Temporal.Instant.prototype.equals()
Limited availability
This feature is not Baseline because it does not work in some of the most widely-used browsers.
Experimental: This is an experimental technology
Check the Browser compatibility table carefully before using this in production.
The equals() method of Temporal.Instant instances returns true if this instant is equivalent in value to another instant (in a form convertible by Temporal.Instant.from()), and false otherwise. They are compared by their epochNanoseconds. It is equivalent to Temporal.Instant.compare(this, other) === 0.
Syntax
equals(other)
Parameters
other-
A string or a
Temporal.Instantinstance representing the other instant to compare. It is converted to aTemporal.Instantobject using the same algorithm asTemporal.Instant.from().
Return value
true if this instant is equal to other by nanoseconds, false otherwise.
Examples
Using equals()
const instant1 = Temporal.Instant.from("2021-08-01T12:34:56Z");
const instant2 = Temporal.Instant.fromEpochMilliseconds(1627821296000);
console.log(instant1.equals(instant2)); // true
