Need to Prevent formatting of dates while reading a csv
Gaya3G opened this issue · comments
I have been using XLSX npm (https://www.npmjs.com/package/xlsx) to read excel and csv. I had been having problem with configuring date related params. I initially had code like:
const wb = XLSX.readFile(strFilePath, {
type: 'file',
cellDates: true, dateNF: 'mm/dd/yyyy'
});
const json = XLSX.utils.sheet_to_json(wb.Sheets[wb.SheetNames[0]], {
defval: "",
raw: false,
forceQuotes: true,
blankrows: true,
});
With this above code, if a date like '12/$8/2022' is entered, it got formatted as '12/08/2022' which was unexpected.
So i changed readFile to:
```
const wb = XLSX.readFile(strFilePath, {
type: 'file',
raw:true
});
```
With this, when i try to read 9/9/2022, it is read as 9/9/22.
What need to be added to read date as is from excel/csv without formatting?
