Get Previous, Current and Next Weeks Excluding Saturday and Sunday


I wants to display dates/days from Monday to Friday excluding Saturday/Sunday as mentioned in the image below.

enter image description here

My Scenario:

  1. When screen loads the current week should display.
  2. On previous button click (DisplayedWeek - 1)
  3. On Next button click (DisplayedWeek + 1).

My Work,

After some research this is what i have tried.

        let calendar = Calendar.current

        let currentDate = calendar.startOfDay(for: Date())

        /* value =  0 for current,
           value =  1 for next,
           value = -1 for previous week.

        */
        let nextWeek:Date =  calendar.date(byAdding: .weekOfMonth, value: 1, to: currentDate)! as Date

        let dayOfWeek = calendar.component(.weekday, from: nextWeek)
        let weekdays = calendar.range(of: .weekday, in: .weekOfYear, for: nextWeek)!

        let days = (weekdays.lowerBound ..< weekdays.upperBound).flatMap {

            calendar.date(byAdding: .day, value: $0 - dayOfWeek, to: nextWeek)

        }.filter { !calendar.isDateInWeekend($0) }

        // Week Days from monday to friday
        let formatter = DateFormatter()
        formatter.dateFormat = "yyyy-MM-dd"

        for date in days {
            print(formatter.string(from: date))
        }

In my case if the day is Saturday or Sunday it should display next week but it is displaying the same week.


Solution

  • You can get the current week monday's date, and just add n days to it:

    Swift 4.1 • Xcode 9.3 or later

    extension Calendar {
        static let iso8601 = Calendar(identifier: .iso8601)
    }
    extension Date {
        var cureentWeekMonday: Date {
            return Calendar.iso8601.date(from: Calendar.iso8601.dateComponents([.yearForWeekOfYear, .weekOfYear], from: self))!
        }
        var currentWeekdays: [Date] {
            return (0...4).compactMap{ Calendar.iso8601.date(byAdding: DateComponents(day: $0), to: cureentWeekMonday) } // for Swift versions earlier than 4.1 use flatMap instead
        }
    }
    

    let currentWeekdays = Date().currentWeekdays
    print(currentWeekdays)  // ["Jul 17, 2017, 12:00 AM", "Jul 18, 2017, 12:00 AM", "Jul 19, 2017, 12:00 AM", "Jul 20, 2017, 12:00 AM", "Jul 21, 2017, 12:00 AM"]
