Smarter Date class than the default javascript Date
DateEnhanced extends Date class by adding several convenience methods, both static and instance.
This module uses ES6 syntax including spread operator. Therefore it will run in NodeJS version 6 and above.
npm install date-enhanced
const DateEnhanced = require('date-enhanced');

Truncates instance value to the units indicated in parameter _precision_ and returns the original instance, i.e. it is a chainable
method. Precision units are:
- 'ss' or 'second'
Truncates to seconds, i.e. set milliseconds to zero.
- 'mm' or 'minute'
Truncates to minute, set seconds and milliseconds to zero.
- 'hh' or 'hour'
Truncates to hour, set minutes, seconds and milliseconds to zero.
- 'DD' or 'day'
Truncates to day, i.e. set local time to zero.
- 'MM' or 'month'
Truncates to month, i.e. sets local time to zero and day of month to 1
- 'YYYY' or 'year'
Truncates to the first day of the year, local time 00:00:00.000
Please note that this method modifies the instance itself.
This method does the same job as truncate() except that it returns a new, truncated instance
and leaves the original instance unmodified.
Returns a new instance with value changed by the amount of seconds specified (both positive or negative).
Returns a new instance with value changed by the amount of minutes specified (both positive or negative).
Returns a new instance with value changed by the amount of hours specified (both positive or negative).
Returns a new instance with value changed by the amount of days specified (both positive or negative).
