std/time/timestamp.fb, line 18

• Public Static Method Now(): Timestamp static method #

  Now, on the real clock, which the OS can set back or on.

• Public Static Method DefaultValue(): Timestamp static method #

  The value to start from, like 0 for a number, "" for a String, or an empty collection.

  Doc from std.core.interfaces.Defaultable.DefaultValue.

• Public Static Method UnixEpoch(): Timestamp static method #

  1970-01-01T00:00:00Z, where Unix time starts.

• Public Static Method MinValue(): Timestamp static method #

  The earliest Timestamp there is.

• Public Static Method MaxValue(): Timestamp static method #

  The latest Timestamp there is.

• @PanicsAtCaller Public Static Method FromUnixSeconds(seconds: Int64, nanoseconds: Int64 = 0): Timestamp static method #

  The Timestamp that many seconds, and nanoseconds, after 1970-01-01T00:00:00Z, or before it below 0, as Unix time counts them, without leap seconds. One past the years a Timestamp holds panics.

• Public Static Method FromUnixMilliseconds(milliseconds: Int64): Timestamp static method #

  The Timestamp that many milliseconds after 1970-01-01T00:00:00Z, or before it below 0.

• Public Static Method FromUnixNanoseconds(nanoseconds: Int64): Timestamp static method #

  The Timestamp that many nanoseconds after 1970-01-01T00:00:00Z, or before it below 0.

• Public Static Method Parse(text: String): Timestamp? static method #

  The Timestamp RFC 3339 writes, like "2026-10-23T12:30:00Z" or "2026-10-23T14:30:00.5+02:00", with "T", "t", or a space before the time, or Null.

• @PanicsAtCaller Public Static Method Parse(text: String, pattern: String): Timestamp? static method #

  The Timestamp the text writes as the pattern says (see format.fb), or Null. A pattern without the date, or without an offset or a zone, panics.

• Public Property UnixSeconds: Int64 property #

  Its seconds since 1970-01-01T00:00:00Z, rounded down, so a moment before it has the second before.

• @PanicsAtCaller Public Property UnixMilliseconds: Int64 property #

  Its milliseconds and nanoseconds since 1970-01-01T00:00:00Z, rounded down. Those past what an Int64 holds, from before 1677 or after 2262 for nanoseconds, panic.

• @PanicsAtCaller Public Property UnixNanoseconds: Int64 property #

  Its nanoseconds since 1970-01-01T00:00:00Z. Panics when they're past what an Int64 holds.

• Public Property Nanosecond: Int property #

  Its nanoseconds past the second, from 0 to 999999999.

• Public Method InZone(zone: TimeZone): ZonedDateTime method #

  It where the zone is.

• Public Method ToUtc(): LocalDateTime method #

  Its date and time in UTC.

• @PanicsAtCaller Operator +(a: Timestamp, b: Duration): Timestamp operator #

  b after a. One past the years a Timestamp holds panics.

• @PanicsAtCaller Operator -(a: Timestamp, b: Duration): Timestamp operator #

  b before a. One past the years a Timestamp holds panics.

• @PanicsAtCaller Operator -(a: Timestamp, b: Timestamp): Duration operator #

  How long it is from b to a, below 0 when a is earlier, which panics past the longest Duration, about 292 years.

• Operator <(a: Timestamp, b: Timestamp): Bool operator #

  Whether a comes before b.

  Doc from std.core.interfaces.Comparable.Operator<.

• Public Method ToString(): String method #

  As RFC 3339 writes it in UTC, with a fraction only when there is one, like "2026-10-23T12:30:00Z" and "2026-10-23T12:30:00.25Z".

• Public Method ToRfc2822(): String method #

  As RFC 2822 writes it, in UTC: "Fri, 23 Oct 2026 12:30:00 +0000".

• @PanicsAtCaller Public Method Format(pattern: String): String method #

  As the pattern says (see format.fb), in UTC.
