Use moment.js in Scriptable

schl3ck · April 6, 2019, 10:07pm

Hey everyone!

I wanted to use moment.js in a script, but as I wanted to share it, I had the problem that not everyone has moment.js already installed. So I wrote a little import script to make that installation for everyone easier.

I’ve also added an update check for the script itself and moment.js.

I would love to hear some feedback!

You can find the script with some instructions here:

github.com

schl3ck/scriptable-moment/blob/master/README.md

# [moment.js](https://github.com/moment/moment) for Scriptable

Scriptable is an iOS app in which you can write JavaScript to automate stuff.

To use moment.js:

1. Open https://raw.githubusercontent.com/schl3ck/scriptable-moment/master/import-moment.js in your browser and copy the contents
2. Paste them into a new Scriptable script
3. Run the script once and it will import moment.js to `iCloud/Scriptable/lib/moment.js` if you have iCloud enabled, otherwise to `<Scriptable documentsDirectory>/lib/moment.js`
4. Use it in your script with
	```javascript
	const moment = importModule("lib/moment");
	let date = moment();
	```

Run the script again to check for updates of the script and moment.js

That’s a very interesting idea. Sort of a simple dependency manager
