When I set a value of Date/Time field in XPages It's value is like below.
I would like to set value without TimeZone (in this samples without ZE3).
Field Name: dtField1
Data Type: Time/Date
17.11.2016 13:13:31 ZE3
I tried #Today() and these 2 lines code below but I could not be succeded. is there any way to do it?
var now:NotesDateTime = session.createDateTime(#Now());
document1.replaceItemValue("dtField1", now);
Regard
C.A.
Time zone is always part of NotesDateTime field if field contains date and time no matter how you created it.
If the field contains date only or time only then time zone is omitted.
Set date only with
var now:NotesDateTime = session.createDateTime(#Now());
now.setAnyTime();
document1.getDocument().replaceItemValue("dtField1", now);
and time only with
var now:NotesDateTime = session.createDateTime(#Now());
now.setAnyDate();
document1.getDocument().replaceItemValue("dtField1", now);

I can set time for timeofday type fields both UI/API.
I can set time for the time type field INITIAL TIME BUDGET as 16:55 using colon(:) separator in UI for Task.
I could not set time for that field as below using suitescript,
function load(recordType, id) {
return record.load({
type: recordType,
id: id
});
}
var recordType = "task"
var id = "123"
var objectRecord = load(recordType, id);
objectRecord.setValue("estimatedtime", "16:55");
var updatedId = objectRecord.save({});
I get this error
You have entered an Invalid Field Value 16:55 for the following field: estimatedtime
I tried the following cases,
"16:55" - Invalid Field Value
16:55 - UNEXPECTED_ERROR
16.55 - No error, but set as "estimatedtime":"16:33"
How to set time for time type field?
You need to create a Date object. For example, say you pass "13:00", you'll need to do something like:
dateStr = "13:00";
d = new Date();
dateParts = dateStr.split(":");
d.setHours(+dateParts[0]);
d.setMinutes(+dateParts[1]);
And then:
objectRecord.setValue("estimatedtime", d);
you have to set only hour value.
Format has to 24 hours.
objectRecord.setValue("estimatedtime", 23);
I am working on importing data in an Excel file and it has date column.
In my app, that date column value comes as a serial number like 43101.622083333335 which stands for 01/01/2018.
When converting this serial number from Excel back to the normal date it stands for, it gives wrong year.
For example, it gives 01-Jan-1970 instead of 01-Jan-2018
``
var moment = require('moment');
var excelDate = 43101.622083333335;
var date = moment(new Date(excelDate));
var dateWithNewFormat = date.format('DD-MMM-YYYY');
console.log(dateWithNewFormat);
``
Output: 01-Jan-1970 instead of 01-Jan-2018
Any help ?
Thanks in advance.
I don't think this is an issue with the moment library. It seems that you aren't calling Date with a valid constructor argument with new Date(excelDate) (see official documentation for Date here).
The Date class doesn't understand the concept of 'Excel time' but it does understand the concept of a unix timestamp. If you refer to this post, you can see how to convert from Excel time to a unix timestamp, depending on which version of Excel you are using.
Then, I would change your code to:
var moment = require('moment');
var excelDate = 43101.622083333335;
var unixTimestamp = (excelDate-25569)*86400 //as per the post above, convert Excel date to unix timestamp, assuming Mac/Windows Excel 2011 onwards
var date = moment(new Date(unixTimestamp)); //Pass in unix timestamp instead of Excel date
var dateWithNewFormat = date.format('DD-MMM-YYYY');
console.log(dateWithNewFormat);
There is one time input i.e. start_time
I am trying to get timestamp in milliseconds for these inputs
let start_time = "17:05:00";
var start_date_moment = moment(start_time, "HH:mm:ss");
console.log(start_timestamp);
output is -> moment("2019-04-24T17:05:00.000")
This output remains same on server and local
But when I am trying to get unix timestamp in milliseconds in the same way
var start_timestamp = moment(start_time, "HH:mm:ss").valueOf();
On server at different timezone
console.log(start_timestamp);//1556125500000
console.log(moment(start_timestamp/1000).format('YYYY-MM-DD HH:mm:ss'); //2019-04-24 17:05:00
On local
console.log(start_timestamp);//1556105700000
console.log(moment(start_timestamp/1000).format('YYYY-MM-DD HH:mm:ss'); //2019-04-24 22:35:00
This start_timestamp value is different on local and server. But timestamp shouldn't change with timezone, it should remains same for all timezones. Please help me with this.
How to get the correct and same value at both places. I got this link some what related to this https://github.com/moment/moment/issues/2035
There is no issue with dates any particular format, issue is only with timestamp.
You need to take the offset into consideration when using moment (using timezones moment.js). Since no offset was passed in the input, the moment will be based on the time zone of the computer the code is running on, hence the different values..
Example:
var a = moment.tz("2013-11-18 11:55", "Asia/Taipei");
var b = moment.tz("2013-11-18 11:55", "America/Toronto");
a.format(); // 2013-11-18T11:55:00+08:00
b.format(); // 2013-11-18T11:55:00-05:00
a.utc().format(); // 2013-11-18T03:55Z
b.utc().format(); // 2013-11-18T16:55Z
If you change the time zone of a moment object using moment-timezone only affects the value of the local time. It does not change the moment in time being represented, and therefore does not change the underlying timestamp.
A Unix Timestamp is always based on UTC - you can see it as the same timestamp at any given location in the world.
Official Moment Docs on timezones
Edit:
If you use utcOffset you should pass an integer:
Example:
moment.utc("2015-10-01 01:24:21").utcOffset("-240").format('YYYYMMDD HHmmss ZZ')
// "20151001 012421 +0000"
moment.utc("2015-10-01 01:24:21").utcOffset(-240).format('YYYYMMDD HHmmss ZZ')
// "20150930 212421 -0400"
MomentJS allows offset-arguments to be passed as string, but it expects the string to be in one of the ISO8601 formats: [+/-]HH:mm or [+/-]HHmm.
To avoid this all together you could, if known, pass the location as an argument like
moment.tz(start_time, "HH:mm:ss", "Asia/Kolkata").valueOf();
as mentioned in the first example above..
I am using moment.js to work with dates and times in node.js. So far I've been able to do everything I need with it, but I am having problems formatting a time.
Here's the scenario:
User enters data (an integer), which is logged in a database, along with date (in the format YYYY-MM-DD) and time (in the format HH:MM:SS).
Next time the user goes to enter data, the previous value is read in and compared (higher, lower or equal to) the new value. However I also want to display a message such as "The last time you submitted your data was at TIME on DATE". In this case, I'd like time to be displayed in a different format (e.g. "h:mm a" i.e. "12:34 pm").
Can I use moment to format an existing date, or can moment only return current date/time? In my code I have the following function:
function userFormattedTime(time)
{
let uTime = moment(time).format('h:mm a');
return uTime
}
However when I call this function and pass it the time (taken from the database), I get "Invalid Time". What am I doing wrong?
You would parse the string from a string back to a moment object, then you can use moment to reformat the date into any other format.
I guess what you are doing wrong is not telling moment what you're sending it back, i.e. it doesn't understand the formatted string you're supplying.
Notice the format values HH:mm:ss which vary in case. The case is important and should be set to match your requirements. https://momentjs.com/docs/#/parsing/
// Original date time string
var rawDateTime = "02-02-2018 10:20:30";
// convert string to a moment object
var originalDate = moment(rawDateTime, "MM-DD-YYYY HH:mm:ss");
// Format a new string from the moment object
var newFormattedString = originalDate.format('h:mm a');
In order to calculate the difference of moment objects you can use the diff function. https://momentjs.com/docs/#/displaying/difference/
// Two different dates
var dateOne = moment("02-02-2018 10:20:30", "MM-DD-YYYY HH:mm:ss");
var dateTwo = moment("04-04-2018 10:20:30", "MM-DD-YYYY HH:mm:ss");
// Get the difference of the two dates
var diff = dateOne.diff(dateTwo);
i am using moment for getting server time .
moment.tz.setDefault("Asia/Kolkata");
var now = new Date();
var _p_date = moment.tz(now, zone).format();
time when inserting _p_date = 2016-01-05T18:32:00+05:30
But in database date variable is type of DATETIME. and time is saved as 2016-01-05 18:32:00.
and after that when i comparing with this to get time_ago funcionality. providing me wrong estimation.
using time ago = moment("2016-01-05T18:32:00.000Z").fromNow(); // is showing In 5 hours
Since your initial timezone is lost you have to create moment.tz object with selected timezone. Try this plunker
var date = moment.tz(moment("2016-01-05T18:32:00.000Z", "YYYY-MM-DDTHH:mm")
.format('YYYY-MM-DD HH:mm'), 'Asia/Kolkata');
console.log(date.fromNow());
