In Moment.js, how do you get the current financial Quarter?

Question

Is there a simple/built in way of figuring out the current financial quarter?

ex:

• Jan-Mar: 1st
• Apr-Jul: 2nd
• Jul-Sept: 3rd

Answer 1

There is nothing built in right now, but there is conversation to add formatting tokens for quarters. https://github.com/timrwood/moment/pull/540

In the meantime, you could use something like the following.

Math.floor(moment().month() / 3) + 1;

Or, if you want it on the moment prototype, do this.

moment.fn.quarter = function () {
    return Math.floor(this.month() / 3) + 1;
}
