Change default format for DateTime parsing in ASP.NET Core

Question

I get a Date in an ASP.NET Core Controller like this:

public class MyController:Controller{
    public IActionResult Test(DateTime date) {

    }
}

Answer 1

It is better to send your date from front to controller in the ISO format: "yyyy-MM-dd"

Any server side with any culture will understand this date format correctly.

So, I'm using sending like this:

const dateStart = new Date();
$.post("localhost:4200/start", { dateStart: dateStart.toISOString() },
    function(data) {
        console.log("Started!");
    });
