In this short article, we would like to show how to get unix timstamp in seconds in JavaScript.

Note: as unix timestamp in this article we understans bash date +%s command result.

Quick solution:

// ONLINE-RUNNER:browser;

const getTimestamp = () => {
    const now = Date.now();
    return Math.floor(0.001 * now);
};


// Usage example:

const now = getTimestamp();

console.log(now);  // 1639930461
