Date issue in node.js and Oracle?

Question

Oracle

Connected to the database and trying to add a record with a date

...
 // maxId = 0
 // d = '31.01.2019 17:20:31'
connection.execute(
                   `INSERT INTO AVG_PRICE_HISTORY (ID_RECORD, DATETIME) VALUES (:id, TO_DATE(:dt))`,
                    {id: maxId+1, dt: d},
                    ...

Stumbles on date - the format is not pleasant
ORA-01843: not a valid month
How to treat? (DATETIME has a Date type in the base)

Answer 1

TO_DATE(:dt, 'DD.MM.YYYY HH24:MI:SS')
And the space in the value before 31 is superfluous:// d = '31.01.2019 17:20:31'
