Tiny library to create and manipulate Unix timestamps in Javascript. (A Unix timestamp is the number of seconds elapsed since Unix epoch time, i.e. January 1 1970 00:00 UTC.)
npm install unix-timestampThen:
const timestamp = require('unix-timestamp');.now([offset])gives the current time, optionally applying an offset (see below).fromDate(dateOrString)gives the time from a Javascript Date object or an ISO 8601 date string.toDate(time)correspondingly gives the date from a timestamp.add(time, offset)applies an offset to the given time.duration(offset)gives the offset timestamp for the given offset string
An offset can be either a number (unit: seconds) or a string with format [+|-] [{years}y] [{months}M] [{weeks}w] [{days}d] [{hours}h] [{minutes}m] [{seconds}s] [{milliseconds}ms] (for example -30s).
The actual values (in seconds) used for each unit of time in an offset string are exposed by properties .Millisecond, .Second, .Minute, .Hour, .Day, .Week, .Month (i.e. mean Gregorian month) and .Year.
By default timestamps include decimals (fractions of a second). You can set the lib to round all returned timestamps to the second with timestamp.round = true.
npm test runs the tests with Mocha.
npm run test-cover runs the tests and outputs coverage stats with Istanbul.
npm run license updates license information with source-licenser.
The code follows the Semi-Standard style.
