Postgres date output parser
This package parses date/time outputs from Postgres into Javascript Date objects. Its goal is to match Postgres behavior and preserve data accuracy.
If you find a case where a valid Postgres output results in incorrect parsing (including loss of precision), please create a pull request and provide a failing test.
Supported Postgres Versions: >= 9.6
All prior versions of Postgres are likely compatible but not officially supported.
npm install --save postgres-date
const parse = require('postgres-date') parse('2011-01-23 22:15:51Z') // => 2011-01-23T22:15:51.000Z
Required
Type: string
A date string from Postgres.
The following semantic versioning increments will be used for changes:
- Major: Removal of support for Node.js versions or Postgres versions (not expected)
- Minor: Unused, since Postgres returns dates in standard ISO 8601 format
- Patch: Any fix for parsing behavior
