These changes are mostly for the API, since the GUI handles dates via date picker and mostly won't let you make mistakes there. This came up because a discord user was using the API and tried to send
6/2/2022
as a purchase date, which was passing the looserdate
validation (since it is a valid date) but was being inserted into mysql very weirdly, since MySQL doesn't know what to do with that date, as it's expectingYYYY-MM-DD
. This at least kicks back an error to prevent badly formatted data from creating inaccurate results.
