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);
I am trying to get the month of a date, but it keeps showing me this: "2018-81-26 07:00".. This is my function that I use for setting the date that I need:
selectStartTime(time) {
this.selectedTime = '' + time.time + ' ' + time.period;
var date = new Date(this.start_at); // this shows good date:
//Wed Sep 26 2018 00:00:00 GMT+0200 (Central European Summer Time)
var period = time.period;
var hours = '';
// error occurs here:
var year = date.getFullYear() + '-' + date.getMonth()+1 + '-' + date.getDate();
// year: 2018-81-26 07:00
if (period === 'PM') {
hours = '' + (time.value + 12) + ':00';
this.campaignModel.starts_at = year + ' ' + hours;
} else {
hours = time.time;
this.campaignModel.starts_at = year + ' ' + hours;
}
}
What am I doing wrong?
just change below code
var year = date.getFullYear() + '-' + (date.getMonth()+1) + '-' + date.getDate();
It's actually because of the +1
var year = date.getFullYear() + '-' + date.getMonth()+1 + '-' + date.getDate();
It gets date.getMonth which is equal to 8, but since you're doing +1 and the var is treated as a string, instead of adding one, it adds the number 1 at the end, which makes it 81
If for whatever reason you need the +1, you should declare it before hand like
var month = year.getMonth() + 1;
var year = date.getFullYear() + '-' + month+ '-' + date.getDate();
Or do like other answers did correctly as well
var year = date.getFullYear() + '-' + (date.getMonth()+1) + '-' + date.getDate();
Try this.
var year = date.getFullYear() + '-' + (date.getMonth()+1) + '-' + date.getDate();
I would recommend you to use a popular library for handling/dealing with date and time
https://momentjs.com/
var d = moment(scope.date);
d.month(); // 1
d.format('ddd MMM DD YYYY'); // 'Mon Feb 01 2016
today im using Momentjs its better for many purposes
https://momentjs.com/
you can format dates and retrieve any part of that like this
moment().format('MMMM Do YYYY, h:mm:ss a'); // September 25th 2018, 10:02:25 am
moment().format('dddd'); // Tuesday
moment().format("MMM Do YY"); // Sep 25th 18
moment().format('YYYY [escaped] YYYY'); // 2018 escaped 2018
moment().format(); // 2018-09-25T10:02:48-03:00
i've tried to do this :
var curr = new Date;
var first = curr.getDate() - curr.getDay();
var last = first + 7;
var firstday = new Date(curr.setDate(first + 1)).toUTCString();
var lastday = new Date(curr.setDate(last)).toUTCString();
But i get firstday = "Mon, 18 Jan 2016 09:14:44 GMT" and
lastday = "Sun, 24 Jan 2016 09:14:44 GMT". How can i use italian name of the day and format DD/MM as "Lunedì 10/01" (Monday 10 of January in english).
Thanks

Without having to use external libraries, you want to use the toLocaleString() function.
var options = {'weekday': 'long', 'month': '2-digit', 'day': '2-digit'};
var date = new Date().toLocaleString('it-IT', options);
document.write(date)
Reference with all the possible options
Use moment.js for that
moment.locale('it');
document.write(moment().format('dddd DD/MM'));
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/moment.js/2.11.1/moment.min.js"></script>
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/moment.js/2.11.1/locale/it.js"></script>
hi you can do it by using moment.js ,By default, Moment.js comes with English locale strings. If you need other locales, you can load them into Moment.js like this:
moment.locale('it');
var currentDate = moment();
//fist
alert(moment().format('dddd, MMMM Do YYYY, h:mm:ss'));
//last
alert(currentDate.add(7, 'days').format('dddd, MMMM Do YYYY, h:mm:ss'));
this a working demo
with this approach you can craft every custom format:
function italianTimeFormat (dateUTC) {
if (dateUTC) {
let jsDateFormat = new Date(dateUTC)
let fullStringTime = {
day: Number(jsDateFormat.getDate() < 10) ? '0' + jsDateFormat.getDate() : jsDateFormat.getDate(),
month: Number((jsDateFormat.getMonth() + 1)) < 10 ? '0' + (jsDateFormat.getMonth() + 1) : (jsDateFormat.getMonth() + 1),
year: jsDateFormat.getFullYear(),
hours: Number(jsDateFormat.getHours()) < 10 ? '0' + jsDateFormat.getHours() : jsDateFormat.getHours(),
minutes: Number(jsDateFormat.getMinutes()) < 10 ? '0' + jsDateFormat.getMinutes() : jsDateFormat.getMinutes()
}
return fullStringTime.day + '/' + fullStringTime.month + '/' + fullStringTime.year + ' ' +
fullStringTime.hours + ':' + fullStringTime.minutes
}
return null
}
let today = Date.now();
document.write(italianTimeFormat(today))
I hope i've been helpful for someone
how is it possble to get the date in this format ? 28/09/2013
what i am getting now is,
Fri Sep 27 2013 15:19:01 GMT+0530 (Sri Lanka Standard Time)
This is the code i have written to get that..
var date = new Date();
var tomorrow = new Date(date.getTime() + 24 * 60 * 60 * 1000);
alert(tomorrow);
and i need to see weather, is the given date is tomorrow. something like this when i give 28/09/2013 it should alert as tomorrow or not.
any help is highlight appreciated.
NOTE : i only need to compare with date. 28/09/2013 === tomorrow
You can try following to get the next day :
var myDate=new Date();
myDate.setDate(myDate.getDate()+1);
// format a date
var dt = myDate.getDate() + '/' + ("0" + (myDate.getMonth() + 1)).slice(-2) + '/' + myDate.getFullYear();
console.log(dt);
Here is the demo : http://jsfiddle.net/5Yj3V/3/
Moment.js will do that for you very easily.
moment().add('days', 1).format('L');
I would use the DateJS library.
var tomorrow = new Date.today().addDays(1).toString("dd-mm-yyyy");
Try the below fiddle using javascript.
var tomorrow = new Date();
var newdate = new Date();
var month = (newdate.getMonth()+1);
newdate.setDate(tomorrow.getDate() + 1);
if (month < 10)
{
month = '0' + (newdate.getMonth()+1);
}
alert(newdate);
alert(newdate.getDate() + '/' + month + '/' + newdate.getFullYear());
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()

}
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.

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', ' '));

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)

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;
}

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>';

function timeConverter(UNIX_timestamp){
var a = new Date(UNIX_timestamp*1000);
var hour = a.getUTCHours();
var min = a.getUTCMinutes();
var sec = a.getUTCSeconds();
var time = hour+':'+min+':'+sec ;
return time;
}
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();
...
return time;
Shortest
(new Date(ts*1000)+'').slice(16,24)
let ts = 1549312452;
let time = (new Date(ts*1000)+'').slice(16,24);
console.log(time);
Try this :
new Date(1638525320* 1e3).toISOString() //2021-12-03T09:55:20.000Z
function getDateTime(unixTimeStamp) {
var d = new Date(unixTimeStamp);
var h = (d.getHours().toString().length == 1) ? ('0' + d.getHours()) : d.getHours();
var m = (d.getMinutes().toString().length == 1) ? ('0' + d.getMinutes()) : d.getMinutes();
var s = (d.getSeconds().toString().length == 1) ? ('0' + d.getSeconds()) : d.getSeconds();
var time = h + '/' + m + '/' + s;
return time;
}
var myTime = getDateTime(1435986900000);
console.log(myTime); // output 01/15/00
moment.js
convert timestamps to date string in js
https://momentjs.com/
moment().format('YYYY-MM-DD hh:mm:ss');
// "2020-01-10 11:55:43"

// "2020-01-08 06:10:11"
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);
