I have a date field set with table.date('day'); in knex schema. When I insert it with knex('table_name').insert({ someOtherData, day: '2016-08-14'}) and then use knex.select('day').from('table_name') I get [Date: 2016-08-13T22:00:00.000Z]. It seems as if it saves it as '2016-08-14T00:00:00.000Z' and then subtracts 2 hours to conver it into UTC.
This issue may be because of time zone conversion. Have you tried using timestamp?
table.timestamp('response_deadline')
It will convert date datatype to timestamp with time zone.
the docs on schema building seems vague however try to deliver this date string to a js date constructor, i'm pretty sure it will deliver you the correct date.
it tries to represent every date as the specs recommends, that's why you're seeing the date this way.

I want to extract the Date part from this timestamp 2022-05-25T061538.576403Z. However, I keep getting invalid timestamp error with both the EXTRACT() and the DATE() functions.
Will appreciate if some insights is available on why is it invalid along with the extract part.
As mentioned by #Jaytiger, The issue can be resolved by using below query to extract the Date part from the Timestamp value 2022-05-25T061538.576403Z.
DATE(LEFT('2022-05-25T061538.576403Z', 10));
I'm developing a Clio integration with access to the calendar, but there's been an issue with dates. While the documentation says they expect an ISO-8601 timestamp date, it seems like there's something adding offset to the timezone value in dates being sent to the system.
For example, if I send a date 2018-05-17T23:59:59.999999-04:00 on both start_at and end_at properties when creating a calendar entry for an all day event, the value returned when fetching this entry through the API is 2018-05-17T17:00:00-07:00, which is clearly wrong. Am I missing something here?
The expected result should be something like either 2018-05-17T23:59:59-04:00 or 2018-05-18T03:59:59Z if milliseconds are ignored.
All dates are based on UTC timezone. Could it be that your site/server/script is set to a local timezone and so the dates are off for part of the day?
Try setting your scripting environment to UTC time before making any date/time-based queries.
I am selecting the data from a table using a date string. I would like to select all rows that have a update time stamp greater than or equal to today.
The simplest way that I can think of is to put today's date in the string, and it works fine.
WHERE UPDATE_DTM >'29NOV2016:12:00'DT;
However, if I want to put something like today's date or system date, what should I put?
I used today(), but it returned all rows in the table. I am not sure if it's because today() in SAS refers to the date 1/1/1960? I also tried &sysdate, but it returned an error message seems like it requires a date conversion.
WHERE UPDATE_DTM > TODAY();
Any ideas? Your thoughts are greatly appreciated!
DATETIME() is the datetime equivalent of TODAY() (but includes the current time). You could also use dhms(TODAY(),0,0,0) if you want effectively midnight (or, for your example above, dhms(TODAY(),12,0,0) to get noon today).
In a scala program, I receive from client side a specific date for instance:
2013-10-20T23:59:59.999Z
and I really want to keep this date when saving into DB and not convert to local, so this line:
debug("--sql timestamp: " + new Timestamp(reading.timestamp.getMillis()))
is printing out: 2013-10-21 02:59:59.999(I am in Romania).
Is there any way I can ignore timezone?
This is Timestamp.toString() behavior. java.sql.Timestamp extends java.util.Date and in its toString() method it uses, in particular, super.getHours(), which, according to javadoc, returns hours interpreted in local timezone - exactly as you observe.
However, internally Timestamp still holds correct timestamp value. There may be problems with storing it to the database, though. See this answer.
2013-10-20T23:59:59.999Z and 2013-10-21 02:59:59.999 are actually the same time: 2013-10-20T23:59:59.999Z is in the UTC time zone (Z), whereas the second one is relative, and expressed as your local time zone (UTC+3 then in Romania).
In PostgreSQL, you should store your timestamps as TIMESTAMP WITH TIME ZONE (TIMESTAMPTZ) in your database to handle this. You'll always be able to print it out later in the time zone you choose then (e.g. UTC). (You might be interested in this recent question to understand why the storage type matters.)
If you want to print out the timestamp in the UTC/Z time zone again, new DateTime(millis, DateTimeZone.UTC) should help (with Joda Time).
I am trying to insert to a timestamp with timezone field of my DB a string which includes date, time and timezone using prepared statement.
The problem is that Timestamp.valueof function does not take into consideration the time zone that the string inludes so it causes an error.
The accepted format is yyyy-[m]m-[d]d hh:mm:ss[.f...] which does not mention timezone.
That is the exact code that causes the error:
pst.setTimestamp(2,Timestamp.valueOf("2012-08-24 14:00:00 +02:00"))
Is there any way that i can overcome it??
Thanks in advance!
The basic problem is that a java.sql.Timestamp does not contain timezone information. I think it is always assumed to be "local timezone".
On solution I can think of is to not use a parameter in a PreparedStatement, but a timezone literal in SQL:
update foo
set ts_col = timestamp with time zone '2012-08-24 14:00:00 +02:00'`;
Another possible solution could be to pass a properly formatted String to a PrepareStatement that uses to_timestamp():
String sql = "update foo set ts_col = to_timestamp(?, 'yyyy-mm-dd hh24:mi:ss')";
PreparedStatement pstmt = connection.prepareStatement(sql);
pstmt.setString(1, "2012-08-24 14:00:00 +02:00");
I believe that you could use one more field in your database, which would include the time zone. And calculate the time manually after you get these two fields
