Timestamp Format Reference
Unix timestamp represents the number of seconds or milliseconds since January 1, 1970, 00:00:00 UTC. This online timestamp converter supports the following formats:
| Type | Description | Example |
|---|---|---|
| Unix Seconds | Seconds since 1970-01-01 00:00:00 UTC | 1609459200 |
| Unix Milliseconds | Milliseconds since 1970-01-01 00:00:00 UTC | 1609459200000 |
| ISO 8601 | International standard date and time format | 2021-01-01T00:00:00Z |
Code Examples for Getting Timestamps
Here are code examples for getting the current timestamp in various programming languages, helping developers correctly obtain Unix timestamps across different platforms:
| Language | Get Seconds Timestamp | Get Milliseconds Timestamp |
|---|---|---|
| JavaScript | Math.floor(Date.now() / 1000) | Date.now() |
| PHP | time() | round(microtime(true) * 1000) |
| Python | import time int(time.time()) | import time int(time.time() * 1000) |
| Java | System.currentTimeMillis() / 1000 | System.currentTimeMillis() |
| C# | DateTimeOffset.Now.ToUnixTimeSeconds() | DateTimeOffset.Now.ToUnixTimeMilliseconds() |
| Go | time.Now().Unix() | time.Now().UnixNano() / 1e6 |
| Ruby | Time.now.to_i | (Time.now.to_f * 1000).to_i |
| Swift | Int(Date().timeIntervalSince1970) | Int(Date().timeIntervalSince1970 * 1000) |
About Timestamp Converter
What is a Timestamp?
A timestamp is an integer value representing the number of seconds or milliseconds elapsed since January 1, 1970, 00:00:00 UTC (Coordinated Universal Time). It's a universal standard for tracking time in computer systems, unaffected by factors like time zones or daylight saving time, making it convenient for representing specific moments globally. Unix timestamps are widely used in programming, database storage, log recording, and other scenarios, serving as an essential tool for programmers working with time.
