Convert date in human-readable format to seconds since epoch (1 Jan 1970)
May databases and log files may output timestamp in seconds since 1 Jan 1970 instead of using human-readable format. In such cases convert date to seconds using:
date -d <human-readable-date> +%s
For example:
date -d '1970-01-01 00:00 UTC' +%s date -d '2022-10-15 13:20 IST' +%s
Convert epoch time (seconds since 1 Jan 1970) to human-readable time
To convert epoch time to human readable time use:
date -d @<seconds>
For example:
date -d @1665820200
