Manual:WfTimestamp/bn

Overview

wfTimestamp() (part of GlobalFunctions.php) provides functionality to convert between common timestamp formats, including MediaWiki timestamps, UNIX timestamps, MySQL DATETIME format, RFC 2822 format and more. See formats below for a full list.

Timestamps will be output without a timezone or in the GMT timezone, as specified by the particular format.

Never use wfTimestamp() when inserting a timestamp into the database. This will break in Postgres and possibly other non-MySQL databases. Instead use $dbw->timestamp()

ব্যবহার

wfTimestamp( $output_format, $timestamp )
  • Returns a timestamp of type string in the format specified by the $output_format argument.
  • Throws MWException if an incorrect formats is passed via the $output_format argument.
  • Returns false if an invalid or unrecognized timestamp is passed via the $timestamp argument.
Argument Default টীকা
$output_format TS_UNIX Must be one of the constants listed in the formats table.
$timestamp এখন সময় Should be a literal timestamp (e.g. 2010-12-03 22:07:25). Any format listed in the formats table can be used.
Call with no arguments to return the current time in UNIX time format.

echo wfTimestamp(); // 1746555253

Call with one argument to return the current time in the specified format.

echo wfTimestamp( TS_ISO_8601 ); // 2025-05-06T18:14:13Z

Call with two arguments to return an arbitrary timestamp in the specified format.

Note that the timestamp can be in any format that wfTimestamp() can output.

$timestamp = 20250513181413; echo wfTimestamp( TS_ISO_8601, $timestamp ); // 2025-05-06T18:14:13Z $timestamp = '2025-05-06T18:14:13Z'; echo wfTimestamp( TS_RFC2822, $timestamp ); // Tue, 06 May 2025 18:14:13 GMT
