I have a number that is the number of seconds since January 1st 1970. It was created with this:
var utcNow = (int) Math.Truncate(DateTime.UtcNow.Subtract(new DateTime(1970, 1, 1)).TotalSeconds);
Now need to convert that number to a date in string form like this:
Tue, Jan 15, 2019
Can someone give me some suggestions on how I can do this. I think I can format it myself but I need a suggestion on how to convert the integer utcNow into a datetime first.
static readonly DateTime epoch = new DateTime(1970, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0, DateTimeKind.Utc);
...
DateTime time = epoch.AddSeconds(utcNow);
You can also use this in reverse:
var seconds = (time - epoch).TotalSeconds;
(which gives a double
, but you can cast it to int
or long
etc)
Some answer are already given, and work. But this is, I believe, the most elegant way of doing it. I'm using DateTimeOffset.FromUnixTimeSeconds(int64)
DateTimeOffset dt = DateTimeOffset.FromUnixTimeSeconds(utcNow);
And now you can convert it into a DateTime Struct with help of this blog entry
Substract the given time from current time and it gives timespan instance, from that you can get total seconds
var fromDate = new DateTime(1970,1 ,1);
var diffrance = DateTime.UtcNow.Subtract(fromDate);
Console.WriteLine(diffrance.TotalSeconds);
