rustHow to add day to date in Rust

Adding a day to a date in Rust can be done using the add_days method from the chrono crate. This method takes a NaiveDate and an i64 as parameters and returns a new NaiveDate with the added days.

Example code

use chrono::NaiveDate;

let date = NaiveDate::from_ymd(2020, 1, 1);
let new_date = date.add_days(1);

println!("{}", new_date);

Output example

2020-01-02

Code explanation

• use chrono::NaiveDate: imports the NaiveDate type from the chrono crate.
• let date = NaiveDate::from_ymd(2020, 1, 1): creates a NaiveDate from the given year, month and day.
• let new_date = date.add_days(1): adds one day to the given NaiveDate.
• println!("{}", new_date): prints the new NaiveDate to the console.
