Configurable timestamp output format
simpers opened this issue · comments
We would need to be able to change the default output format for this timestamp. I have a fork of version 3.1 where I added a setting for this. I have not converted it to version 4 yet as I am not sure Phoenix supports it.
Is it possible to change the following line to something more like below?
Line 368 in f5de8e1
case Application.get_env(:poison, :datetime_formatter) do
nil ->
Poison.Encoder.BitString.encode(@for.to_iso8601(value), options)
formatter ->
Poison.Encoder.BitString.encode(formatter.format(value), options)
end
This would allow the consumer to override the datetime output format while still defaulting to the previous behaviour.
I have not found any other system-wide solution for making sure that all the datetimes we output have the same format. If you'd to make an exception, I guess you just have to format it to a string before you encode it, but this is for all timestamps present when encoding.
