how to use the issamemonth function from date-fns in javascript

To use the isSameMonth function from date-fns in JavaScript, the first step is to install the date-fns package using npm by running the following command:

index.tsx
npm install date-fns
21 chars
2 lines

Once the package is installed, we can import the function into our code using the following statement:

index.tsx
import { isSameMonth } from 'date-fns';
40 chars
2 lines

The isSameMonth function takes two date objects as parameters and returns a boolean indicating if they fall in the same month. Here's an example of how to use it:

index.tsx
const date1 = new Date(2021, 1, 1);
const date2 = new Date(2021, 0, 1);

if (isSameMonth(date1, date2)) {
  console.log('The two dates fall in the same month');
} else {
  console.log('The two dates do not fall in the same month');
}

9 lines

In this example, date1 represents February 1st, 2021 and date2 represents January 1st, 2021. Since these two dates do not fall in the same month, the output of the program would be:

index.tsx
The two dates do not fall in the same month
44 chars
2 lines

Note that the isSameMonth function only checks whether the dates fall in the same month and year. If you need to check whether two dates are exactly the same, including the time, you can use the isSameDay function from date-fns.
