Date translation problem

[stucka]

Describe the bug Within reports/daily stats tonight: At night I seem to be getting a day-of-the-week response based in UTC or where the server is hosted, but I'm getting a calendar-day response from my local time.

I see for example "Tuesday, 1/29/2024" -- Tuesday belonging to the latest date in the server location, and 1/29 belonging to my location. 1/29/2024 is a Monday.

To Reproduce I suspect this problem will look different in the morning when the dates appear to be the same.

Expected behavior There is a mismatch in day-of-week reporting and calendar-date reporting when the remote date is different from the local date.

Screenshots Will attach from my phone in a comment.

Your setup information Nightscout 15.0.2 Sharebridge

Additional context I believe the problem is in /lib/report_plugins/utils.js, with some unnecessarily complex day-of-week hardcoded that will also break translations. The handling for the day-of-the-week is different than the handling for the localized date, but both can be handled in the same way.

However, I am getting readings for the actual Tuesday, 1/30/2024, here in my living room where it's Monday, 1/29/2024. Any fix would need some testing.

That said, however, if a localized date string is what makes sense here, then the answer might be to rip out the hard-coded day-of-week lookup array and let toLocaleDateString handle the full translation.

(for testing: var date = new Date() )

ret = date.toDate().toLocaleDateString({weekday: "long", month: "numeric", day: "numeric", year: "numeric"});

Sample runs: date.toLocaleDateString("en-US", {weekday: "long", month: "numeric", day: "numeric", year: "numeric"}) "Monday, 1/29/2024" date.toLocaleDateString("de-DE", {weekday: "long", month: "numeric", day: "numeric", year: "numeric"}) "Montag, 29.1.2024"

The next morning's is not actually better.

At the moment there are 0 readings for "Wednesday 1/30/2024", which again does not exist; 116 readings for "Tuesday 1/29/2024", and 287 for "Monday 1/28/2024". At this moment, in my local time and in GMT, it is Tuesday, 1/30/2024.
