Having problems with dates

[bambinou]

Hello,

I am using Quasar V1.
I have been having a few problems with dates and would like to know if anyone has experienced the same issue before.

Based on the import { date } from 'quasar';

I should be able to do this:

<q-date v-model="date" mask="DD-MM-YYYYTHH:mm:ss.SSSZ"/>

OR

let timeStamp = date.formatDate(Date.now(), 'DD-MM-YYYYTHH:mm:ss.SSSZ'); // This is for the user visual

Which should give me a date with a time.

My hope was to then have this time converted to Unix with:

let unixDate = parseInt(date.formatDate(timeStamp, 'X')); // This is for my actions calculations.

My first problem is that the UNIX time when reconverted back with an online Unix convertor, it gives me a totally different date/month than the initial date.

My second issue is that after I reconvert this time to Unix, I would like to have a 24 hours span from that time(backward).

Ie: if right now we are the 4th of sept 2019 time 20:00
I would like to have
have the 3rd of sept 2019 time 20:00

Any idea why I am having the above issues please?

Thank you.

@bambinou You should do something like this:

// we import all of `date`
import { date } from 'quasar'
// destructuring to keep only what is needed
const { addToDate } = date

let newDate = addToDate(new Date(), { days: 7, month: 1 })

You could use days: -1 or hours: -24
