When I select a date I see the correct date in the field but, when I save, the datepicker send the day before the date I have selected ( 3 hours offset ) i am using angular reactive form and MatMomentDateModule for date picker .
the problem is related to timezones but i just want to save the same date that the user enter to database .
Code repreduced here : https://stackblitz.com/edit/angular-material-moment-adapter-example-kdk9nk?file=app%2Fapp.module.ts

Any help is appreciated , and i think a lot of developers need a solution for this .
Two days ago, at https://github.com/angular/material2/issues/7167, Silthus posted his workaround that overrides the MomentJsDataAdapter. I tried it and it worked as a charm from anywhere in the globe.
First he added a MomentUtcDateAdapter that extends MomentDateAdapter
import { Inject, Injectable, Optional } from '@angular/core'; import { MAT_DATE_LOCALE } from '@angular/material'; import { MomentDateAdapter } from '@angular/material-moment-adapter'; import { Moment } from 'moment'; import * as moment from 'moment'; @Injectable() export class MomentUtcDateAdapter extends MomentDateAdapter { constructor(@Optional() @Inject(MAT_DATE_LOCALE) dateLocale: string) { super(dateLocale); } createDate(year: number, month: number, date: number): Moment { // Moment.js will create an invalid date if any of the components are out of bounds, but we // explicitly check each case so we can throw more descriptive errors. if (month < 0 || month > 11) { throw Error(`Invalid month index "${month}". Month index has to be between 0 and 11.`); } if (date < 1) { throw Error(`Invalid date "${date}". Date has to be greater than 0.`); } let result = moment.utc({ year, month, date }).locale(this.locale); // If the result isn't valid, the date must have been out of bounds for this month. if (!result.isValid()) { throw Error(`Invalid date "${date}" for month with index "${month}".`); } return result; } }
And then in the AppModule component, you have to do this:
providers: [ ... { provide: MAT_DATE_LOCALE, useValue: 'en-GB' }, { provide: MAT_DATE_FORMATS, useValue: MAT_MOMENT_DATE_FORMATS }, { provide: DateAdapter, useClass: MomentUtcDateAdapter }, ... ],
Just use option useUtc: true
for MatMomentDateAdapter
:
import { MatMomentDateModule, MAT_MOMENT_DATE_ADAPTER_OPTIONS } from '@angular/material-moment-adapter'; @NgModule({ exports: [ MatMomentDateModule, // ... ], providers: [ { provide: MAT_MOMENT_DATE_ADAPTER_OPTIONS, useValue: { useUtc: true } } ], }) export class CustomModule { }
