How to transform a date into day of the week counting from 0 on Sunday with Moment.js?

I am currently using const weekday = moment().isoWeekday() to get which day of the week it is. It starts with Sunday as 0 and ends with Saturday as 6.

Now, I am getting a date in the following format, as a string: 06-07-2020

How could I use moment to find out which day of the week (in numbers as above, starting with Sunday as 0) this date is?

If the day function is returning NaN then it's not reading your date properly. Tell Moment what date format it should expect, before asking it what day it is:

moment("06-07-2020", "MM-DD-YYYY").day();

OR

moment("06-07-2020", "DD-MM-YYYY").day();

You may easily get the day of the week using the .day() function with momentjs.

const date = moment("06-07-2020","DD-MM-YYYY") //Today
let day_of_week = date.day()
console.log(day_of_week)
