Class JsonUniversalDateTimeConverter

Converts a DateTime value to or from JSON, always converting the value to Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) when reading.

Inheritance

System.Object

System.Text.Json.Serialization.JsonConverter

ReadOnlyJsonConverter<DateTime>

Namespace: Umbraco.Cms.Infrastructure.Serialization

Assembly: Umbraco.Infrastructure.dll

Syntax

public sealed class JsonUniversalDateTimeConverter : ReadOnlyJsonConverter<DateTime>

Remarks

In order to match the existing behaviour, and that of MessagePack, we need to ensure that DateTimes are always read as UTC. This is not the case by default for System.Text.Json, see: https://github.com/dotnet/runtime/issues/1566.
