Moment.js - how do I get the number of years since a date, not rounded up?

There appears to be a difference function that accepts time intervals to use as well as an option to not round the result. So, something like

Math.floor(moment(new Date()).diff(moment("02/26/1978","MM/DD/YYYY"),'years',true)))

I haven't tried this, and I'm not completely familiar with moment, but it seems like this should get what you want (without having to reset the month).

if you do not want fraction values:

var years = moment().diff('1981-01-01', 'years',false);
alert( years);

if you want fraction values:

var years = moment().diff('1981-01-01', 'years',true);
alert( years);

Units can be [seconds, minutes, hours, days, weeks, months, years]


Using moment.js is as easy as:

var years = moment().diff('1981-01-01', 'years');
var days = moment().diff('1981-01-01', 'days');

For additional reference, you can read moment.js official documentation.
