I am storing time in a MySQL database as a Unix timestamp and that gets sent to some JavaScript code. How would I get just the time out of it?
For example, in HH/MM/SS format.
let unix_timestamp = 1549312452
// Create a new JavaScript Date object based on the timestamp
// multiplied by 1000 so that the argument is in milliseconds, not seconds.
var date = new Date(unix_timestamp * 1000);
// Hours part from the timestamp
var hours = date.getHours();
// Minutes part from the timestamp
var minutes = "0" + date.getMinutes();
// Seconds part from the timestamp
var seconds = "0" + date.getSeconds();
// Will display time in 10:30:23 format
var formattedTime = hours + ':' + minutes.substr(-2) + ':' + seconds.substr(-2);
console.log(formattedTime);
For more information regarding the Date object, please refer to MDN or the ECMAScript 5 specification.
function timeConverter(UNIX_timestamp){
var a = new Date(UNIX_timestamp * 1000);
var months = ['Jan','Feb','Mar','Apr','May','Jun','Jul','Aug','Sep','Oct','Nov','Dec'];
var year = a.getFullYear();
var month = months[a.getMonth()];
var date = a.getDate();
var hour = a.getHours();
var min = a.getMinutes();
var sec = a.getSeconds();
var time = date + ' ' + month + ' ' + year + ' ' + hour + ':' + min + ':' + sec ;
return time;
}
console.log(timeConverter(0));
JavaScript works in milliseconds, so you'll first have to convert the UNIX timestamp from seconds to milliseconds.
var date = new Date(UNIX_Timestamp * 1000);
// Manipulate JavaScript Date object here...
Use:
var s = new Date(1504095567183).toLocaleDateString("en-US")
console.log(s)
// expected output "8/30/2017"
and for time:
var s = new Date(1504095567183).toLocaleTimeString("en-US")
console.log(s)
// expected output "3:19:27 PM"
see Date.prototype.toLocaleDateString()
Modern Solution (for 2020)
In the new world, we should be moving towards the standard Intl JavaScript object, that has a handy DateTimeFormat constructor with .format() method:
function format_time(s) {
const dtFormat = new Intl.DateTimeFormat('en-GB', {
timeStyle: 'medium',
timeZone: 'UTC'
});
return dtFormat.format(new Date(s * 1e3));
}
console.log( format_time(12345) ); // "03:25:45"
Eternal Solution
But to be 100% compatible with all legacy JavaScript engines, here is the shortest one-liner solution to format seconds as hh:mm:ss:
function format_time(s) {
return new Date(s * 1e3).toISOString().slice(-13, -5);
}
console.log( format_time(12345) ); // "03:25:45"
Method Date.prototype.toISOString() returns time in
simplified extended ISO 8601 format, which is always 24 or 27 characters long (i.e. YYYY-MM-DDTHH:mm:ss.sssZ or
±YYYYYY-MM-DDTHH:mm:ss.sssZ respectively). The timezone is always
zero UTC offset.
This solution does not require any third-party libraries and is supported in all browsers and JavaScript engines.
I'm partial to Jacob Wright's Date.format() library, which implements JavaScript date formatting in the style of PHP's date() function.
new Date(unix_timestamp * 1000).format('h:i:s')
I'd think about using a library like momentjs.com, that makes this really simple:
Based on a Unix timestamp:
var timestamp = moment.unix(1293683278);
console.log( timestamp.format("HH/mm/ss") );
Based on a MySQL date string:
var now = moment("2010-10-10 12:03:15");
console.log( now.format("HH/mm/ss") );
shortest one-liner solution to format seconds as hh:mm:ss: variant:
console.log(new Date(1549312452 * 1000).toISOString().slice(0, 19).replace('T', ' '));
// "2019-02-04 20:34:12"
In moment you must use unix timestamp:
const dateTimeString = moment.unix(1466760005).format("DD-MM-YYYY HH:mm:ss");
This works with PHP timestamps
var d = 1541415288860;
//var d =val.timestamp;
//NB: use + before variable name
var date = new Date(+d);
console.log(d);
console.log(date.toDateString());
console.log(date.getFullYear());
console.log(date.getMinutes());
console.log(date.getSeconds());
console.log(date.getHours());
console.log(date.toLocaleTimeString());
var d =val.timestamp;
var date=new Date(+d); //NB: use + before variable name
console.log(d);
console.log(date.toDateString());
console.log(date.getFullYear());
console.log(date.getMinutes());
console.log(date.getSeconds());
console.log(date.getHours());
console.log(date.toLocaleTimeString());
the methods above will generate this results

There's a bunch of methods that work perfectly with timestamps. Cant list them all
UNIX timestamp is number of seconds since 00:00:00 UTC on January 1, 1970 (according to Wikipedia).
Argument of Date object in Javascript is number of miliseconds since 00:00:00 UTC on January 1, 1970 (according to W3Schools Javascript documentation).
See code below for example:
function tm(unix_tm) {
var dt = new Date(unix_tm*1000);
document.writeln(dt.getHours() + '/' + dt.getMinutes() + '/' + dt.getSeconds() + ' -- ' + dt + '<br>');
}
tm(60);
tm(86400);
gives:
1/1/0 -- Thu Jan 01 1970 01:01:00 GMT+0100 (Central European Standard Time)
1/0/0 -- Fri Jan 02 1970 01:00:00 GMT+0100 (Central European Standard Time)
Using Moment.js, you can get time and date like this:
var dateTimeString = moment(1439198499).format("DD-MM-YYYY HH:mm:ss");
And you can get only time using this:
var timeString = moment(1439198499).format("HH:mm:ss");
The problem with the aforementioned solutions is, that if hour, minute or second, has only one digit (i.e. 0-9), the time would be wrong, e.g. it could be 2:3:9, but it should rather be 02:03:09.
According to this page it seems to be a better solution to use Date's "toLocaleTimeString" method.
Another way - from an ISO 8601 date.
var timestamp = 1293683278;
var date = new Date(timestamp * 1000);
var iso = date.toISOString().match(/(\d{2}:\d{2}:\d{2})/)
alert(iso[1]);
Based on #shomrat's answer, here is a snippet that automatically writes datetime like this (a bit similar to StackOverflow's date for answers: answered Nov 6 '16 at 11:51):
today, 11:23
or
yersterday, 11:23
or (if different but same year than today)
6 Nov, 11:23
or (if another year than today)
6 Nov 2016, 11:23
function timeConverter(t) {
var a = new Date(t * 1000);
var today = new Date();
var yesterday = new Date(Date.now() - 86400000);
var months = ['Jan', 'Feb', 'Mar', 'Apr', 'May', 'Jun', 'Jul', 'Aug', 'Sep', 'Oct', 'Nov', 'Dec'];
var year = a.getFullYear();
var month = months[a.getMonth()];
var date = a.getDate();
var hour = a.getHours();
var min = a.getMinutes();
if (a.setHours(0,0,0,0) == today.setHours(0,0,0,0))
return 'today, ' + hour + ':' + min;
else if (a.setHours(0,0,0,0) == yesterday.setHours(0,0,0,0))
return 'yesterday, ' + hour + ':' + min;
else if (year == today.getFullYear())
return date + ' ' + month + ', ' + hour + ':' + min;
else
return date + ' ' + month + ' ' + year + ', ' + hour + ':' + min;
}
function getTIMESTAMP() {
var date = new Date();
var year = date.getFullYear();
var month = ("0" + (date.getMonth() + 1)).substr(-2);
var day = ("0" + date.getDate()).substr(-2);
var hour = ("0" + date.getHours()).substr(-2);
var minutes = ("0" + date.getMinutes()).substr(-2);
var seconds = ("0" + date.getSeconds()).substr(-2);
return year + "-" + month + "-" + day + " " + hour + ":" + minutes + ":" + seconds;
}
//2016-01-14 02:40:01
The modern solution that doesn't need a 40 KB library:
Intl.DateTimeFormat is the non-culturally imperialistic way to format a date/time.
// Setup once
var options = {
//weekday: 'long',
//month: 'short',
//year: 'numeric',
//day: 'numeric',
hour: 'numeric',
minute: 'numeric',
second: 'numeric'
},
intlDate = new Intl.DateTimeFormat( undefined, options );
// Reusable formatter
var timeStamp = 1412743273;
console.log( intlDate.format( new Date( 1000 * timeStamp ) ) );
Pay attention to the zero problem with some of the answers. For example, the timestamp 1439329773 would be mistakenly converted to 12/08/2015 0:49.
I would suggest on using the following to overcome this issue:
var timestamp = 1439329773; // replace your timestamp
var date = new Date(timestamp * 1000);
var formattedDate = ('0' + date.getDate()).slice(-2) + '/' + ('0' + (date.getMonth() + 1)).slice(-2) + '/' + date.getFullYear() + ' ' + ('0' + date.getHours()).slice(-2) + ':' + ('0' + date.getMinutes()).slice(-2);
console.log(formattedDate);
Now results in:
12/08/2015 00:49
There are multiple ways to convert unix timestamp to time (HH/MM/SS)
Using new Date() - this is in-built in javascript
moment package - this is a famous node module, but this is going to deprecate.
dayjs package - this is one of the latest and fast growing node module
Using new Date()
const dateTimeStr = new Date(1504052527183).toLocaleString()
const result = (dateTimeStr.split(", ")[1]).split(":").join("/")
console.log(result)
Using moment
const moment = require('moment')
const timestampObj = moment.unix(1504052527183);
const result = timestampObj.format("HH/mm/ss")
console.log(result);
Using day.js
const dayjs = require('dayjs')
const result = dayjs(1504052527183).format("HH/mm/ss")
console.log(result);
you can check the timestamp to time conversion with an online time conversion tool
// Format value as two digits 0 => 00, 1 => 01
function twoDigits(value) {
if(value < 10) {
return '0' + value;
}
return value;
}
var date = new Date(unix_timestamp*1000);
// display in format HH:MM:SS
var formattedTime = twoDigits(date.getHours())
+ ':' + twoDigits(date.getMinutes())
+ ':' + twoDigits(date.getSeconds());
function getDateTimeFromTimestamp(unixTimeStamp) {
let date = new Date(unixTimeStamp);
return ('0' + date.getDate()).slice(-2) + '/' + ('0' + (date.getMonth() + 1)).slice(-2) + '/' + date.getFullYear() + ' ' + ('0' + date.getHours()).slice(-2) + ':' + ('0' + date.getMinutes()).slice(-2);
}
const myTime = getDateTimeFromTimestamp(1435986900000);
console.log(myTime); // output 01/05/2000 11:00
You can use the following function to convert your timestamp to HH:MM:SS format :
var convertTime = function(timestamp, separator) {
var pad = function(input) {return input < 10 ? "0" + input : input;};
var date = timestamp ? new Date(timestamp * 1000) : new Date();
return [
pad(date.getHours()),
pad(date.getMinutes()),
pad(date.getSeconds())
].join(typeof separator !== 'undefined' ? separator : ':' );
}
Without passing a separator, it uses : as the (default) separator :
time = convertTime(1061351153); // --> OUTPUT = 05:45:53
If you want to use / as a separator, just pass it as the second parameter:
time = convertTime(920535115, '/'); // --> OUTPUT = 09/11/55
Demo
var convertTime = function(timestamp, separator) {
var pad = function(input) {return input < 10 ? "0" + input : input;};
var date = timestamp ? new Date(timestamp * 1000) : new Date();
return [
pad(date.getHours()),
pad(date.getMinutes()),
pad(date.getSeconds())
].join(typeof separator !== 'undefined' ? separator : ':' );
}
document.body.innerHTML = '<pre>' + JSON.stringify({
920535115 : convertTime(920535115, '/'),
1061351153 : convertTime(1061351153, ':'),
1435651350 : convertTime(1435651350, '-'),
1487938926 : convertTime(1487938926),
1555135551 : convertTime(1555135551, '.')
}, null, '\t') + '</pre>';

See Date/Epoch Converter.
You need to ParseInt, otherwise it wouldn't work:
if (!window.a)
window.a = new Date();
var mEpoch = parseInt(UNIX_timestamp);
if (mEpoch < 10000000000)
mEpoch *= 1000;

a.setTime(mEpoch);
var year = a.getFullYear();

If you want to convert Unix time duration to real hours, minutes, and seconds, you could use the following code:
var hours = Math.floor(timestamp / 60 / 60);
var minutes = Math.floor((timestamp - hours * 60 * 60) / 60);
var seconds = Math.floor(timestamp - hours * 60 * 60 - minutes * 60 );
var duration = hours + ':' + minutes + ':' + seconds;
Code below also provides 3-digit millisecs, ideal for console log prefixes:
const timeStrGet = date => {
const milliSecsStr = date.getMilliseconds().toString().padStart(3, '0') ;
return `${date.toLocaleTimeString('it-US')}.${milliSecsStr}`;
};
setInterval(() => console.log(timeStrGet(new Date())), 299);
Timestamp:
1395660658
Code:
//timestamp conversion
exports.getCurrentTimeFromStamp = function(timestamp) {
var d = new Date(timestamp);
timeStampCon = d.getDate() + '/' + (d.getMonth()) + '/' + d.getFullYear() + " " + d.getHours() + ':' + d.getMinutes();
return timeStampCon;
};
This converts the time stamp properly in terms of time format, but the date is always:
17/0/1970
Why - cheers?
You have to multiply by 1000 as JavaScript counts in milliseconds since epoch (which is 01/01/1970), not seconds :
var d = new Date(timestamp*1000);
Reference
function convertTimestamp(timestamp) {
var d = new Date(timestamp * 1000), // Convert the passed timestamp to milliseconds
yyyy = d.getFullYear(),
mm = ('0' + (d.getMonth() + 1)).slice(-2), // Months are zero based. Add leading 0.
dd = ('0' + d.getDate()).slice(-2), // Add leading 0.
hh = d.getHours(),
h = hh,
min = ('0' + d.getMinutes()).slice(-2), // Add leading 0.
ampm = 'AM',
time;
if (hh > 12) {
h = hh - 12;
ampm = 'PM';
} else if (hh === 12) {
h = 12;
ampm = 'PM';
} else if (hh == 0) {
h = 12;
}
// ie: 2014-03-24, 3:00 PM
time = yyyy + '-' + mm + '-' + dd + ', ' + h + ':' + min + ' ' + ampm;
return time;
}
You can get the value by calling like convertTimestamp('1395660658')
Because your time is in seconds. Javascript requires it to be in milliseconds since epoch. Multiply it by 1000 and it should be what you want.
//time in seconds
var timeInSeconds = ~(new Date).getTime();
//invalid time
console.log(new Date(timeInSeconds));
//valid time
console.log(new Date(timeInSeconds*1000));
const timeStamp = 1611214867768;
const dateVal = new Date(timeStamp).toLocaleDateString('en-US');
console.log(dateVal)
I am using method to get data
function date() {
let str = '';
const currentTime = new Date();
const year = currentTime.getFullYear();
const month = currentTime.getMonth();
const day = currentTime.getDate();
const hours = currentTime.getHours();
let minutes = currentTime.getMinutes();
let seconds = currentTime.getSeconds();
if (month < 10) {
//month = '0' + month;
}
if (minutes < 10) {
//minutes = '0' + minutes;
}
if (seconds < 10) {
//seconds = '0' + seconds;
}
str += year + '-' + month + '-' + day + ' ' + hours + ':' + minutes + ':' + seconds + ' ';
console.log(str);
}
And as output I get
2017-6-13 20:36:6
I would like to get the same thing, but like
2017-06-13 20:36:06
But if I try one of the lines, that I commented out, for example this one
month = '0' + month;
I get error
Argument of type 'string' is not assignable to parameter of type 'number'.
How could I concat string and number?
Union Types
You can use a union type when declaring variables.
let month: string | number = currentTime.getMonth();
if (month < 10) {
month = '0' + month;
}
Template literals (ES6+)
Alternatively you can create a new variable and use a template literal
const paddedMonth: string = `0${month}`;
Your string concatenation then turns into this for example:
str = `${year}-${paddedMonth}-${day} ${hours}:${minutes}:${seconds} `;
Much more readable, IMO.
if you want to work with date, you can use momentjs module:
https://momentjs.com
moment().format('MMMM Do YYYY, h:mm:ss a'); // July 13th 2017, 11:18:05 pm
moment().format('dddd'); // Thursday
moment().format("MMM Do YY"); // Jul 13th 17
moment().format('YYYY [escaped] YYYY'); // 2017 escaped 2017
moment().format(); // 2017-07-13T23:18:05+04:30
and about the error you got,you most use like this:
let monthStr: string = month;
if ( month < 10) {
monthStr = '0' + month;
}
You can use it like this. angular environment.ts
const URL = "http://127.0.0.1";
const PORT = "8080";
const API_version = "/api/v1/";
export const environment = {
production: false,
BASE_URL: `${URL}:${PORT}${API_version}`
};
First of all, I'm not sure why you are defining month as a const and then trying to change it. Declare all your variables with let and convert them all to strings and you should be good to go.
function date() {
let str = '';
const currentTime = new Date();
let year = currentTime.getFullYear().toString();
let month = currentTime.getMonth().toString();
let day = currentTime.getDate().toString();
let hours = currentTime.getHours().toString();
let minutes = currentTime.getMinutes().toString();
let seconds = currentTime.getSeconds().toString();
if (month < 10) {
month = '0' + month;
}
if (minutes < 10) {
minutes = '0' + minutes;
}
if (seconds < 10) {
seconds = '0' + seconds;
}
str += year + '-' + month + '-' + day + ' ' + hours + ':' + minutes + ':' + seconds + ' ';
console.log(str);
}
See it working here: https://jsfiddle.net/40jbg8qt/
You could use something like this:
let pais:string = 'Ecuador';
let codigo:number = 593;
let opcionUno:string = this.pais + this.number
let opcionDos:string = this.pais.concat(this.number);
You could also do something like this:
let month: string | number = currentTime.getMonth();
if (month < 10) month = '0' + month;
Or this:
const month = currentTime.getMonth();
const monthStr = (month < 10 ? "0" : "") + month;
Normally if I wanted to get the date I could just do something like
var d = new Date();
console.log(d);
The problem with doing that, is when I run that code, it returns:
Mon Aug 24 2015 4:20:00 GMT-0800 (Pacific Standard Time)
How could I get the Date() method to return a value in a "MM-DD-YYYY" format so it would return something like:
8/24/2015
Or, maybe MM-DD-YYYY H:M
8/24/2016 4:20
Just use the built-in .toISOString() method like so: toISOString().split('T')[0]. Simple, clean and all in a single line.
var date = (new Date()).toISOString().split('T')[0];
document.getElementById('date').innerHTML = date;
<div id="date"></div>
Please note that the timezone of the formatted string is UTC rather than local time.
The below code is a way of doing it. If you have a date, pass it to the convertDate() function and it will return a string in the YYYY-MM-DD format:
var todaysDate = new Date();
function convertDate(date) {
var yyyy = date.getFullYear().toString();
var mm = (date.getMonth()+1).toString();
var dd = date.getDate().toString();
var mmChars = mm.split('');
var ddChars = dd.split('');
return yyyy + '-' + (mmChars[1]?mm:"0"+mmChars[0]) + '-' + (ddChars[1]?dd:"0"+ddChars[0]);
}
console.log(convertDate(todaysDate)); // Returns: 2015-08-25
Yet another way:
var today = new Date().getFullYear()+'-'+("0"+(new Date().getMonth()+1)).slice(-2)+'-'+("0"+new Date().getDate()).slice(-2)
document.getElementById("today").innerHTML = today
<div id="today">
By using Moment.js library, you can do:
var datetime = new Date("2015-09-17 15:00:00");
datetime = moment(datetime).format("YYYY-MM-DD");
var today = new Date();
function formatDate(date) {
var dd = date.getDate();
var mm = date.getMonth() + 1; //January is 0!
var yyyy = date.getFullYear();
if (dd < 10) {
dd = '0' + dd;
}
if (mm < 10) {
mm = '0' + mm;
}
//return dd + '/' + mm + '/' + yyyy;
return yyyy + '/' + mm + '/' +dd ;
}
console.log(formatDate(today));
function formatdate(userDate){
var omar= new Date(userDate);
y = omar.getFullYear().toString();
m = omar.getMonth().toString();
d = omar.getDate().toString();
omar=y+m+d;
return omar;
}
console.log(formatDate("12/31/2014"));
What you want to achieve can be accomplished with native JavaScript. The object Date has methods that generate exactly the output you wish.
Here are code examples:
var d = new Date();
console.log(d);
>>> Sun Jan 28 2018 08:28:04 GMT+0000 (GMT)
console.log(d.toLocaleDateString());
>>> 1/28/2018
console.log(d.toLocaleString());
>>> 1/28/2018, 8:28:04 AM
There is really no need to reinvent the wheel.
If you are trying to get the 'local-ISO' date string. Try the code below.
function (date) {
return new Date(+date - date.getTimezoneOffset() * 60 * 1000).toISOString().split(/[TZ]/).slice(0, 2).join(' ');
}
+date Get milliseconds from a date.
Ref: Date.prototype.getTimezoneOffset
Have fun with it :)
Here is a simple function I created when once I kept working on a project where I constantly needed to get today, yesterday, and tomorrow's date in this format.
function returnYYYYMMDD(numFromToday = 0){
let d = new Date();
d.setDate(d.getDate() + numFromToday);
const month = d.getMonth() < 9 ? '0' + (d.getMonth() + 1) : d.getMonth() + 1;
const day = d.getDate() < 10 ? '0' + d.getDate() : d.getDate();
return `${d.getFullYear()}-${month}-${day}`;
}
console.log(returnYYYYMMDD(-1)); // returns yesterday
console.log(returnYYYYMMDD()); // returns today
console.log(returnYYYYMMDD(1)); // returns tomorrow
Can easily be modified to pass it a date instead, but here you pass a number and it will return that many days from today.
If you're not opposed to adding a small library, Date-Mirror (NPM or unpkg) allows you to format an existing date in YYYY-MM-DD into whatever date string format you'd like.
date('n/j/Y', '2020-02-07') // 2/7/2020
date('n/j/Y g:iA', '2020-02-07 4:45PM') // 2/7/2020 4:45PM
date('n/j [until] n/j', '2020-02-07', '2020-02-08') // 2/7 until 2/8
Disclaimer: I developed Date-Mirror.
This will convert a unix timestamp to local date (+ time)
function UnixTimeToLocalDate = function( unix_epoch_time )
{
var date,
str;
date = new Date( unix_epoch_time * 1000 );
str = date.getFullYear() + '-' +
(date.getMonth() + 1 + '').padStart( 2, '0' ) + '-' +
(date.getDate() + '').padStart( 2, '0' );
// If you need hh:mm:ss too then
str += ' ' +
(date.getHours() + '').padStart( 2, '0' ) + ':' +
(date.getMinutes() + '').padStart( 2, '0' ) + ':' +
(date.getSeconds() + '').padStart( 2, '0' );
return str;
}
If you want a text format that's good for sorting use:
function formatDateYYYYMMDDHHMMSS(date){
// YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS
const datePart = date.toISOString().split("T")[0]
const timePart = date.toLocaleString('en-US', {hour12: false}).split(",")[1]
return datePart + timePart
}
As prototype:
Date.prototype.toSortString = function(){
const date = new Date(this.valueOf());
return date.toISOString().split("T")[0] +
date.toLocaleString('en-US', {hour12: false}).split(",")[1]
}
Simple one line elegant solution for fullYear-fullMonth-FullDay as '2000-01-01'
new Date().toLocaleDateString("fr-CA",
{year:"numeric", month: "2-digit", day:"2-digit"}
)
const padTo2Digits = num => {
return num.toString().padStart(2, '0')
}
const formatDate = date => {
return [
date.getFullYear(),
padTo2Digits(date.getMonth() + 1),
padTo2Digits(date.getDate())
].join('-')
}
let value = formatDate(new Date())
document.getElementById('dayFormatUS').innerHTML = value
const transformDate = date => {
const convert = date.split('-').reverse()
return convert.join('/')
}
document.getElementById('dayFormatBR').innerHTML = transformDate(value)
<div>
Format US -
<span id='dayFormatUS'></span>
</div>
<div>
Format BR -
<span id='dayFormatBR'></span>
</div>
I am storing time in a MySQL database as a Unix timestamp and that gets sent to some JavaScript code. How would I get just the time out of it?
For example, in HH/MM/SS format.
let unix_timestamp = 1549312452
// Create a new JavaScript Date object based on the timestamp
// multiplied by 1000 so that the argument is in milliseconds, not seconds.
var date = new Date(unix_timestamp * 1000);
// Hours part from the timestamp
var hours = date.getHours();
// Minutes part from the timestamp
var minutes = "0" + date.getMinutes();
// Seconds part from the timestamp
var seconds = "0" + date.getSeconds();
// Will display time in 10:30:23 format
var formattedTime = hours + ':' + minutes.substr(-2) + ':' + seconds.substr(-2);
console.log(formattedTime);
For more information regarding the Date object, please refer to MDN or the ECMAScript 5 specification.
function timeConverter(UNIX_timestamp){
var a = new Date(UNIX_timestamp * 1000);
var months = ['Jan','Feb','Mar','Apr','May','Jun','Jul','Aug','Sep','Oct','Nov','Dec'];
var year = a.getFullYear();
var month = months[a.getMonth()];
var date = a.getDate();
var hour = a.getHours();
var min = a.getMinutes();
var sec = a.getSeconds();
var time = date + ' ' + month + ' ' + year + ' ' + hour + ':' + min + ':' + sec ;
return time;
}
console.log(timeConverter(0));
JavaScript works in milliseconds, so you'll first have to convert the UNIX timestamp from seconds to milliseconds.
var date = new Date(UNIX_Timestamp * 1000);
// Manipulate JavaScript Date object here...
Use:
var s = new Date(1504095567183).toLocaleDateString("en-US")
console.log(s)
// expected output "8/30/2017"
and for time:
var s = new Date(1504095567183).toLocaleTimeString("en-US")
console.log(s)
// expected output "3:19:27 PM"
see Date.prototype.toLocaleDateString()
Modern Solution (for 2020)
In the new world, we should be moving towards the standard Intl JavaScript object, that has a handy DateTimeFormat constructor with .format() method:
function format_time(s) {
const dtFormat = new Intl.DateTimeFormat('en-GB', {
timeStyle: 'medium',
timeZone: 'UTC'
});
return dtFormat.format(new Date(s * 1e3));
}
console.log( format_time(12345) ); // "03:25:45"
Eternal Solution
But to be 100% compatible with all legacy JavaScript engines, here is the shortest one-liner solution to format seconds as hh:mm:ss:
function format_time(s) {
return new Date(s * 1e3).toISOString().slice(-13, -5);
}
console.log( format_time(12345) ); // "03:25:45"
Method Date.prototype.toISOString() returns time in
simplified extended ISO 8601 format, which is always 24 or 27 characters long (i.e. YYYY-MM-DDTHH:mm:ss.sssZ or
±YYYYYY-MM-DDTHH:mm:ss.sssZ respectively). The timezone is always
zero UTC offset.
This solution does not require any third-party libraries and is supported in all browsers and JavaScript engines.
I'm partial to Jacob Wright's Date.format() library, which implements JavaScript date formatting in the style of PHP's date() function.
new Date(unix_timestamp * 1000).format('h:i:s')
I'd think about using a library like momentjs.com, that makes this really simple:
Based on a Unix timestamp:
var timestamp = moment.unix(1293683278);
console.log( timestamp.format("HH/mm/ss") );
Based on a MySQL date string:
var now = moment("2010-10-10 12:03:15");
console.log( now.format("HH/mm/ss") );
shortest one-liner solution to format seconds as hh:mm:ss: variant:
console.log(new Date(1549312452 * 1000).toISOString().slice(0, 19).replace('T', ' '));
// "2019-02-04 20:34:12"
In moment you must use unix timestamp:
const dateTimeString = moment.unix(1466760005).format("DD-MM-YYYY HH:mm:ss");
This works with PHP timestamps
var d = 1541415288860;
//var d =val.timestamp;
//NB: use + before variable name
var date = new Date(+d);
console.log(d);
console.log(date.toDateString());
console.log(date.getFullYear());
console.log(date.getMinutes());
console.log(date.getSeconds());
console.log(date.getHours());
console.log(date.toLocaleTimeString());
var d =val.timestamp;
var date=new Date(+d); //NB: use + before variable name
console.log(d);
console.log(date.toDateString());
console.log(date.getFullYear());
console.log(date.getMinutes());
console.log(date.getSeconds());
console.log(date.getHours());
console.log(date.toLocaleTimeString());
the methods above will generate this results

There's a bunch of methods that work perfectly with timestamps. Cant list them all
UNIX timestamp is number of seconds since 00:00:00 UTC on January 1, 1970 (according to Wikipedia).
Argument of Date object in Javascript is number of miliseconds since 00:00:00 UTC on January 1, 1970 (according to W3Schools Javascript documentation).
See code below for example:
function tm(unix_tm) {
var dt = new Date(unix_tm*1000);
document.writeln(dt.getHours() + '/' + dt.getMinutes() + '/' + dt.getSeconds() + ' -- ' + dt + '<br>');
}
tm(60);
tm(86400);
gives:
1/1/0 -- Thu Jan 01 1970 01:01:00 GMT+0100 (Central European Standard Time)
1/0/0 -- Fri Jan 02 1970 01:00:00 GMT+0100 (Central European Standard Time)
Using Moment.js, you can get time and date like this:
var dateTimeString = moment(1439198499).format("DD-MM-YYYY HH:mm:ss");
And you can get only time using this:
var timeString = moment(1439198499).format("HH:mm:ss");
The problem with the aforementioned solutions is, that if hour, minute or second, has only one digit (i.e. 0-9), the time would be wrong, e.g. it could be 2:3:9, but it should rather be 02:03:09.
According to this page it seems to be a better solution to use Date's "toLocaleTimeString" method.
Another way - from an ISO 8601 date.
var timestamp = 1293683278;
var date = new Date(timestamp * 1000);
var iso = date.toISOString().match(/(\d{2}:\d{2}:\d{2})/)
alert(iso[1]);
Based on #shomrat's answer, here is a snippet that automatically writes datetime like this (a bit similar to StackOverflow's date for answers: answered Nov 6 '16 at 11:51):
today, 11:23
or
yersterday, 11:23
or (if different but same year than today)
6 Nov, 11:23
or (if another year than today)
6 Nov 2016, 11:23
function timeConverter(t) {
var a = new Date(t * 1000);
var today = new Date();
var yesterday = new Date(Date.now() - 86400000);
var months = ['Jan', 'Feb', 'Mar', 'Apr', 'May', 'Jun', 'Jul', 'Aug', 'Sep', 'Oct', 'Nov', 'Dec'];
var year = a.getFullYear();
var month = months[a.getMonth()];
var date = a.getDate();
var hour = a.getHours();
var min = a.getMinutes();
if (a.setHours(0,0,0,0) == today.setHours(0,0,0,0))
return 'today, ' + hour + ':' + min;
else if (a.setHours(0,0,0,0) == yesterday.setHours(0,0,0,0))
return 'yesterday, ' + hour + ':' + min;
else if (year == today.getFullYear())
return date + ' ' + month + ', ' + hour + ':' + min;
else
return date + ' ' + month + ' ' + year + ', ' + hour + ':' + min;
}
function getTIMESTAMP() {
var date = new Date();
var year = date.getFullYear();
var month = ("0" + (date.getMonth() + 1)).substr(-2);
var day = ("0" + date.getDate()).substr(-2);
var hour = ("0" + date.getHours()).substr(-2);
var minutes = ("0" + date.getMinutes()).substr(-2);
var seconds = ("0" + date.getSeconds()).substr(-2);
return year + "-" + month + "-" + day + " " + hour + ":" + minutes + ":" + seconds;
}
//2016-01-14 02:40:01
The modern solution that doesn't need a 40 KB library:
Intl.DateTimeFormat is the non-culturally imperialistic way to format a date/time.
// Setup once
var options = {
//weekday: 'long',
//month: 'short',
//year: 'numeric',
//day: 'numeric',
hour: 'numeric',
minute: 'numeric',
second: 'numeric'
},
intlDate = new Intl.DateTimeFormat( undefined, options );
// Reusable formatter
var timeStamp = 1412743273;
console.log( intlDate.format( new Date( 1000 * timeStamp ) ) );
Pay attention to the zero problem with some of the answers. For example, the timestamp 1439329773 would be mistakenly converted to 12/08/2015 0:49.
I would suggest on using the following to overcome this issue:
var timestamp = 1439329773; // replace your timestamp
var date = new Date(timestamp * 1000);
var formattedDate = ('0' + date.getDate()).slice(-2) + '/' + ('0' + (date.getMonth() + 1)).slice(-2) + '/' + date.getFullYear() + ' ' + ('0' + date.getHours()).slice(-2) + ':' + ('0' + date.getMinutes()).slice(-2);
console.log(formattedDate);
Now results in:
12/08/2015 00:49
There are multiple ways to convert unix timestamp to time (HH/MM/SS)
Using new Date() - this is in-built in javascript
moment package - this is a famous node module, but this is going to deprecate.
dayjs package - this is one of the latest and fast growing node module
Using new Date()
const dateTimeStr = new Date(1504052527183).toLocaleString()
const result = (dateTimeStr.split(", ")[1]).split(":").join("/")
console.log(result)
Using moment
const moment = require('moment')
const timestampObj = moment.unix(1504052527183);
const result = timestampObj.format("HH/mm/ss")
console.log(result);
Using day.js
const dayjs = require('dayjs')
const result = dayjs(1504052527183).format("HH/mm/ss")
console.log(result);
you can check the timestamp to time conversion with an online time conversion tool
// Format value as two digits 0 => 00, 1 => 01
function twoDigits(value) {
if(value < 10) {
return '0' + value;
}
return value;
}
var date = new Date(unix_timestamp*1000);
// display in format HH:MM:SS
var formattedTime = twoDigits(date.getHours())
+ ':' + twoDigits(date.getMinutes())
+ ':' + twoDigits(date.getSeconds());
function getDateTimeFromTimestamp(unixTimeStamp) {
let date = new Date(unixTimeStamp);
return ('0' + date.getDate()).slice(-2) + '/' + ('0' + (date.getMonth() + 1)).slice(-2) + '/' + date.getFullYear() + ' ' + ('0' + date.getHours()).slice(-2) + ':' + ('0' + date.getMinutes()).slice(-2);
}
const myTime = getDateTimeFromTimestamp(1435986900000);
console.log(myTime); // output 01/05/2000 11:00
You can use the following function to convert your timestamp to HH:MM:SS format :
var convertTime = function(timestamp, separator) {
var pad = function(input) {return input < 10 ? "0" + input : input;};
var date = timestamp ? new Date(timestamp * 1000) : new Date();
return [
pad(date.getHours()),
pad(date.getMinutes()),
pad(date.getSeconds())
].join(typeof separator !== 'undefined' ? separator : ':' );
}
Without passing a separator, it uses : as the (default) separator :
time = convertTime(1061351153); // --> OUTPUT = 05:45:53
If you want to use / as a separator, just pass it as the second parameter:
time = convertTime(920535115, '/'); // --> OUTPUT = 09/11/55
Demo
var convertTime = function(timestamp, separator) {
var pad = function(input) {return input < 10 ? "0" + input : input;};
var date = timestamp ? new Date(timestamp * 1000) : new Date();
return [
pad(date.getHours()),
pad(date.getMinutes()),
pad(date.getSeconds())
].join(typeof separator !== 'undefined' ? separator : ':' );
}
document.body.innerHTML = '<pre>' + JSON.stringify({
920535115 : convertTime(920535115, '/'),
1061351153 : convertTime(1061351153, ':'),
1435651350 : convertTime(1435651350, '-'),
1487938926 : convertTime(1487938926),
1555135551 : convertTime(1555135551, '.')
}, null, '\t') + '</pre>';

See Date/Epoch Converter.
You need to ParseInt, otherwise it wouldn't work:
if (!window.a)
window.a = new Date();
var mEpoch = parseInt(UNIX_timestamp);
if (mEpoch < 10000000000)
mEpoch *= 1000;

If you want to convert Unix time duration to real hours, minutes, and seconds, you could use the following code:
var hours = Math.floor(timestamp / 60 / 60);
var minutes = Math.floor((timestamp - hours * 60 * 60) / 60);
var seconds = Math.floor(timestamp - hours * 60 * 60 - minutes * 60 );
var duration = hours + ':' + minutes + ':' + seconds;
Code below also provides 3-digit millisecs, ideal for console log prefixes:
const timeStrGet = date => {
const milliSecsStr = date.getMilliseconds().toString().padStart(3, '0') ;
return `${date.toLocaleTimeString('it-US')}.${milliSecsStr}`;
};
setInterval(() => console.log(timeStrGet(new Date())), 299);
