Pickadate：将日期转换为Unix时间戳

Question

I have read the API located here: http://amsul.ca/pickadate.js/api/

but couldn't find a way to convert the date output by the picker to a unix timestamp integer. Has anyone had any luck with it?

Answer 1

you can use the 'set' event

picker.on({
  set: function(thingSet) {
    if (thingSet.select) {
      console.log(thingSet.select);
    }
  }
})

see the docs and see this codepen

Answer 2

You can use the JavaScript Date.parse() method to convert the date string returned by onSet to the Unix epoch time in milliseconds.

// date selector
var my_date = $('#my_date').pickadate({
    // onSet fires each time the date is changed
    onSet: function(context) {
        // only proceed if the returned object
        // has the select key
        if(context.select){
            // JavaScript Date.parse() automatically parses 
            // the date string into Unix epoch time in milliseconds
            var unix_timestamp = Date.parse(context.select);
            // log to console
            console.log(unix_timestamp);
        }
    }
});
