allowEmpty destroys format?! about ember-moment HOT 12 CLOSED

removing allowEmpty from global config doesnt fix the formating..
Passing 'DD.MM.YYYY' in the hbs works. So it just dont read from global config anymore

from ember-moment.

I don't think they're related, I rewrote a large chunk and might have introduced something

from ember-moment.

what version of ember?

from ember-moment.

sadly 1.13.8 due to deprecation stuff ...

from ember-moment.

That's fine, that's actually ideal right now since it's using Ember.Helper. I'll work on fixing it now.

Another thing I discovered is when passing a null date.
the readme says If null, undefined, or an empty string as a date to any of the moment helpers then you you will Invalid Date in the output. To avoid this issue globally, you can set the option allowEmpty which all of the helpers respect and will result in nothing being rendered instead of Invalid Date.

In fact it renders the current date.

Another thing I discovered is when passing a null date.

I can't reproduce this one

from ember-moment.

Hm .. Might be an other interesting thing in the ember universe :)
But since I can set allowEmpty it doesnt kill me anymore.

from ember-moment.

3.6.1 released

If you can show me an example of the null rendering the current date I'd like to try and see what is going on there but tried it on all the helpers and I'm seeing Invalid Date as expected when allowEmpty is false in the global config

from ember-moment.

I cant provide an example since my project is from my company and this would break some copyright shit and so on :-/
But i can tell you the way I go :)

I am using ember data to get, as you expect, data from my api.
if a date is not set my api wont return the field. So the field should be null / unset.

my global config looks like above, without allowEmpty. And so the hbs.

I will try to get an example with mirage running later at home.

//edit
Now that the global format is working again it will produce 19.08.2015 for me.

from ember-moment.

If you can isolate the issue and shoot me an example that would be awesome. I don't use ember-data much these days and would probably spin my wheels trying to reproduce it.

What I think is happening is the thing you think is null is not null. You can log the prop using the {{log propKey}} helper

from ember-moment.

Nice i didn't knew the {{log}}. I'm quiet new to ember ^^

{{log model.someDate}} produces:

Wed Jun 26 2013 00:00:00 GMT+0200 (Westeuropäische Sommerzeit)
Mon Jun 10 2013 00:00:00 GMT+0200 (Westeuropäische Sommerzeit)
3x undefined

The 3 undefined "dates" are the one which will produce the current date.
I will try to setup an empty reproducing project and leave you a message.

Thanks so far.
