Date error

[4ependoZzz]

Hi, every time when I input due date in obsidian task or task in ticktick this date update after sync with "undefined" and I can not use tasks in obsidian and tick tick

[thesamim]

TickTickSync dates are all in YYYY-MM-DD format to comply with Task dates. Can you tell me what you are expecting to see instead of undefined?

Also:

1. What plugins do you have enabled?
2. Do any of them change the date format?
3. How are you entering the dates?

I know that the date format in TickTick is YYYY-MM-DD. I found confirmation of this here: TickTick Developer

Instead of "undefined," I expected to see 📅 2024-03-17.

Also:

1. I made an experiment on a new storage without any additional plugins. I installed only Tasks and TickTickSync plugins.
2. Accordingly, no plugins change the date format. 3.1. In Obsidian, I enter the date through the task menu. Afterward, it ends up at the end of the task in normal form. Then, during synchronization, it is replaced with undefined-DD.MM.YYYY-undefined. After that during synchronization back from TickTick, the date is placed before the tag. In TickTick, the date is not set, and the entry undefined-date-undefined goes into the task description. 3.2. In TickTick, I set the date in the standard way. It also ends up at the end of the task in Obsidian in the format undef-DD.MM.YYYY-undef during synchronization, and after that, it is moved into the body of the task. In TickTick, the date is cleared at this point.

It might also be useful for investigating my issue. I also tried installing the Ultimate Todoist Sync plugin in another obsidian vault. With it, this problem did not occur. I think the issue is not with the date format on the Obsidian side.

What platform is this happening in?

   3.1. In Obsidian, I enter the date through the task menu. Afterward, it ends up at the end of the task in normal form. 

Are you putting in a scheduled date or a due date?

Please do this:

1. Please enter a task using the same method, but do NOT add the TickTick tag. copy the line from the .md file and paste it here.

2. using your favorite method (Ctrl-Shift-I in Windows. Don't know what it is in other platforms) go to the debug console.

3. In the console type in console.log(Intl.DateTimeFormat().resolvedOptions().timeZone) and let me know what you see. is what I see...

4. In Ticktick, what time zone do you have?

It looks like we're losing year and day in the time zone conversion (the two undefineds.)

[4ependoZzz]

The setup is the same on both platforms (win, android) I put in due date

1. Example from obsidian android (same on the win):
   • [ ] test task 📅 2024-03-17

the task takes this form immediately after entering the tag

• [ ] test task link #ticktick 📅 undefined-17.03.2024-undefined

and after a few seconds

• [ ] test task 📅 undefined-17.03.2024-undefined link #ticktick
  2. Done
  3. Asia/Irkutsk
  4. image at the bottom of screenshot timezone in obsidian and ticktick the same. I look at this before add a ticktick tag.

If we were losing a year and a day during the date conversion, then between undef we would only get the month, but we see the full correct date in another format.

[thesamim]

I'm sorry, I'm not able to reproduce this. I have set my timezone the same as yours on both Windows and Android. All working as designed.

I have not tested this with any language other than English. Is it possible that we are running into a language difference problem?

Could you please

1. back up your main.js file in <your vault root>\.obsidian\plugins\tickticksync
2. replace it with the main.js here in this zip file: main.zip
3. filter console with "@@@"
4. let me know what you see.

Sorry, I can't download this file (main.zip) Error 54113 the same in this discussion error 54113

Let's try this: https://github.com/thesamim/TickTickSync/blob/65-enable-plugin-on-android-mobile/dist/TickTickSyn-1.0.18-Test.zip and click on download.

[4ependoZzz]

I got it)) yellow hilight looks provocative

[thesamim]

Thanks! That was helpful.

I believe I found the issue: date.toLocaleString is returning date in your locale format, but I was not accounting for the difference in formats. I have made a change to always get the local time in the format the code is expecting.

If you could check two things please:

1. That we don't see undefined-17.03.2024-undefined any longer
2. That the date for the task is accurate per your time zone

Please download: https://github.com/thesamim/TickTickSync/blob/65-enable-plugin-on-android-mobile/dist/TickTickSyn-1.0.18-Test.zip again and let me know if that did, indeed, fix the problem.
