Convert a Unix timestamp to time in JavaScript

Question

I am storing time in a MySQL database as a Unix timestamp and that gets sent to some JavaScript code. How would I get just the time out of it?

For example, in HH/MM/SS format.

Answer 1

function timeConverter(UNIX_timestamp){    var a = new Date(UNIX_timestamp * 1000);    var months = ['Jan','Feb','Mar','Apr','May','Jun','Jul','Aug','Sep','Oct','Nov','Dec'];    var year = a.getFullYear();    var month = months[a.getMonth()];    var date = a.getDate();    var hour = a.getHours();    var min = a.getMinutes();    var sec = a.getSeconds();    var time = date + ' ' + month + ' ' + year + ' ' + hour + ':' + min + ':' + sec ;    return time;  }  console.log(timeConverter(0));

Answer 2

let unix_timestamp = 1549312452  // Create a new JavaScript Date object based on the timestamp  // multiplied by 1000 so that the argument is in milliseconds, not seconds.  var date = new Date(unix_timestamp * 1000);  // Hours part from the timestamp  var hours = date.getHours();  // Minutes part from the timestamp  var minutes = "0" + date.getMinutes();  // Seconds part from the timestamp  var seconds = "0" + date.getSeconds();    // Will display time in 10:30:23 format  var formattedTime = hours + ':' + minutes.substr(-2) + ':' + seconds.substr(-2);    console.log(formattedTime);

For more information regarding the Date object, please refer to MDN or the ECMAScript 5 specification.
