[SOLVED] Persian Calendar Date

#1 · September 2, 2019, 5:06 pm

Hello

in VisualNEO Win we have 2 functions called DateToNum and NumToDate.
they are very useful but VisualNEO Web doesn't have them

i could easily convert Calendar to Persian Calendar system using this lines in VisualNEO win:

DateToNum "[DateShort]" "Default" "[mdate]"
Math "[mdate]-226894" "0" "[pdate]"
NumToDate "[pdate]" "yyyy/m/d" "[pdate]"

But i don't know how to do it in VisualNEO Web.
i think they are easy functions and it will be nice if you can add them to VisualNEO Web :)

Thank you, Regards.

@noyzen

I believe there are plans to develop a plugin that will allow all sorts of date/time conversion/addition/subtraction.

If you are familiar with Javascript, you can use its rich set of date/time functionality; you can learn all about them here ... https://www.w3schools.com/js/js_date_methods.asp

If you don't know Javascript, and can not wait for the plugin, let us know, and code to perform the two tasks can be be posted here.

No i cant use Java Script (but i will look at the link and try to see if i can use it)

it's Ok i will wait for plugin or next update

i may find a way to do it using custom scripts in VisualNEO Web but i think it's good suggestion anyways to add that functions they are useful :)

@noizen I have edited the already existing Date/Time plugin and added a new command to transform any date into a locale format:

dtLocalDate 2019 03 06 [mydate] "fa-IR"

Just replace the existing plugin with the attached one.
Does it work for you?

Hi! Thank you this is awesome, with one single command i can convert date now.

But there is some miscalculation in this command

today is: 1398-6-11
In Persian Calendar

But when i convert date: 2019-09-02 (today) to Persian it shows:
1398-7-10 Which is wrong.

Good morning @noyzen,
Thats quite strange. This is the whole code used inside the plugin:

function dtLocalDate(year,month,day,locale){
  var thedate  = new Date(year,month,day);
  returnvar=thedate.toLocaleDateString(locale);
  return returnvar;
};

The toLocaleDateString is part of JavaScript language and it makes all the calculations.
Does it happen in all the browsers?

I have added a modification to include the hour but can't check your problem as I don't understand persian characters:

function dtLocalDate(year,month,day,locale){
  var today  = new Date(year,month,day,12,30,30,30);
  returnvar=today.toLocaleDateString(locale);
  return returnvar;
};

Please, let me know if this fix the problem

@noyzen @luishp

Using w3schools's facility, I tried ...

var d = new Date(2019,09,03);

... and it returned ..

Thu Oct 03 2019 00:00:00 GMT-0400 (Eastern Daylight Time)

But when I tried ...

var d = new Date(2019,08,03);

... it returned ...

Tue Sep 03 2019 00:00:00 GMT-0400 (Eastern Daylight Time)

Looks like you have to enter month in zero-based format i.e. Jan=0, Feb=1 etc.

#12 · September 3, 2019, 4:11 pm

@noyzen, can you confirm @gaev information?
Is everything fine just substracting 1 to the current month?
If so, I can just substract 1 to the month number inside the plugin.
If I try:

dtLocalDate 2019 09 03 [mydate] "fa-IR"

I get: ‏۱۱‏/‏۰۷‏/‏۱۳۹۸
Persian numbers?

Sorry for delay @gaev @luishp

I get: ‏۱۱‏/‏۰۷‏/‏۱۳۹۸
Persian numbers?

yes right now is 1398-06-12

i think it's 1 month and 1 day, but i'm not sure if we subtract we will be fine in future...

so i will test and give you result here

#14 · September 3, 2019, 9:26 pm

No Sorry, you were right it's just 1 month:

Math "[NAB.MonthNum]-1" 0 [my_month]
dtLocalDate [NAB.Year] [my_month] [NAB.DayNum] [mydate] "fa-IR"
AlertBox "" "[mydate]" ""

this one seems working fine.

also you can check code of commands i told you before in VisualNEO Win and see how they convert date to number and convert it back.

#15 · September 4, 2019, 12:04 pm

I have updated the plugin so it's not necessary to substract 1 to the month.
See attached file.

@s7shanbe VisualNEO Web pligins have no compatibility with VisualNEO Win.
Sorry.

Hi there,

When using this plugin, the numerical value of solar months does not match with their names. For example, in this photo, the month "Bahman - بهمن" should be number 11, while 1 is recorded.
