MIGRATION NOTICE:

  • ranged-date 2.0.0: back and forward ranges are now mandatory (were 0.5 each by default in 1.x.x).
  • ranged-date 2.0.0: Date Objects with values outside of the specified range will return false (would return Date Object in 1.x.x).

Converts a given string, number, or Date object to the number of milliseconds since the Unix epoch, provided that it can be recognized as millisecond, second, or microsecond time within a specified range from the current date.

Milliseconds, seconds, or microseconds may be excluded as possibilities for range matching.

Useful for:

  • Parsing timestampted data from external APIs.
  • Integrating collections containing mixed timestamp formats.
