discstamp
A Versatile Timestamp Converter for Discord
A powerful npm package to effortlessly convert various timestamp formats into Discord UNIX timestamps.
Installation
To install discstamp, use npm:
npm install discstampUsage
Using discstamp is incredibly straightforward. This section provides you with detailed examples on how to convert various timestamp formats to Discord UNIX timestamps.
Basic Example
Let's begin with a simple example using an ISO 8601 timestamp. Simply import the discstamp module and call the iso function with the timestamp you want to convert:
const discstamp = require('discstamp');
const isoTimestamp = '2023-08-27T19:45:00';
const discordTimestampFromIso = discstamp.iso(isoTimestamp);
console.log(discordTimestampFromIso);AM/PM Format
You can also convert timestamps in the AM/PM format. Provide the time along with the period (AM/PM), followed by the timezone to the ampm function:
const discstamp = require('discstamp');
const amPmTimestampWithTimezone = '08:30 AM EST';
const discordTimestampFromAmPm = discstamp.ampm(amPmTimestampWithTimezone);
console.log(discordTimestampFromAmPm);
