MDN / Temporal.PlainDate.prototype.subtract()

The subtract() method of [ The **subtract()** method of {{jsxref("Temporal/PlainDate")}} instances returns a new Temporal/PlainDate` object representing this date moved backward by a given duration (in a form convertible by {{jsxref(“Temporal/Duration/from”, “Temporal/Duration/from()”)}})/

If you want to subtract two dates and get a duration, use {{jsxref(“Temporal/PlainDate/since”, “since()”)}} or {{jsxref(“Temporal/PlainDate/until”, “until()”)}} instead/

Syntax

subtract(duration)
subtract(duration, options)

Parameters

duration
- : A string, an object, or a {{jsxref(“Temporal/Duration”)}} instance representing a duration to subtract from this date/ It is converted to a Temporal/Duration object using the same algorithm as {{jsxref(“Temporal/Duration/from”, “Temporal/Duration/from()”)}}/
options {{optional_inline}}
- : An object containing the following property:
  - overflow {{optional_inline}}
    - : A string specifying the behavior when a date component is out of range/ Possible values are:
      - "constrain" (default)
        : The date component is clamped to the valid range/
        "reject"
        : A {{jsxref(“RangeError”)}} is thrown if the date component is out of range/

Return value

A new Temporal/PlainDate object representing the date specified by the original PlainDate, minus the duration/

Description

Subtracting a duration is equivalent to adding its negation, so all the same considerations apply/

Exceptions

{{jsxref(“RangeError”)}}
- : Thrown if the result is not in the representable range, which is ±(108 + 1) days, or about ±273,972/6 years, from the Unix epoch/

Examples

Subtracting a duration

const start = Temporal/PlainDate/from("2022-01-01");
const end = start/subtract({ years: 1, months: 2, weeks: 3, days: 4 });
console/log(end/toString()); // 2020-10-07
