Pre-requisites

• Node.js >= 8.9.0
• NPM >= 5.5.1 (NPM comes with Node.js so there is no need to install separately.)

Setup

Install

# Install via NPM
$ npm install --save @motss/utc-time

Usage

Node.js

const {
  utcTime,
  // utcTimeSync,
} = require('@motss/utc-time');

void async function main() {
  /** NOTE: Assuming today's date is '2020-02-02', */
  const defaultUTCDatetime = await utcTime(); // utcTimeSync();
  const defaultUTCDatetimeWithOffsets = await utcTime({
    offset: {
      hour: 3,
      minute: 2,
      second: 1,
      millisecond: 0,
    },
  });
  const specifiedUTCDatetime = await utcTime({
    startDatetime: '2033-03-03T03:33:33.333Z',
  });
  
  assert(defaultUTCDatetime, new Date('2020-02-02T00:00:00.000Z')); // OK
  assert(defaultUTCDatetimeWithOffsets, new Date('2020-02-02T03:02:01.000Z')); // OK
  assert(specifiedUTCDatetime, new Date('2033-03-03T03:33:33.333Z')); // OK
}();

Native ES modules or TypeScript

// @ts-check

import {
  utcTime,
  // utcTimeSync,
} from '@motss/utc-time';

void async function main() {
  /** NOTE: Assuming today's date is '2020-02-02', */
  const defaultUTCDatetime = await utcTime(); // utcTimeSync();
  const defaultUTCDatetimeWithOffsets = await utcTime({
    offset: {
      hour: 3,
      minute: 2,
      second: 1,
      millisecond: 0,
    },
  });
  const specifiedUTCDatetime = await utcTime({
    startDatetime: '2033-03-03T03:33:33.333Z',
  });
  
  assert(defaultUTCDatetime, new Date('2020-02-02T00:00:00.000Z')); // OK
  assert(defaultUTCDatetimeWithOffsets, new Date('2020-02-02T03:02:01.000Z')); // OK
  assert(specifiedUTCDatetime, new Date('2033-03-03T03:33:33.333Z')); // OK
