[Bug 1482503] [NEW] Putting and then getting dates in a document are altered by u1db

 

Public bug reported:

When putting and getting a QML date in the u1db database, the resulting
strings are stored differently, even if you don't do any type
conversion.

The result is that the resulting date is shifted by the current
timezone, rendering an incorrect date.

Small example:

date is "Sun Jul 5 17:20:46 2015 GMT+0200"

This value is jsonified in var current = {"title":"First
element","date":"2015-07-05T15:20:46.000Z"}

console.log("Before save: " + JSON.stringify(tosave));
db.putDoc(tosave, current.billId);
var after = db.getDoc(current.billId.toString())
console.log("After save: " + JSON.stringify(afterSave));

log is:
qml: Before save: {"title":"First element","date":"2015-07-05T15:20:46.000Z"}
qml: After save: {"date":"2015-07-05T17:20:46","title":"First element"}

-> Note that the date element has been altered and isn't returned in the
same format The date should be returned unalterned.
