Epoch

epoch(0, unit )

Epoch( num, unit )

Description

The Epoch function constructs a Timestamp relative to the Unix epoch (1970-01-01T00:00:00Z).

The num argument must be an integer value. The unit argument specifies the scale of num.

Argument Type Definition and Requirements

Argument	Type	Definition and Requirements
`num`	Number	A mathematical integer value specifying the offset from epoch.
`unit`	String	Indicates the units used by `num`. Must be one of: `day`, or `days` `half day`, or `half days` `hour`, or `hours` `minute`, or `minutes` `second`, or `seconds` `millisecond`, or `milliseconds` `microsecond`, or `microseconds` `nanosecond`, or `nanoseconds`

num

A mathematical integer value specifying the offset from epoch.

unit

Indicates the units used by num. Must be one of:

A Timestamp which represents Unix epoch plus the offset represented by num and unit.

The following query adds 0 seconds to the Unix epoch (1970-01-01T00:00:00Z) and returns a timestamp:

client.Query(
    Epoch(0, "second")
);

FaunaTime(1970-01-01T00:00:00Z)

result, err := client.Query(
	f.Epoch(0, f.TimeUnitSecond))

if err != nil {
	fmt.Fprintln(os.Stderr, err)
} else {
	fmt.Println(result)
}

{0 62135596800 <nil>}

System.out.println(
    client.query(
        Epoch(Value(0), TimeUnit.SECOND)
    ).get());

1970-01-01T00:00:00Z

client.query(
  q.Epoch(0, 'second')
)
.then((ret) => console.log(ret))
.catch((err) => console.error('Error: %s', err))

Time("1970-01-01T00:00:00Z")

result = client.query(
  q.epoch(0, "second")
)
print(result)

FaunaTime('1970-01-01T00:00:00Z')

client.query(Epoch(0, "second"))

1970-01-01T00:00:00Z
