Convert from Unix Timestamp to date in Groovy












0














I have a date in unix timestamp and I want to convert it to human readable...



 def dateUnix = 1486146877214
Date dateObj = new Date( ((long)dateUnix) * 1000 )
def cleanDate = new SimpleDateFormat('yyyy-MM-dd').format(dateObj)
println "clean date $cleanDate"


This gives me..



  clean date 49064-02-13


where I was expecting "2017-02-03".



What am I doing wrong?



I even casted the timestamp to a long explicitly as suggested in this answer.

Don't multiply by 1000 - new Date(long) is in millisecs not microsecs

    There is default way to convert Unix time stamp to Java date:



    import java.time.Instant
    import java.util.Date

    def unixTimeStamp = 1486146877214
    Date date = Date.from(Instant.ofEpochSecond(unixTimeStamp))
