ranges: daysOfWeek: Change a Calendar-Based Rule? about moment-recur HOT 4 CLOSED

I'm trying to understand the intended result of the rule in your code.

Rules inside a moment().recur function, as you have above, are applied when recurring dates are generated. It is an alternate syntax to the .every() style. See jsFiddle.

I am trying to change the daysOfWeek rule, adapting it to my dataset.
The source data uses Sunday = 1.

Check out this jsFiddle for a better idea of what I am trying to do.

@poing: Thanks for the additional details.

I don't see a way to customize moment-recur in this way. (I am not the ultimate authority, but that's what I have determined.)

However, you may be able to get what you need by a customization of the underlying moment functionality. The default is for weekdays to start with Sunday. The code below will change this so that the weekdays start on Saturday.

moment.updateLocale('en', {
weekdays : [
"Saturday", "Sunday", "Monday", "Tuesday", "Wednesday", "Thursday", "Friday"
]
});

@CorasApps thanks for the work-around. The jsFiddle was just a rough prototype, to give an idea of what I was looking for. Since the work-around is just a cosmetic fix, it doesn't work for my actual needs. It doesn't actually affect the underlying dates.

After digging through the code, it appears possible to set Calendar.ranges() with a rule. But createCalendarRule() implicitly prevents a new setting. The new range must match the hard-coded value. It's even verified against moment() to insure validity.

Looks like my only option is to iterate through the values to normalize my data with daysOfWeek. -or- Try to get the software vendor to represent daysOfWeek correctly.

Thank You
