Calculate sunrise and sunset times in Javascript.
This library extends the Javascript Date object, adding methods to calculate sunrise and sunset times. It also extends the Math object to add several useful support functions. If you don't like core JS types being extended you should probably rewrite this!
Based loosely and indirectly on Kevin Boone's SunTimes Java implementation of the US Naval Observatory's algorithm.
Usage is very simple:
//Sunset tonight at the Triggertrap office
var sunset = new Date().sunset(51.4541, -2.5920);
//Sunrise at Stonehenge on midsummer's day 2000
var sunrise = new Date("2000-06-21").sunrise(51.1788, -1.8262);
//Combine it with geolocation. Sunset tonight at your location.
navigator.geolocation.getCurrentPosition(function(position) {
var sunset = new Date().sunset(position.coords.latitude, position.coords.longitude);
