Extract a date.

Note that this function is not total, it will throw an exception given an incorrectly formatted date. See 'Date.fromString' and 'Json.customDecoder'.

Can be helpful when decoding large objects incrementally.

import Date (Date)


type alias User =
  { id                : Int
  , createdAt         : Date
  , updatedAt         : Date
  , deletedAt         : Maybe Date
  , username          : Maybe String
  , email             : Maybe String
  , fullname          : Maybe String
  , fullnamePrivate   : Bool
  , stripeId          : Maybe String
  , edaTools          : Maybe String
  , avatar            : Maybe String
  , isModerator       : Bool
  , isOrganization    : Bool
  , isAdmin           : Bool
  }

metaDecoder f = f
  `map`      ("id"        := int)
  `andApply` ("createdAt" := date)
