Moment.js：将UTC日期从数据库转换为本地时间

Question

I'm attempting to use moment.js to convert my dates on the client side. I'm going to give the exact specifications.

Dates are stored on the server using DateTime.UtcNow in C#. They are saved to a database and look like this: 2014-06-02 21:37:40.087 , so approximately 9:37PM in UTC time. I'm in the West Coast of the US so that translates to 2:37PM PST.

When this rows is read from the application layer and sent to the browser in JSON it resolves to this string "2014-06-03T04:37:40.087Z" .

What's with the discrepancy in how it's stored in the database vs. how it comes out in JSON text?

Answer 1

It would appear that even though you are storing UTC values, you aren't treating it as UTC when retrieving those values from the database. Make sure your C# DateTime values have DateTimeKind.Utc after reading, using DateTime.SpecifiyKind .

If you'd like to edit your question with some additional details, such as the specific code involved, then I may be able to provide a clearer answer.
