Get Timestamp |
You can use Date.now()
to get the current timestamp in milliseconds.
You can easily convert the timestamp to seconds like this: Math.floor(Date.now() / 1000)
If your browser does not support Date.now()
, you can use new Date().getTime()
to get the timestamp in milliseconds.
Unix Timestamp is number of seconds elapsed since 01/01/1970, 00:00:00 UTC. The Unix timestamp will break on 01/19/2038.
Polyfill
For older browsers, we can use:
if (!Date.now) {
Date.now = function now() {
return new Date().getTime();
};
}
