os.date -1 day

[Joep]

Hi all,

I'm using this line of script to compare the date i get from value.date with the os.date
That part is working fine but now i want a second function where i can do some action one day before. This script is running once a day checking a list with dates to compare.
 

Code:

if value.date == os.date("%Y-%m-%d") then
  --do something
end

Thanks in advance,

Joep

Use this:

Code:

time = os.time() - 24 * 60 * 60
date = os.date('%Y-%m-%d', time)

Thank you admin for your quick reply and answer.
