The current date/time. Use this in conjunction with other date functions.
The date function formats a date.
Format the date to YEAR-MONTH-DAY:
now | date "2006-01-02"
Date formatting in Go is a little bit different.
In short, take this as the base date:
Mon Jan 2 15:04:05 MST 2006
Write it in the format you want. Above, 2006-01-02 is the same date, but
in the format we want.
Same as date, but with a timezone.
date "2006-01-02" (now) "UTC"
The dateModify takes a modification and a date and returns the timestamp.
Subtract an hour and thirty minutes from the current time:
now | date_modify "-1.5h"
The htmlDate function formates a date for inserting into an HTML date picker
input field.
now | htmlDate
Same as htmlDate, but with a timezone.
htmlDate (now) "UTC"
