js will return 1.

getWeekStartByLocale('CCP');   // 0
getWeekStartByLocale('UZ-arab');   // 6
