Updating a date property fails on the validation

See original GitHub issue

Hello First thanks for the project !

I have a basic book node model :

module.exports = {
  ISBN: {
    type: 'int',
    primary: true
  },
  title: {
    type: 'string'
  },
  author: {
    type: 'string'
  },
  publication: {
    type: 'date'
  },
  createdAt: {
    type: 'datetime',
    default: () => new Date()
  }
}

I would like to update the publication property a specific book via API like this :

  neo4j.first('Books', 'ISBN', parseInt(req.body.ISBN)).then( book => {
    if (!book) throw({ status: 'error', message: 'Missing or wrong required fields'});
		return book.update({
      title: req.body.title,
      author: req.body.author,
      publication: new Date(req.body.publication),
		})
	})
	.then( book => {
		return res.status(200).json({ status: 'success', message: 'Book updated', data: {book: book.properties()} });
	})
	.catch((err) => { console.log(err) ; next(err) })

I got in the catch the following error

    }
  ],
  input: {
    title: 'new title',
    author: 'new author',
    publication: 2020-01-01T00:00:00.000Z
  },
  _joiError: Error [ValidationError]: child "publication" fails because ["publication" must be an instance of "Date"]
....

As you can see the date seems to be correct but i can’t get what the error could be I tried the type datetime and then i have an error about publication not being an instance of Object

Any advice is welcome

Has the version definitely updated? Try npm i --save neode@^0.4.3

I’ve just run this code and get the output in the console:
