This is a Moment.js plugin that allows you to work with only business days (Monday to Friday). You can customize the working week, and also set custom dates for holidays to exclude them from being counted as business days, for example national holidays.
- This plugin works on both server and client side.
- This plugin is based on momentjs-business.
- All contributions are welcome.
- Thanks to the contributors for making this plugin better!!

});
// Defines days from 1 (Monday) to 6 (Saturday) as business days. Note that Sunday is day 0.
// When omitting this configuration parameter, business days are based on locale defaultThe objects returned by methods are Moment.js objects (except .isBusinessDay() and .businessDiff()) so you can
handle them with Moment.js native methods.
Check if the date is among the holidays specified, and return true or false:
Check if the date is a business day, and return true or false:
// 31st is Saturday
moment('2015-01-31', 'YYYY-MM-DD').isBusinessDay() // false
// 30th is Friday
moment('2015-01-30', 'YYYY-MM-DD').isBusinessDay() // trueCalculate the amount of business days since the beginning of the month of the Moment.js object.
var businessDaysSinceBeginningOfTheMonth = moment('2021-07-01', 'YYYY-MM-DD').businessDaysIntoMonth();

var diff = moment('2017-05-15', 'YYYY-MM-DD').businessDiff(moment('2017-05-08', 'YYYY-MM-DD'));
// diff = 5Note that the default behavior of businessDiff is to return an absolute value,
which is a departure from moment's diff. To match the behavior of diff pass
true as the second argument to businessDiff:
var diff = moment('05-08-2017', 'YYYY-MM-DD').businessDiff(moment('05-15-2017', 'YYYY-MM-DD'), true);
// diff = -5Will add the given number of days skipping non-business days, returning a Moment.js object:
// 30th is Friday
moment('2015-01-30', 'YYYY-MM-DD').businessAdd(3)._d // Wed Feb 04 2015 00:00:00 GMT-0600 (CST)Will subtract the given number of days skipping non-business days, returning a Moment.js object:
// 27th is Tuesday
moment('27-01-2015', 'DD-MM-YYYY').businessSubtract(3)._d // Thu Jan 22 2015 00:00:00 GMT-0600 (CST)Will retrieve the next business date as a Moment.js object:
// Next business day from Friday 30th
moment('2015-01-30', 'YYYY-MM-DD').nextBusinessDay()._d // Mon Feb 02 2015 00:00:00 GMT-0600 (CST)
// Next business day from Monday 2nd
moment('2015-02-02', 'YYYY-MM-DD').nextBusinessDay()._d // Tue Feb 03 2015 00:00:00 GMT-0600 (CST)By default only 7 days into the future are checked for the next business day. To search beyond 7 days set the nextBusinessDayLimit (as a number) higher.
var moment = require('moment-business-days');
moment.updateLocale('us', {
nextBusinessDayLimit: 31
});Will retrieve the previous business date as a Moment.js object:
// Previous business day of Monday 2nd
moment('2015-02-02', 'YYYY-MM-DD').prevBusinessDay()._d // Fri Jan 30 2015 00:00:00 GMT-0600 (CST)

moment('2015-02-03', 'YYYY-MM-DD').prevBusinessDay()._d // Mon Feb 02 2015 00:00:00 GMT-0600 (CST)By default only the last 7 days are checked for the previous business day. To search beyond 7 days set the prevBusinessDayLimit (as a number) higher.
var moment = require('moment-business-days');
moment.updateLocale('us', {
prevBusinessDayLimit: 31
});Retrieve an array of the business days in the month, each one is a Moment.js object.
// Business days in month January 2015
moment('2015-01-01', 'YYYY-MM-DD').monthBusinessDays()
/*
[ { _isAMomentObject: true,
_i: '2015-01-01',

_locale: { ... },
_d: Thu Jan 01 2015 00:00:00 GMT-0600 (CST)

*/Is like .monthBusinessDays(), but this method will include the weekends in it's response.
Retrieve an array of arrays, these arrays are the representation of a business weeks and each week (array) have it own business days (Monday to Friday). There could be the case that one week (array) have less than 5 days, this is because the month started in the middle of a week, for example: the first week of January 2015 has just two days, Thursday 1st and Friday 2nd. Each day in the week arrays are Moment.js objects.
// Business weeks in month January 2015
moment('2015-01-01', 'YYYY-MM-DD').monthBusinessWeeks()
/*
[ [ { _isAMomentObject: true,
_i: '01-01-2015',
_f: 'DD-MM-YYYY',
_isUTC: false,
_pf: [...],
_locale: [...],
_d: Thu Jan 01 2015 00:00:00 GMT-0600 (CST)
