This has been discussed more than once, and the core team always says
that date functions are not something everybody needs, so they are not
meant for core (heavy date logic is meant for the server).
Anyway, by the magic of ObjectRange, you already have date ranges :D
All you need to do is implement Date.prototype.succ to return the
"next" element in the range.
So, for example
Date.prototype.succ = function() {
return new Date(this.getFullYear(), this.getMonth(), this.getDate() + 1);
}
will return "tomorrow", and you can do
var start = new Date();
var end = new Date(this.getFullYear(), this.getMonth(), this.getDate() + 7);
$R(start, end) will then generate all the dates in this week.
Best,
