moment.js - test if a date is today, yesterday, within a week or two weeks ago

I am trying with moment.js to know if a date is today, yesterday, 1 week ago, or older (2 weeks ago or more).

I already done that for the first two cases:

var today = moment().startOf('day');

var yesterday = moment().subtract(1, 'days').startOf('day');



if (moment(localTime).isSame(today, 'd')) // today

    // do something

if (moment(localTime).isSame(yesterday, 'd')) // yesterday

    // do something

Is that correct?

However, how could I check if a date is a week ago, or older (eg. two weeks ago)?

Here's something that can be useful:

var REFERENCE = moment(2015-06-05); // fixed just for testing, use moment();

var TODAY = REFERENCE.clone().startOf('day');

var YESTERDAY = REFERENCE.clone().subtract(1, 'days').startOf('day');

var A_WEEK_OLD = REFERENCE.clone().subtract(7, 'days').startOf('day');



function isToday(momentDate) {

    return momentDate.isSame(TODAY, 'd');

}

function isYesterday(momentDate) {

    return momentDate.isSame(YESTERDAY, 'd');

}

function isWithinAWeek(momentDate) {

    return momentDate.isAfter(A_WEEK_OLD);

}

function isTwoWeeksOrMore(momentDate) {

    return !isWithinAWeek(momentDate);

}



console.log(is it today? ..................Should be true: +isToday(moment(2015-06-05)));

console.log(is it yesterday? ..............Should be true: +isYesterday(moment(2015-06-04)));

console.log(is it within a week? ..........Should be true: +isWithinAWeek(moment(2015-06-03)));

console.log(is it within a week? ..........Should be false: +isWithinAWeek(moment(2015-05-29)));

console.log(is it two weeks older or more? Should be false: +isTwoWeeksOrMore(moment(2015-05-30)));

console.log(is it two weeks older or more? Should be true: +isTwoWeeksOrMore(moment(2015-05-29)));

Check a JSFiddle demo with more tests, so you can tweak for your exact case, if needed.
