How to take a list of dates in moment.js weekday calculation?

I'm using Moment.js to calculate the different between 2 given dates. Specially my task is to calculate weekdays of the given date range and not calculate and weekend and also special given date like holidays.

Moment.JS

I found this nice library to do the calculation easily which is integrated with Moment.js : Weekday Calc with Moment Library

This is the code I used to get specific dates between a given date range.

moment().weekdayCalc({  
  rangeStart: '1 Apr 2015',  
  rangeEnd: '31 Mar 2016',  
  weekdays: [1,2,3,4,5],  
  exclusions: ['6 Apr 2015','7 Apr 2015'],
  inclusions: ['10 Apr 2015']
})

From this code, I get only a numeric output. ( Result is 260 )

Can I get a dates list in a JavaScript array like this :

["yyyy-mm-dd" , "yyyy-mm-dd" , "yyyy-mm-dd" , "yyyy-mm-dd" , ..... ]

You can easily achieve what you want with date-fns which I'd also encourage you to use instead of Moment for other reasons. I haven't tested the code below but I'm pretty sure it would be something along these lines.

const { eachDay, isWeekend, format } = require('date-fns');
var daysArray = eachDay(
     new Date(2014, 9, 6),
     new Date(2014, 9, 10)
);

var weekdaysArray = daysArray.filter(day => !isWeekend(day));
var formattedWeekdays = weekdaysArray.map(day => format(day, 'yyyy-mm-dd'));
