I'm confused about these two code samples
Assuming we have a Unix timestamp generated from moment
moment().format('x');
Result: 1441721685361
Code snippet 1
moment(1441721685361);
Result: moment object with date Tue Sep 08 2015 15:14:45 GMT+0100 (BST)
Code snippet 2
moment(moment().format('x'));
Result: Invalid date
If moment().format('x') returns an integer why can't I then use it within moment() ?

moment().format('x')
returns string, but expect number in case when you pass timestamp, you can convert string to number (add +
before or use Number(string)
) and pass to moment, like this
console.log(typeof moment().format('x'));
console.log(moment(+moment().format('x')));
