discord-timestamp-generator

A utility package for creating Discord timestamps with customizable formats. Its simple and easy, use it in embeds, messages, everywhere you want! This module does not require any other npm modules to work.

Installation

npm install discord-timestamp-generator

Basic Usage

const { TimestampBuilder } = require('discord-timestamp-generator');

// Create a default timestamp
const timestamp = new TimestampBuilder().generate();

console.log(timestamp);

Customize Timestamp Type

You can customize the timestamp type by using the setType method. This is optional, and if not provided, the default type will be used. Here is a list of all types:

Type	Example Response	Output (12-hour clock)	Output (24-hour clock)
default	<t:1543392060>	November 28, 2018 9:01 AM	28 November 2018 09:01
short	<t:1543392060:t>	9:01 AM	09:01
long	<t:1543392060:T>	9:01:00 AM	09:01:00
short-date	<t:1543392060:d>	11/28/2018	28/11/2018
log-date	<t:1543392060:D>	November 28, 2018	28 November 2018
short-date-time	<t:1543392060:f>	November 28, 2018 9:01 AM	28 November 2018 09:01
long-date.time	<t:1543392060:F>	Wednesday, November 28, 2018 9:01 AM	Wednesday, 28 November 2018 09:01
relative-time	<t:1543392060:R>	3 years ago	3 years ago

Code Example:

const { TimestampBuilder } = require('discord-timestamp-generator');

const timestamp = new TimestampBuilder()
  .setType('short-date-time')
  .generate();

console.log(timestamp);

Provide Custom Time

If you want to use a custom timestamp, you can use the setTime method. This is optional, and if not provided, the current time will be used.

const { TimestampBuilder } = require('discord-timestamp-generator');

const currentDate = new Date();
const customUnixTime = Math.floor(currentDate.getTime() / 1000);

const timestamp = new TimestampBuilder()
  .setTime(customUnixTime)
  .generate();

console.log(timestamp);

Together

This feature enables the creation of a highly customized timestamp, utilizing both a specified custom time and a personalized timestamp type.

const { TimestampBuilder } = require('discord-timestamp-generator');

const currentDate = new Date();
const customUnixTime = Math.floor(currentDate.getTime() / 1000);

const timestamp = new TimestampBuilder()
  .setType('short-date-time')
  .setTime(customUnixTime)
  .generate();

console.log(timestamp);
