Show week number with Javascript?

I have the following code that is used to show the name of the current day, followed by a set phrase.

<script type="text/javascript"> 
    <!-- 
    // Array of day names
    var dayNames = new Array(
    "It's Sunday, the weekend is nearly over",
    "Yay! Another Monday",
     "Hello Tuesday, at least you're not Monday",
     "It's Wednesday. Halfway through the week already",
     "It's Thursday.",
     "It's Friday - Hurray for the weekend",
    "Saturday Night Fever");
    var now = new Date();
    document.write(dayNames[now.getDay()] + ".");
     // -->
</script>

What I would like to do is have the current week number in brackets after the phrase. I have found the following code:

Date.prototype.getWeek = function() {
    var onejan = new Date(this.getFullYear(),0,1);
    return Math.ceil((((this - onejan) / 86400000) + onejan.getDay()+1)/7);
} 

Which was taken from http://javascript.about.com/library/blweekyear.htm but I have no idea how to add it to existing javascript code.

I'd like to add another answer. It works for all dates regardless of timezone, does not use any loops or DOM objects and emits correct (but zero-based) ISO 8601 week numbers (i.e. week with first Thursday of the year is week 0).

/**
 * Gets the ISO 8601 week number (zero-based) using local time.
 * @param {Date} date A `Date` object.
 */
function getISOWeek(date) {
    // get the week's Thursday (over/underflow in date parameter carries over)
    let thursday = new Date(
        date.getFullYear(),
        date.getMonth(),
        date.getDate() - (date.getDay() + 6) % 7 + 3 // Sunday is 0
    );
    /*
        Get January 1 of that Thursday's year. There is no need to
        find the first Thursday of the year since we round down the
        difference in weeks in the next step.
    */
    let janFirst = new Date(thursday.getFullYear(), 0, 1);
    /*
        The week number is the number of full weeks between `thursday`
        and `janFirst`. Both dates were created in local time, so to
        circumvent DST problems, use equivalent UTC dates (same year,
        month & date but at 00:00:00 in UTC).
    */
    return Math.floor(
        (
            thursday.getTime() - thursday.getTimezoneOffset() * 60000
            - janFirst.getTime() + janFirst.getTimezoneOffset() * 60000
        ) / 604800000 // milliseconds per week
    );
}

Tested special cases:

/* these dates belong to a week of the previous/next year */
getISOWeek(new Date(2023, 0, 1)) // -> 51
getISOWeek(new Date(2024, 11, 30)) // -> 0

/*
    Special cases in timezones with DST when year starts on a Thursday
    (e.g. Europe/Berlin in 2026, with DST transition on March 29).
*/
getISOWeek(new Date(2026, 2, 29)) // -> 12
getISOWeek(new Date(2026, 2, 30)) // -> 13

In browsers that support the week input type, the following function should work:

function isoWeek(date) {
  const input = document.createElement('input');
  input.type = 'week';
  input.valueAsDate = date;
  return input.value;
};

Cf.

>>> isoWeek(new Date("2022-01-01"))
'2021-W52'
>>> isoWeek(new Date("2022-01-03"))
'2022-W01'
>>> isoWeek(new Date("2023-12-14"))
'2023-W50'
>>> isoWeek(new Date("2024-01-01"))
'2024-W01'

It looks like this function I found at weeknumber.net is pretty accurate and easy to use.

// This script is released to the public domain and may be used, modified and
// distributed without restrictions. Attribution not necessary but appreciated.
// Source: http://weeknumber.net/how-to/javascript 

// Returns the ISO week of the date.
Date.prototype.getWeek = function() {
  let date = new Date(this.getTime());
  date.setHours(0, 0, 0, 0);
  // Thursday in current week decides the year.
  date.setDate(date.getDate() + 3 - (date.getDay() + 6) % 7);
  // January 4 is always in week 1.
  let week1 = new Date(date.getFullYear(), 0, 4);
  // Adjust to Thursday in week 1 and count number of weeks from date to week1.
  return 1 + Math.round(((date.getTime() - week1.getTime()) / 86400000 - 3 + (week1.getDay() + 6) % 7) / 7);
}

If you're lucky like me and need to find the week number of the month a little adjust will do it:

// Returns the week in the month of the date.
Date.prototype.getWeekOfMonth = function() {
  let date = new Date(this.getTime());
  date.setHours(0, 0, 0, 0);
  // Thursday in current week decides the year.
  date.setDate(date.getDate() + 3 - (date.getDay() + 6) % 7);
  // January 4 is always in week 1.
  let week1 = new Date(date.getFullYear(), date.getMonth(), 4);
  // Adjust to Thursday in week 1 and count number of weeks from date to week1.
  return 1 + Math.round(((date.getTime() - week1.getTime()) / 86400000 - 3 + (week1.getDay() + 6) % 7) / 7);
}

I've tried using code from all of the answers above, and all return week #52 for the first of January. So I decided to write my own, which calculates the week number correctly. Week numeration starts from 0

Maybe it's a bad taste to use a loop, or the result can be cached somewhere to prevent repeating the same calculations if the function is called often enough. Well, I have made this for myself, and it does what I need it to do.

    Date.prototype.getWeek = function() {
       // debugger
        let msWeek = 604800000;                                     // Week in milliseconds
        let msDay = 86400000;                                       // Day in milliseconds
        let year = this.getFullYear();                              // Get the year
        //let month = this.getMonth();                                // Month
        let oneDate = new Date(year, 0, 1);                         // Create a new date based on THIS year
        let temp = oneDate.getDay();                                // Ordinal of the first day
        let getFirstDay = (temp === 0) ? 6 : temp - 1;              // Ordinal of the first day of the current month (0-MO, 6-SU)
        let countWeek  = 0;
        // Test to confirm week
        oneDate = new Date(oneDate.getTime() + msDay*(7 - getFirstDay));
        if(oneDate.getTime() > this.getTime()){
            return  countWeek;
        }
        // Increment loop
        while(true){
            oneDate = new Date(oneDate.getTime() + msWeek);                 // Add a week and check
            if(oneDate.getTime() > this.getTime()) break;
            countWeek++;
        }
        return countWeek + 1;
    }

    let s1 = new Date('2022-01-01'); console.log(s1.getWeek());
    let s2 = new Date('2023-01-01'); console.log(s2.getWeek());
    let s22 = new Date('2023-01-02'); console.log(s22.getWeek());
    let s3 = new Date('2024-01-01'); console.log(s3.getWeek());
    let s4 = new Date('2025-01-01'); console.log(s4.getWeek());
    let s5 = new Date('2022-02-28'); console.log(s5.getWeek());
    let s6 = new Date('2022-12-31'); console.log(s6.getWeek());
    let s7 = new Date('2024-12-31'); console.log(s7.getWeek());

Luxon is an other alternative. Luxon date objects have a weekNumber property:

let week = luxon.DateTime.fromString("2022-04-01", "yyyy-MM-dd").weekNumber;
console.log(week);
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/luxon/3.0.1/luxon.min.js"></script>

In case you already use jQuery-UI (specifically datepicker):

Date.prototype.getWeek = function () { return $.datepicker.iso8601Week(this); }

Usage:

var myDate = new Date();
myDate.getWeek();

More here: UI/Datepicker/iso8601Week

I realize this isn't a general solution as it incurs a dependency. However, considering the popularity of jQuery-UI this might just be a simple fit for someone - as it was for me.


If you don't use jQuery-UI and have no intention of adding the dependency. You could just copy their iso8601Week() implementation since it is written in pure JavaScript without complex dependencies:

// Determine the week of the year (local timezone) based on the ISO 8601 definition.
Date.prototype.iso8601Week = function () {
  // Create a copy of the current date, we don't want to mutate the original
  const date = new Date(this.getTime());

  // Find Thursday of this week starting on Monday
  date.setDate(date.getDate() + 4 - (date.getDay() || 7));
  const thursday = date.getTime();

  // Find January 1st
  date.setMonth(0); // January
  date.setDate(1);  // 1st
  const jan1st = date.getTime();

  // Round the amount of days to compensate for daylight saving time
  const days = Math.round((thursday - jan1st) / 86400000); // 1 day = 86400000 ms
  return Math.floor(days / 7) + 1;
};

console.log(new Date().iso8601Week());
console.log(new Date("2020-01-01T00:00").iso8601Week());
console.log(new Date("2021-01-01T00:00").iso8601Week());
console.log(new Date("2022-01-01T00:00").iso8601Week());
console.log(new Date("2023-12-31T00:00").iso8601Week());
console.log(new Date("2024-12-31T00:00").iso8601Week());

I was coding in the dark (a challenge) and couldn't lookup, bring in any dependencies or test my code.

I forgot what round up was called (Math.celi) So I wanted to be extra sure i got it right and came up with this code instead.

var elm = document.createElement('input')
elm.type = 'week'
elm.valueAsDate = new Date()
var week = elm.value.split('W').pop()

console.log(week)
Just a proof of concept of how you can get the week in any other way

But still i recommend any other solution that isn't required by the DOM.

Martin Schillinger's version seems to be the strictly correct one.

Since I knew I only needed it to work correctly on business week days, I went with this simpler form, based on something I found online, don't remember where:

ISOWeekday = (0 == InputDate.getDay()) ? 7 : InputDate.getDay();
ISOCalendarWeek = Math.floor( ( ((InputDate.getTime() - (new Date(InputDate.getFullYear(),0,1)).getTime()) / 86400000) - ISOWeekday + 10) / 7 );

It fails in early January on days that belong to the previous year's last week (it produces CW = 0 in those cases) but is correct for everything else.

You could find this fiddle useful. Just finished. https://jsfiddle.net/dnviti/ogpt920w/ Code below also:

It's pure JS. There are a bunch of date functions inside that allow you to convert date into week number and viceversa :)

If you want something that works and is future-proof, use a library like MomentJS.

moment(date).week();
moment(date).isoWeek()

If you already use Angular, then you could profit $filter('date').

For example:

var myDate = new Date();
var myWeek = $filter('date')(myDate, 'ww');

Some of the code I see in here fails with years like 2016, in which week 53 jumps to week 2.

Here is a revised and working version:

Date.prototype.getWeek = function() { 

  // Create a copy of this date object  
  var target  = new Date(this.valueOf());  

  // ISO week date weeks start on monday, so correct the day number  
  var dayNr   = (this.getDay() + 6) % 7;  

  // Set the target to the thursday of this week so the  
  // target date is in the right year  
  target.setDate(target.getDate() - dayNr + 3);  

  // ISO 8601 states that week 1 is the week with january 4th in it  
  var jan4    = new Date(target.getFullYear(), 0, 4);  

  // Number of days between target date and january 4th  
  var dayDiff = (target - jan4) / 86400000;    

  if(new Date(target.getFullYear(), 0, 1).getDay() < 5) {
    // Calculate week number: Week 1 (january 4th) plus the    
    // number of weeks between target date and january 4th    
    return 1 + Math.ceil(dayDiff / 7);    
  }
  else {  // jan 4th is on the next week (so next week is week 1)
    return Math.ceil(dayDiff / 7); 
  }
};

All the proposed approaches may give wrong results because they don’t take into account summer/winter time changes. Rather than calculating the number of days between two dates using the constant of 86’400’000 milliseconds, it is better to use an approach like the following one:

getDaysDiff = function (dateObject0, dateObject1) {
    if (dateObject0 >= dateObject1) return 0;
    var d = new Date(dateObject0.getTime());
    var nd = 0;
    while (d <= dateObject1) {
        d.setDate(d.getDate() + 1);
        nd++;
    }
    return nd-1;
};

Simply add it to your current code, then call (new Date()).getWeek()

<script>
    Date.prototype.getWeek = function() {
        var onejan = new Date(this.getFullYear(), 0, 1);
        return Math.ceil((((this - onejan) / 86400000) + onejan.getDay() + 1) / 7);
    }

    var weekNumber = (new Date()).getWeek();

    var dayNames = ['Sunday', 'Monday', 'Tuesday', 'Wednesday', 'Thursday', 'Friday', 'Saturday'];
    var now = new Date();
    document.write(dayNames[now.getDay()] + " (" + weekNumber + ").");
</script>

Consider using my implementation of "Date.prototype.getWeek", think is more accurate than the others i have seen here :)

Date.prototype.getWeek = function(){
    // We have to compare against the first monday of the year not the 01/01
    // 60*60*24*1000 = 86400000
    // 'onejan_next_monday_time' reffers to the miliseconds of the next monday after 01/01

    var day_miliseconds = 86400000,
        onejan = new Date(this.getFullYear(),0,1,0,0,0),
        onejan_day = (onejan.getDay()==0) ? 7 : onejan.getDay(),
        days_for_next_monday = (8-onejan_day),
        onejan_next_monday_time = onejan.getTime() + (days_for_next_monday * day_miliseconds),
        // If one jan is not a monday, get the first monday of the year
        first_monday_year_time = (onejan_day>1) ? onejan_next_monday_time : onejan.getTime(),
        this_date = new Date(this.getFullYear(), this.getMonth(),this.getDate(),0,0,0),// This at 00:00:00
        this_time = this_date.getTime(),
        days_from_first_monday = Math.round(((this_time - first_monday_year_time) / day_miliseconds));

    var first_monday_year = new Date(first_monday_year_time);

    // We add 1 to "days_from_first_monday" because if "days_from_first_monday" is *7,
    // then 7/7 = 1, and as we are 7 days from first monday,
    // we should be in week number 2 instead of week number 1 (7/7=1)
    // We consider week number as 52 when "days_from_first_monday" is lower than 0,
    // that means the actual week started before the first monday so that means we are on the firsts
    // days of the year (ex: we are on Friday 01/01, then "days_from_first_monday"=-3,
    // so friday 01/01 is part of week number 52 from past year)
    // "days_from_first_monday<=364" because (364+1)/7 == 52, if we are on day 365, then (365+1)/7 >= 52 (Math.ceil(366/7)=53) and thats wrong

    return (days_from_first_monday>=0 && days_from_first_monday<364) ? Math.ceil((days_from_first_monday+1)/7) : 52;
}

By adding the snippet you extend the Date object.

Date.prototype.getWeek = function() {
    var onejan = new Date(this.getFullYear(),0,1);
    return Math.ceil((((this - onejan) / 86400000) + onejan.getDay()+1)/7);
}

If you want to use this in multiple pages you can add this to a seperate js file which must be loaded first before your other scripts executes. With other scripts I mean the scripts which uses the getWeek() method.

With that code you can simply;

document.write(dayNames[now.getDay()] + " (" + now.getWeek() + ").");

(You will need to paste the getWeek function above your current script)
