Angular 2 - DatePipe issue

[levyuk]

Anyone know why when I try to format a date with the date pipe I get the following error?

Invalid argument '2016-01-19T10:10:49.892688Z' for pipe 'DatePipe' in [ {{app.LastUpdated|date}}

Thanks

You get this error if the value doesn't pass this check

https://github.com/angular/angular/blob/5ba9ced1ab6540d9ad2e25f158355633a65adc4f/modules/angular2/src/common/pipes/date_pipe.ts#L121

supports(obj: any): boolean { return isDate(obj) || isNumber(obj); }

isDate from https://github.com/angular/angular/blob/7ae23adaff2990cf6022af9792c449730d451d1d/modules/angular2/src/facade/lang.ts#L126

export function isDate(obj): boolean { return obj instanceof Date && !isNaN(obj.valueOf());}

so, the value has to be either of type `Date` or `number`

This might work (not tried)

{{new Date(app.LastUpdated)|date}}

It looks like it is the format of the date which is causing the problem. If I do

new Date(myDate)|date 

then it works fine.
