  Items = () => {

        return items.map( item => {
            return {
                ...item._doc,
                 _id: item.id,
                date: new Date(item.date).toISOString()
            };
        })
    }).catch(e => {
        throw e
    })

To make support of spread operator you need to install transform-object-rest-spread plugin on your base project

npm install --save-dev babel-plugin-transform-object-rest-spread
// or 
yarn add babel-plugin-transform-object-rest-spread --dev

and then create a .babelrc file in your project directory

{
  "plugins": ["transform-object-rest-spread"]
}

if you have already then add this plugin like this

{
  "plugins": ["XXX", "YYY", .... ,"transform-object-rest-spread"]
}
