Get current Unix timestamp in Go
package main
import (
    "fmt"
    "time"
)
func main() {
    // Get current Unix timestamp in seconds
    now := time.Now()
    unixSeconds := now.Unix()
    fmt.Println("Unix seconds:", unixSeconds) // 1729584000
    
    // Get Unix timestamp in milliseconds
    unixMilli := now.UnixMilli()
    fmt.Println("Unix milliseconds:", unixMilli) // 1729584000000
    
    // Get Unix timestamp in nanoseconds
    unixNano := now.UnixNano()
    fmt.Println("Unix nanoseconds:", unixNano)
    
    // Get Unix timestamp in microseconds
    unixMicro := now.UnixMicro()
    fmt.Println("Unix microseconds:", unixMicro)
}Convert Unix timestamp to time.Time object
package main
import (
    "fmt"
    "time"
)
func main() {
    // From Unix seconds
    timestamp := int64(1729584000)
    t := time.Unix(timestamp, 0)
    fmt.Println(t) // 2024-10-22 01:20:00 +0000 UTC
    
    // From Unix milliseconds
    timestampMilli := int64(1729584000000)
    t2 := time.UnixMilli(timestampMilli)
    fmt.Println(t2)
    
    // From Unix microseconds
    timestampMicro := int64(1729584000000000)
    t3 := time.UnixMicro(timestampMicro)
    fmt.Println(t3)
    
    // Format the time
    formatted := t.Format("2006-01-02 15:04:05")
    fmt.Println(formatted) // "2024-10-22 01:20:00"
