Just want to save Date as timestamp in Firestore database but it's storing timestamp as number:

save() {

    const data = this.transactionForm.value;

    data.type = data.type == 'true' || data.type == true ? true : false;

    data.updated = firebase.firestore.FieldValue.serverTimestamp();

    // Date string to timestamp

    data.date =  new Date(data.date.split("-").reverse().join("-")).getTime();

    let id = data.id;

    this.transCollection.doc(id).update(data);

}

I think this is because typescript date is actually displayed in unix time. You can add a | date pipe to your view, to convert it there if that is what you need?

  unixToTimestamp() {

    const date = new Date();

    const hours = date.getHours();

    const minutes = date.getMinutes();

    const seconds =  date.getSeconds();

    const day = date.getDate();

    const month = date.getMonth() + 1;

    const year = date.getFullYear();



    console.log(hours + ':' + minutes + ':' + seconds);

    console.log(day + '/' + month + '/' + year);

  }

I tried this out in typescript, and i got the following output:

11:25:07

19/11/2018

This way you can choose how you want to create your timestamp and save it in firestore

You could also print out month the way you want.

const months = ['Jan', 'Feb', 'Mar', 'Apr', 'May', 'Jun', 'Jul', 'Aug', 'Sep', 'Oct', 'Nov', 'Dec'];



const month = months[date.getMonth()];

This is because date.getMonth() gets index, which is why i use +1 to get a month.

const months = ['Jan', 'Feb', 'Mar', 'Apr', 'May', 'Jun', 'Jul', 'Aug', 'Sep', 'Oct', 'Nov', 'Dec'];

This is because date.getMonth() gets index, which is why i use +1 to get a month.
