Formatting Date Output

[paynecodes]

It seems that node-postgres is converting timestamptz strings from postgres into JavaScript date objects.

Upon stringification of this date object, JavaScript returns an IETF-compliant RFC 2822 timestamps such as "Fri Jul 15 2016 20:49:50 GMT-0400 (EDT)". I'd prefer that my API server return ISO 8601 string such as "2016-07-16T00:49:50.000Z".

It seems that this can be accomplished using the node-pg-types as @brianc suggests.

I'm not sure how to get direct access to pg-promise's pg dependency. Is this exposed? Is there a better way to go about doing this?

Oh, wow. I suppose I was just too deep to see what was right in front of me. Thanks!
