Why toLocaleString() method does not effect?

Is there any way to use toLocaleString() method in nativescript? Please check toLocaleString - {N} Playground


<script>
    export default {
        data() {
            return {
                trDate: new Date(1579180347000).toLocaleString("tr"), 
                // should print 16.01.2020 16:12:27

            };
        }
    };
</script>

Browser compatibility docs says :

nodejs

Does it means that I better use some other package such as date-and-time to manage date data format ?

As per @Manoj answer {N} !== NodeJS so to get it working you'll need to install Intl to your project knowing that toLocaleString is using Intl.

npm i intl

References:

  1. tolocalstring
  2. Intl

I think, the problem is nodejs version because I have the same case on DigitalOcean auto-deploy feature.

I've solved it with engines property in package.json

{   
  "engines": {
    "node":">=15" 
  }
}

more info about package.json - engines

data() {
  return {
   trDate: new Date(1579180347000).toLocaleString("tr"),
  }
 }

maybe i'm silly, but you haven't mentioned your error this won't return a string but an object. can you please try

new Date(1579180347000).toLocaleString("tr-TR")

just to make sure it's not the problem.

also, in such scenarios what u should use is the computed not data.

  computed: {
    trDate: function () {
      return new Date(1579180347000).toLocaleString("tr-TR");
    }
  }

{N} !== NodeJS

NativeScript just has a JavaScript runtime, only CommonJS modules work with it. Anything that depends on browser / node specific features, can't be used. You may try momentjs, it has a wide range of locale support.
