How to automatically add row at first row in google sheets?

I have google sheet which i am editing every day.

actual date is at first row + first column..

I want to create script/makro to create this row automatically each new day new row.. or add whole month.. SO each new month it would create at the top of table 30-31 new rows..

sorting like this
-> first row in table == actual date
Wednesday 21st November 2018 .....next columns.....
Tuesday 20th November 2018 .....next columns.....
Monday 19th November 2018 .....next columns.....
.
.
.
.

I found just some functions like getLastrow() but opposite nope... I would like to use just google sheets online.. no excel!

//this is example how i add lastrow... but its not correct, also it just copy paste last row.. 

// global 

var ss = SpreadsheetApp.getActive();



function onOpen() {

    var menu = [{name:"Add New Last Row", functionName:"addRow"}];

    ss.addMenu("Extra", menu);

}



function addRow() {

    var sh = ss.getActiveSheet(), lRow = sh.getLastRow(); 

    var lCol = sh.getLastColumn(), range = sh.getRange(lRow,1,1,lCol);

    sh.insertRowsAfter(lRow, 1);

    range.copyTo(sh.getRange(lRow+1, 1, 1, lCol), {contentsOnly:false});

}

Thanks for any help..

You would want to use insertRowsBefore(beforePosition, howMany). Put in the first position, and then the number of rows you would like to insert.

SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSheet.insertRowsBefore(beforePosition, howMany)
