I am trying to get the first day of current week (say this week, i should be getting 2015-09-13).
However i cannot find the appropriate function in Apple's provided source code.
code should be something like this...
print(getFirstDay(40)) // Should print 27
func getFirstDay(weekNumber:Int)->Int?{
let formatter = NSDateFormatter()
formatter.dateFormat = "yyyy-MM-dd"
if let todayDate = formatter.dateFromString(weekNumber) {
let myCalendar = NSCalendar(calendarIdentifier: NSCalendarIdentifierGregorian)!
let myComponents = myCalendar.dateFromComponents(.weekOfYear)
let date = myComponents.date
return date
} else {
return nil
}
}
However above code doesn't work (obviously) but it is something i was thinking of should be in the right direction.
How can i achieve this?
/* Not important */ I am trying to create a sort-of calendar app in a table View which is separated by Sections of 4 weeks, i want to know which date a new week starts at.
func getFirstDay(weekNumber:Int)->String?{
let Calendar = NSCalendar(calendarIdentifier: NSCalendarIdentifierGregorian)!
let dayComponent = NSDateComponents()
dayComponent.weekOfYear = weekNumber
dayComponent.weekday = 1
dayComponent.year = 2015
var date = Calendar.dateFromComponents(dayComponent)
if(weekNumber == 1 && Calendar.components(.Month, fromDate: date!).month != 1){
print(Calendar.components(.Month, fromDate: date!).month)
dayComponent.year = 2014
date = Calendar.dateFromComponents(dayComponent)
}
let dateFormatter = NSDateFormatter()
dateFormatter.dateFormat = "dd-MM-yyyy"
return String(dateFormatter.stringFromDate(date!))
}
Very rough code what i did so far.
It works for finding the first day of the week ;)!
