比较两个日期时Moment.js弃用警告

Question

I didn't see any SO thread that matches my use case. I'm trying to compare two dates to see if they match or not. If they don't, then I display an error message. The date format for both dates are in 'MM/DD/YYYY' format, with the only exception being sometimes they might be 'MM/DD/YYYY' and other times 'M/D/YYYY' .

I'm able to get it to work but keep getting a deprecated error. I tried using the moment.ISO_8601 argument but still keep getting the deprecated error.

if( !moment( start_date, moment.ISO_8601 ).isSame( user_start_date, 
  moment.ISO_8601 ) )
{
    console.log("Both dates must match!");
}
else {
    console.log("Dates match!");
}

The deprecated error is following:

moment.js:1 Deprecation warning: value provided is not in a recognized RFC2822 or ISO format. moment construction falls back to js Date(), which is not reliable across all browsers and versions. Non RFC2822/ISO date formats are discouraged and will be removed in an upcoming major release.

Is there a clean fix for this?

Answer 1

Neither 'MM/DD/YYYY' nor 'M/D/YYYY' are ISO 8601 compliant format recognized by moment.ISO_8601 See moment(String) docs to see what are ISO 8601 formats recognized by momentjs. You have to specify 'MM/DD/YYYY' (or 'M/D/YYYY' ) format instead of using moment.ISO_8601 .

You can use both 'MM/DD/YYYY' and 'M/D/YYYY' using moment(String, String[]) . This is required if you are using strict parsing . Please note that:

Starting in version 2.3.0, Moment uses some simple heuristics to determine which format to use. In order:

• Prefer formats resulting in valid dates over invalid ones.
• Prefer formats that parse more of the string than less and use more of the format than less, ie prefer stricter parsing.
• Prefer formats earlier in the array than later.

For example, using ['MM/DD/YYYY', 'MM/DD/YYYY'] , ambigous inputs like 01/10/2017 will always be interpreted as 10th of January.

Here an example that do not has Deprecation warning :

 var start_date = '11/25/2017'; var user_start_date = '27/12/2017'; if( !moment( start_date, ['MM/DD/YYYY', 'M/D/YYYY'] ).isSame( moment(user_start_date, ['MM/DD/YYYY', 'M/D/YYYY'] )) ) { console.log("Both dates must match!"); } else{ console.log("Dates match!"); }

Answer 2

I don't actually see that issue.

Can you reproduce it in the Fiddle?

var start_date = moment().format('MMM DD h:mm A');
var user_start_date = moment().format('MMM DD h:mm A');

if( !moment( start_date, moment.ISO_8601 ).isSame( user_start_date, 
  moment.ISO_8601 ) )
 {
   console.log("Both dates must match!");
 }
 else{
   console.log("Dates match!");
 }
