Calculate sunrise and sunset times in Javascript. Based loosely and indirectly on Kevin Boone's SunTimes Java implementation of the US Naval Observatory's algorithm. Works on both browser (IE11+) and Node.js, ~1kb minified.
Via npm:
npm install --save sunrise-sunset-js
Via script tag:
<script src="sunrise-sunset.js">
import { getSunrise, getSunset } from 'sunrise-sunset-js';
// Or if you use CommonJS imports:
// const { getSunrise, getSunset } = require('sunrise-sunset-js')
// Sunset tonight at the Triggertrap office for today
const sunset = getSunset(51.4541, -2.5920);
// Sunrise at Stonehenge on midsummer's day 2000
const sunrise = getSunrise(51.1788, -1.8262, new Date("2000-06-21"));
// Combine it with geolocation. Sunset tonight at your location.
navigator.geolocation.getCurrentPosition(function(position) {
console.log(getSunset(position.coords.latitude, position.coords.longitude));
});
For those who still don't use js bundlers, there's global SunriseSunsetJS object, which exposes the same getSunset and getSunrise methods (must include dist/index.js in your html first)
var sunset = SunriseSunsetJS.getSunset(51.4541, -2.5920);
var sunrise = SunriseSunsetJS.getSunrise(51.4541, -2.5920, new Date("2000-06-21"));
