Migrar de Moment.js a Luxon

Compatibility

Luxon takes many ideas from Moment but is not a drop-in replacement: the API is different, so calls are rewritten rather than renamed.

Before you switch

The Luxon documentation keeps a table mapping Moment calls to their Luxon equivalents. The most common ones:

• moment() becomes DateTime.now().
• moment(isoString) becomes DateTime.fromISO(isoString), and a custom format goes through DateTime.fromFormat.
• moment(millis) becomes DateTime.fromMillis(millis), and moment(date) becomes DateTime.fromJSDate(date).
• m.add(1, "hours") becomes dt.plus({ hours: 1 }).
• m.year() becomes the property dt.year, and chained setters become one dt.set({ year: 2016, month: 4 }).

Pitfalls

• Luxon objects are immutable. plus returns a new instance and leaves the original alone, where Moment’s add changes the object in place. Code that relied on mutation silently stops updating.
• Months are 1-indexed in Luxon, not 0-indexed as in Moment and Date.
• Format tokens differ, so a Moment format string cannot be reused as is.
• Luxon’s parsers are strict and reject input Moment’s lenient parsing accepted.
• Arguments are not coerced. m.diff("2017-04-01") has to become dt.diff(DateTime.fromISO("2017-04-01")).
• Locales and time zones come from the browser’s or Node’s Intl API instead of data bundled with the library.
