A quick example showing how to get the local date and time into a Function node using moment.js. This relies on the GENERIC_TIMEZONE environment variable being correctly configured (see the docs here) NOTE: In order for this to work, you must whitelist the moment library for use by setting the following environment variable: NODE_FUNCTION_ALLOW_EXTERNAL=moment For convenience, the Function code is as follows: const moment = require('moment'); let date = moment().tz($env['GENERIC_TIMEZONE']); let year = date.year(); let month = date.month(); // zero-indexed! let day = date.date(); let hour = date.hours(); let minute = date.minutes(); let second = date.seconds(); let millisecond = date.millisecond(); let formatted = date.format('YYYY-MM-DD HH:mm:ss.SSS Z'); return [ { json: { utc: date, year: year, month: month, // zero-indexed! day: day, hour: hour, minute: minute, second: second, millisecond: millisecond, formatted: formatted } } ]; `.
