Swift - Get next date from a array of weekdays

问题

Context

I'm making an app where I have tasks with due dates and once they are done I want to set a new due date for according to a new date according to a day of the week repeat pattern chosen by the user.

Im saving due dates as Date. Im saving the repeat pattern as Int32 (1 for Sunday, 2 for Monday, 4 for Tuesday...) but I can easily get it to an array of Strings or numbers representing each day

Problem

How do I get the next due date as Date (so I can repeat the task)?

Example

if I have a task that is completed on a Saturday and has repeat pattern of every Monday and Wednesday I want it to be set to the next Monday. If it is them completed on Monday or Tuesday I want to set the next Wednesday.

Month is never selected when other days are selected. I know how to deal with the Month. The problem is just with the days of the week

Never use 86400 for date math, Calendar and IndexSethave powerful methods to do that:

// Put your weekday indexes in an `IndexSet`
let weekdaySet = IndexSet([1, 2, 4, 7]) // Sun, Mon, Wed and Sat

// Get the current calendar and the weekday from today
let calendar = Calendar.current
var weekday =  calendar.component(.weekday, from: Date())

// Calculate the next index
if let nextWeekday = weekdaySet.integerGreaterThan(weekday) {
    weekday = nextWeekday
} else {
    weekday = weekdaySet.first!
}

// Get the next day matching this weekday
let components = DateComponents(weekday: weekday)
calendar.nextDate(after: Date(), matching: components, matchingPolicy: .nextTime)

I hope this snippet could be helpful

let SecondsPerDay: Int = (24 * 60 * 60)

enum DayOfWeek: Int
{
    case sunday = 1
    case monday = 2
    case tuesday = 3
    case wendnesday = 4
    case thrusday = 5
    case friday = 6
    case saturday = 7

    /**
        Convert a date to a enumeration member
    */
    static func day(from date: Date) -> DayOfWeek
    {
        let formatter: DateFormatter = DateFormatter()
        formatter.dateFormat = "e"


        let day_number: Int = Int(formatter.string(from: date))!

        return DayOfWeek(rawValue: day_number)
    }
}


/**
    Calculate the `TimeInterval` between days contained
    in user preferences.

    - Parameter days: Period selected by user
    - Returns: Interval between dates days
*/
func calculatePattern(withDays days: [DayOfWeek]) -> [TimeInterval]
{
    var pattern: [TimeInterval] = [TimeInterval]()

    for (index, day) in days.enumerated()
    {
        let distance: Int = (index == (days.count - 1)) ?  (7 - (day.rawValue - days[0].rawValue)) : days[index + 1].rawValue - day.rawValue

        let interval: TimeInterval = TimeInterval(SecondsPerDay * distance)

        pattern.append(interval)
    }

    return pattern
}

func nextDay(from days: [DayOfWeek]) -> DayOfWeek
{
    let today: DayOfWeek = DayOfWeek.day(from: Date())

    guard let days = days.filter({ $0.rawValue > today.rawValue }) else
    {
        return days.first!
    }

    return days.first!
}



let selectedDays: [DayOfWeek] = [ .monday, .wendnesday, .sunday, .saturday ]

// Pass the array sorted by day in week
let intervals: [TimeInterval] = calculatePattern(withDays: selectedDays.sorted(by: { $0.rawValue < $1.rawValue}))

for interval in intervals
{
    print(interval)
}

TimeInterval can be converted in Date using one of the Date class initializers.
