About:

Unix Time Conversion, This module allows site users to perform following conversions.

  • Unix-timestamp to Date conversion
  • Date to Unix-timestamp conversion

The time conversion happens with respect to standard epoch time of 01/01/1970 midnight.

We have ported the core logic of this module in to Drupal 8.

How it works:

This module provide two different ajax blocks from where conversions can be acheived for any reference date or unix-timestamp.

The ajax blocks are mentioned below.

  • Unix Timestamp To Date: For unix timestamps to date conversion.
  • Date To Unix Timestamp: For date to timestamp conversion.

Administration:

After enabling the module from "admin > modules > unix time conversion", Site admin must setup three things.

In Drupal 8 you can enable the module from "admin > Extend > unix time conversion".

  • Enable the two blocks mentioned above from Structure > Blocks section of your site.
  • Configure configuration page provided by module at admin > config > regional & language > unix time conversion .
  • Give permission 'Configure unix time coversion' to trusted roles, users with this permission can access the configuration page provided by module

Dependencies:

None.

Information for developers:

  • Block titles can be set as per your requirement by editing block.
  • Block output can be themed by css as per your requirements.
  • Block output is enclosed inside wrapper followed by an span.
  • Timestamp to Date:
    • Wrapper div id: #unix_time_conversion_calculated_date
    • Span class: .unix_time_conversion_output_date
  • Date to Timestamp:
    • Wrapper div id: #unix_time_conversion_calculated_timestamp
