Gorm Read date as []uint8

GORM Read Date as []uint8

The document you expected this should be explained

Hello, i am currently using GORM with mysql database from planetscale, when using it in my local mysql, date is getting read as a time.Time format, but when i migrate the data to planetscale, it gets read as a []uint8 eventhough it has the same date format. Is it a problem within GORM or plantescale mysql?

and how do i force read it as a time.Time othern than a []uint8 ?

Expected answer

GORM read date format as a time.Time not []uint8

Gorm will convert to the specified type according to the field type. There seems to be no reason to convert to []int8. Can you provide the reproduction code?

Should be caused by not using parseTime=true in the DSN.
