Iterate over dates range (the scala way)

Question

Given a start and an end date I would like to iterate on it by day using a foreach, map or similar function. Something like

(DateTime.now to DateTime.now + 5.day         


        

Answer 1

You may use plusDays:

val now = DateTime.now
(0 until 5).map(now.plusDays(_)).foreach(println)

Given start and end dates:

import org.joda.time.Days

val start = DateTime.now.minusDays(5)
val end   = DateTime.now.plusDays(5)    

val daysCount = Days.daysBetween(start, end).getDays()
(0 until daysCount).map(start.plusDays(_)).foreach(println)
