Age Calculation of Events

[sigrunixia]

For @ProStashio

Is there any code or formula that can be used to calculate someone's age?

Let's say I want to input someone's Birthday for my notes, I would love it to show someone's age. So if I come back to them in an in-game year it would show they are a year older.

CustomJS/Dataview Solution in the interim by @ckennedy666

getBirthday(dv) {
    const fcdate = app.plugins.getPlugin("fantasy-calendar").defaultCalendar.current;
    const pg = dv.current();
    let age = null
    if (pg.Birthday) {
        const bd = pg.Birthday.split("-");
        age = fcdate.year - bd[0] - ((bd[1] > fcdate.month && bd[2] > fcdate.day) ? 1 : 0);
    }
   dv.span(age);
}

The challenge I ran into is that with this plugin all the built in Javascript date calculation routines will fail, because of the nonstandard months in use. The above was the best approximation I could come up with. It only works for anniversary calculations, however.

@ckennedy666 I am going to implement a standard API that you will be able to give two dates too and get the timespans back.

Was something ever added? I must admit, I haven't been keeping my eye on this
