Ftime

Overview:

I was searching through the forum and I didn't see any include or plugin to perform conversions between unix timestamps efficiently, so I was checking the time library made by compuphase and decided to implement their code into a plugin adding the GMT parameter.

This plugin allows you to perform conversions between unix timestamps, it means that if you have a date and time you can convert that to a unix timestamp and vice versa.

Functions:

Code:

native getdayname(year, month, day, string[], len = sizeof(string));
native cvstamp2datetime(timestamp, &year, &month, &day, &hour, &minute, &second, GMT);
native cvdatetime2stamp(&timestamp, year, month, day, hour, minute, second, GMT);

getdayname example:

PHP Code:

new year = 2015, month = 1, day = 5, dName[10];
getdayname(year, month, day, dName);
printf("%d/%d/%d was %s.", day, month, year, dName); 


Outputs:

Code:

5/1/2015 was Monday.

cvstamp2datetime

PHP Code:

new timestamp = 1445842664, year, month, day, hour, minute, second;
cvstamp2datetime(timestamp, year, month, day, hour, minute, second, -5);
printf("[Time] %d:%d:%d | [Date] %d/%d/%d", hour, minute, second, day, month, year); 


Outputs:

Code:

[Time] 1:57:44 | [Date] 26/10/2015

cvdatetime2stamp

PHP Code:

new timestamp, year = 2015, month = 10, day = 26, hour = 1, minute = 57, second = 44;
    cvdatetime2stamp(timestamp, year, month, day, hour, minute, second, -5);
    printf("[Time] %d:%d:%d | [Date] %d/%d/%d outputs %d as an unix timestamp.", hour, minute, second, day, month, year, timestamp); 


Outputs:

Code:

[Time] 1:57:44 | [Date] 26/10/2015 outputs 1445842664 as an unix timestamp.
