cloud_Firestore store query returns null when the app is used in a different time zone : Flutter #2685

momo1606 · 2020-06-02T12:11:14Z

I have developed an app in UAE(GMT +4 gulf standard time). When the following query is executed with system time zone being as mentioned above , i get the required data. When the app is used in a different country or if i change my system time to a different time zone(i changed it to GMT+5:30 Indian standard time), the query returns null and i get an error when extracting the data.

Future getdetails() async {
  DateTime dt=DateTime.now().toUtc();
  QuerySnapshot r = await Firestore.instance.collection('maqarat_male').
  where('date',isEqualTo: Timestamp.fromDate(DateTime(dt.year,dt.month,dt.day))).getDocuments();

  print(r.documents[0].documentID);
  return r;

}

Data is present in cloud firestore no matter what time is fetched using DateTime.now().
Even if I use DateTime.now().toUtc() i get the same error.

i also queried the above using static values instead of DateTime generated values.

Future getdetails() async {
  //DateTime dt=DateTime.now().toUtc();
  QuerySnapshot r = await Firestore.instance.collection('maqarat_male').
  where('date',isEqualTo: Timestamp.fromDate(DateTime(2020,6,2))).getDocuments();

  print(r.documents[0].documentID);
  return r;

}

now with my system time being set to time zone GMT+4 i get the data and am able to execute the print statement

and after changing my system time to a different timezone(this time GMT+3 Arabian Standars Time) i ran across this error while executing the same function.

Is the issue with the cloud_function package? i am using cloud_firestore: ^0.13.5

i could also create a document in firestore with any time zone.
So the problem is with the read operations.

these are the logs

Code- this is what i executed for test purpose

import 'package:cloud_firestore/cloud_firestore.dart';
import 'package:firebase_database/firebase_database.dart';
import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
import 'package:flutter/services.dart';

void main() {
  WidgetsFlutterBinding.ensureInitialized();
  SystemChrome.setPreferredOrientations([DeviceOrientation.portraitUp])
      .then((_) {
    runApp(new MyApp());
  });
}

Future getdetails() async {
  DateTime dt=DateTime.now().toUtc();
  QuerySnapshot r = await Firestore.instance.collection('maqarat_male').
  where('date',isEqualTo: Timestamp.fromDate(DateTime(dt.year,dt.month,dt.day))).getDocuments();

  print(r.documents[0].documentID);
  return r;

}
class MyApp extends StatelessWidget {

  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context){
    getdetails();
    return MaterialApp(

@momo1606

Ive tested this with the rework that is currently in progress

When you pass isEqualTo: Timestamp.fromDate(DateTime(dt.year,dt.month,dt.day))), it creates a timestamp at the start of that day such as 2020-07-13 00:00:00.000.

As you're using "isEqualTo" it's looking for that exact timestamp.

If you want to get all documents for the whole day, you need to use multiple where statements like so

QuerySnapshot querySnapshot = await Firestore.instance.collection('myCollection')
    .where('createdAt', isGreaterThanOrEqualTo: Timestamp.fromDate(DateTime(dt.year, dt.month, dt.day)))
    .where('createdAt', isLessThanOrEqualTo: Timestamp.fromDate(DateTime(dt.year, dt.month, dt.day + 1)))
    .getDocuments();

Can you confirm this works please, and if you still experience the issue, report back,
