SWIFT: How do I add hours to NSDate object

Question

I generate a NSDate object from string.

let dateFormatter = NSDateFormatter()
dateFormatter.dateFormat = \"yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss\"
dateFormatter.timeZone = NS         


        

Answer 1

If you are doing it more often, check out library called SwiftMoment (inspired by the same .js library), which allows you to do following (and much more!):

// Create date using moment library
let myDate = moment(myString)

// Add one hour
let dateWithAddedHour = myDate + 1.hours

Moment is a wrapper around NSDate instance, while Duration (which is what you get from Int.hours, Int.minutes etc.) wraps an NSTimeInterval value.

Implementing this should take you just a moment! (Pun intended).
