GraphQL Scalars for Date (YYYY-MM-DD), DateTime (YYYY-MM-DDTHH:MM:SSZ), and Time (HH:MM:SSZ)

Schema Usage

import { gql, ApolloServer } from 'apollo-server';
import { DateScalar, TimeScalar, DateTimeScalar } from 'graphql-date-scalars';

const resolvers = {
  // Must define resolvers for these scalars
  Date: DateScalar,
  Time: TimeScalar,
  DateTime: DateTimeScalar,

  // along with all your other resolvers
  Query: {
    exampleDateQuery: () => {
      // Will serialize to a date string, such as 2007-12-03
      return new Date();
    },
    exampleTimeQuery: () => {
      // Will serialize to a time string at UTC, such as 10:15:30Z
      return new Date();
    },
  },
  Mutation: {
    exampleDateTimeMutation: () => {
      // Will serialize to a date-time string at UTC, such as 2007-12-03T10:15:30Z
      return new Date();
    },
  },
};

const typeDefs = gql`
  scalar Date
  scalar DateTime

  extend type Query {
    exampleDateQuery: Date!
    exampleTimeQuery: Time!
  }

  extend type Mutation {
    exampleDateTimeMutation: DateTime!
  }
`;

const server = new ApolloServer({
  typeDefs,
  resolvers,
});

If you are using @graphql-codegen then you must include these scalars in your codegen yml file under config

schema: './example-schema.graphql'
config:
  scalars:
    Date: Date
    Time: Date
    DateTime: Date
generates:
  src/types/example-schema.d.ts:
    plugins:
      - 'typescript'

Direct Usage

You can also use the parse and serialize methods directly, which is useful if you are making a rest call to a 3rd party vendor.

import { DateTimeScalar } from 'graphql-date-scalars';

const vendorResponse = await restClient.get();

const response = {
  ...vendorResponse,
  createdAt: DateTimeScalar.parseValue(vendorResponse.createdAt),
};

import { DateScalar } from 'graphql-date-scalars';

const args = {
  ...input,
  dateOfBirth: DateScalar.serialize(input.dateOfBirth),
};

const response = await restClient.post(args);
