How can I get a future unix timestamp in Javacript? ie, pass "2023-03-08 13:05:00" and get a unix timestamp corresponding to that time.
All the examples I see use the getTime() function which is the current time like this:
Javascript: future time as UNIX timestamp
I found a solution in Php which I think serves the purpose I am looking for:
Getting a future unix timestamp using a specific date and time?
Is there a similar function in Javascript?
>Solution :
// Create a Date object for the future time
var futureTime = new Date("2023-03-08 13:05:00");
// Get the Unix timestamp (in milliseconds) for the future time
var futureTimestamp = futureTime.getTime();
// Convert milliseconds to seconds
var futureUnixTimestamp = Math.floor(futureTimestamp / 1000);
console.log(futureUnixTimestamp); // Output: 1678385100
