I have a GET endpoint
/internal/users?role=057426a1235fa1084c6f&lastLoggedIn[$lte]=2018-11-07T22:57:44.612Z

I am using featherjs and feathers-rest client to call my services.

My problem is I get the req.query as

role: '057426a1235fa1084c6f',
lastLogged: $lte: '2018-11-07T22:57:44.612Z'

and I am getting date as string not date object.

is there any way I can transform my query to have the correct date object if I encountered any ISODate string?

I have tried something like

app.use((req, res, next) => 
 const queryFlat = flat(req.query);
 for (key in queryFlat) 
 queryFlat[key] = dateCheck(queryFlat[key]) // dateCheck returns date object if ISODate String
 
 req.query = unlfat(queryFlat)
);

This is working fine, but is there any way I can pass to qs.parser which can automatically convert date string to date Object?

I think your flat and unflat can have problem if you pass some query with keys containing . itself.

so, this can help,
using qs library

app.use(req, res, next) => 
 req.query = qs.parse(qs.stringify(req.query), 
 decoder: dateCheck, // dateCheck returns date object if ISODate String
 );

Your dateCheck function should be something like this

const dateCheck = (value, decoder) => 
 const key = decoder(value); // this 
 // ... rest of date check function
