Crash: JSON value of type NSDate cannot be converted to a date

Hello!

I’m scheduling multiple notifications, but sometimes (that’s the worst part; it’s just sometimes) it crashes and throws this error:

JSON value '2016-05-25 04:00:00 +0000' of type NSDate cannot be converted to a date

Here is the code used to schedule:

static scheduleNotification(quoteDate, quoteHours, quoteOfDay){
    let notifDate = new Date(quoteDate);
    notifDate.setHours(quoteHours.hour, quoteHours.mins, 0);
    let message = '"'+quoteOfDay.frase + '" - ' + quoteOfDay.autor;
    PushNotification.localNotificationSchedule({
        id: 0,
        message: message,
        date: notifDate
    })
}

I’ve tried to use “date: new Date(notifDate)”, but no lucky. Any ideas?

Thank you

Edit:

It seems to be related with this issue: https://github.com/facebook/react-native/issues/4049

Hey guys, anyone having this problem, it might be solved passing a date in ISO 8601 format. Just use “.toISOString()”. That works for me, all the crashes are gone! (:

For Android use:

date: new Date(Date.now() + (10 * 1000))

for iOS use:

date: new Date(Date.now() + (10 * 1000)).getTime()

Is there a reason why we are doing this?

Notifications.localNotificationSchedule = function(details: Object) {
    if ( Platform.OS === 'ios' ) {
        this.handler.scheduleLocalNotification({
            fireDate: details.date,
            alertBody: details.message
        });
    } else {
        details.fireDate = details.date.getTime();
        delete details.date;
        this.handler.scheduleLocalNotification(details);
    }
};
