Calculates the difference (in months) between two dates.
Use Date.prototype.getFullYear()
and Date.prototype.getMonth()
to calculate the difference (in months) between two Date
objects.
const getMonthsDiffBetweenDates = (dateInitial, dateFinal) =>
Math.max(
(dateFinal.getFullYear() - dateInitial.getFullYear()) * 12 +
dateFinal.getMonth() -
dateInitial.getMonth(),
0
);
// EXAMPLE
getMonthsDiffBetweenDates(new Date('2017-12-13'), new Date('2018-04-29')); // 4
