Moment.js returns 1 as last day of month

I'm trying to get the last day of the month as an integer. So for the month december 31 should be returned.

moment().endOf('month').day()

This will, however, return 1 - even though 

moment().endOf('month').format('YYYY-MM-DD')

returns the correct date. Can someone explain why and how to get the actual day?

var lastDate = moment().endOf('month').format('DD')

which returns the day and you can parseInt this for making it as integer

moment().endOf('month').format('DD')

also

moment().endOf('month').date();

day() returns the day of the week, not the date

You want to use date() instead

As galchen said, day() returns the day of the week. To get the date, manipulate the string:

var lastDay = moment().endOf('month').format('YYYY-MM-DD').split('-')[2];

To get the day of the month, you have to use .date() instead. See the relevant part of the docs: http://momentjs.com/docs/#/get-set/date/
