unix timestamp from server and back also as timestamp

[peckomingo]

If get a timestamp from the server and then want to display the date for the user in "yy-mm-dd" format also when he changes the date. However, when he sends the form the date should ge send as timestamp again.

I tried to accomplish this with $parsers and my code looks something like this. `var parseDate = function(value) {

if(value instanceof Date) {
    var timestamp = value.getTime();
    return timestamp;
} else return "";

}; ngModel.$parsers.push(parseDate);`

But the date gets send as something like 2017-02-19T23:00:00.000Z in the network tab.

Is there anything wrong with the plugin and handling timestamps?

This library does not support strings for the model - please convert it to a date object when binding to ng-model as per docs for datepicker.
