Answer 1

Try using moment's unix() method. This would give epoch equivalent of "22/04/2020".

Here the time pattern has been removed, hence it results 1587340800 .

For your output, pass in 22/04/2020 20:44:05 to get 1587568445 which is the epoch equivalent

 var epoch = moment("22/04/2020", "DD/MM/YYYY").unix(); console.log(epoch); var epoch1 = moment("22/04/2020 20:44:05", "DD/MM/YYYY hh:mm:ss").unix(); console.log(epoch1);
