JSON parse helpers

Date Reviver

You may use the dateReviver function to convert the strings that represents an ISO Date format to a Date Objects instead of strings.

var CommonUtilsHelper = require ('CommonUtilsHelper');
var jsonStr = '{"date":"2017-04-01T12:00:00Z"}';
var obj = JSON.parse(jsonStr, CommonUtilsHelper.JSON.dateReviver);
// The typeof obj.date should be object instead of string

This will convert a sting of type '2017-04-01T12:00:00Z' to a Date object of the same date/time. Access to Date methods would be available directly from the parsed date property.
