Unable to read correct data when excel sheet has both datetime and numbers fields

[Sameera Kumarasingha]

i'm reading following excel sheet. But when rawNumbers is true, it messes up datetime and time data. And when raw is false, then it show numbers in scientific format. Is there any other way to read all three data types (numbers, date and datetime) without any formatting as in excel sheet.

let XLSX = require("xlsx");
let wb = XLSX.readFile("./test.xlsx", { type: 'binary' });
let wsname = wb.SheetNames[0];
let ws = wb.Sheets[wsname];
let excelData = XLSX.utils.sheet_to_json(ws, { header: 1, blankrows: false, rawNumbers: true });
console.log(excelData); 

excelData = XLSX.utils.sheet_to_json(ws, { header: 1, raw: false });
console.log(excelData);

Output is

[ [ 'First', 22261438612413, 0.434027777777778, 44328 ] ]
[ [ 'First', '2.22614E+13', '10:25:00 AM', '2021-05-12' ] ]

Pass the option cellDates: true to XLSX.readFile to force date objects:

let wb = XLSX.readFile("./test.xlsx", { type: 'binary', cellDates: true });

I had the same issue and I was using the option cellDates: true

Pass the option cellDates: true to XLSX.readFile to force date objects:

let wb = XLSX.readFile("./test.xlsx", { type: 'binary', cellDates: true });
