Check whether a timestamp is 1 hour old - Groovy - datetime

I have a timestamp (submitTime) which I need to check whether it is less than 1 hour old or not. Timestamps are in microseconds and including date.
currentTime = 1527530605357000000 (Monday, May 28, 2018 6:03:25.357 PM)
submitTime = 1527529918658907821 (Monday, May 28, 2018 5:51:58.659 PM)
long currentTime = (long) (new Date().getTime()*1000000)
submitTime = job.SubmitTime // part of the code
oneHhour = 3600000000
if (currentTime - submitTime > oneHhour) {
println job.Name + " env is up more than 1 hour";
But it doesn't work since the result is 686698092179 and it it not represent time.
Help?

Assuming SubmitTime is a timestamp in microseconds, you can compare it the the current timestamp in microseconds like so:
// Get the current time (System.currentTimeMillis) in microseconds:
long currentMicroseconds = TimeUnit.MILLISECONDS.toMicros(System.currentTimeMillis())
// You could also simply do this:
long currentMicroseconds = System.currentTimeMillis() * 1000
// Subtract the timestamps and compare:
if (currentMicroseconds - job.SubmitTime > 3600000000) {
// More than an hour has elapsed
}
The timestamp is assumed to be the number of microseconds since January 1, 1970, 00:00:00 GMT (consistent with Date.getTime).

In groovy you can use TimeCategory which is much more intuitive:
def date = new Date(timestampInLong)
use (groovy.time.TimeCategory) {
println (date > new Date() - 1.hour)
}

What does NNN mean in date format <YYMMDDhhmmssNNN><C|D|G|H>?

hi I has date format and I want converted to correct GMT date :
<YYMMDDhhmmssNNN><C|D|G|H>
Sample value on that date:
210204215026000C
I get this explanation for part NNN :
NNN If flag is C or D then NNN is the number of hours relativeto GMT,
if flag is G or H, NNN is the number of quarter hours relative to GMT
C|D|G|H C and G = Ahead of GMT, D and H = Behind GMT
but I did not get how number of hours relative to GMT can present on 3 digits ? it should be in 2 digit as i knew the offset for hours related to GMT is from 0 to 23 , and also what quarter hours relative to GMT mean ?
I want to use Scala or Java.
I don’t know why they set 3 digits aside for the offset. I agree with you that 2 digits suffice for all cases. Maybe they just wanted to be very sure they would never run of out space, and maybe they even overdid this a bit. 3 digits is not a problem as long as the actual values are within the range that java.time.ZoneOffset can handle, +/-18 hours. In your example NNN is 000, so 0 hours from GMT, which certainly is OK and trivial to handle.
A quarter hour is a quarter of an hour. As Salman A mentioned in a comment, 22 quarter hours ahead of Greenwich means an offset of +05:30, currently used in Sri Lanka and India. If the producer of the string wants to use this option, they can give numbers up to 72 (still comfortably within 2 digits). 18 * 4 = 72, so 18 hours equals 72 quarter hours. To imagine a situation where 2 digits would be too little, think an offset of 25 hours. I wouldn’t think it realistic, on the other hand no one can guarantee that it will never happen.
Java solution: how to parse and convert to GMT time
I am using these constants:
private static final Pattern DATE_PATTERN
= Pattern.compile("(\\d{12})(\\d{3})(\\w)");
private static final DateTimeFormatter FORMATTER
= DateTimeFormatter.ofPattern("uuMMddHHmmss");
private static final int SECONDS_IN_A_QUARTER_HOUR
= Math.toIntExact(Duration.ofHours(1).dividedBy(4).getSeconds());
Parse and convert like this:
String sampleValue = "210204215026000C";
Matcher matcher = DATE_PATTERN.matcher(sampleValue);
if (matcher.matches()) {
LocalDateTime ldt = LocalDateTime.parse(matcher.group(1), FORMATTER);
int offsetAmount = Integer.parseInt(matcher.group(2));
char flag = matcher.group(3).charAt(0);
// offset amount denotes either hours or quarter hours
boolean quarterHours = flag == 'G' || flag == 'H';
boolean negative = flag == 'D' || flag == 'H';
if (negative) {
offsetAmount = -offsetAmount;
}
ZoneOffset offset = quarterHours
? ZoneOffset.ofTotalSeconds(offsetAmount * SECONDS_IN_A_QUARTER_HOUR)
: ZoneOffset.ofHours(offsetAmount);
OffsetDateTime dateTime = ldt.atOffset(offset);
OffsetDateTime gmtDateTime = dateTime.withOffsetSameInstant(ZoneOffset.UTC);
System.out.println("GMT time: " + gmtDateTime);
}
else {
System.out.println("Invalid value: " + sampleValue);
}
Output is:
GMT time: 2021-02-04T21:50:26Z
I think my code covers all valid cases. You will probably want to validate that the flag is indeed C, D, G or H, and also handle the potential DateTimeException and NumberFormatException from the parsing and creating the ZoneOffset (NumberFormatException should not happen).

How to parse a timestamp used by PRTG

I have a datetime string this format
44340.5416666667 but i want to convert this to 5/24/2021 3:00:00 PM - 4:00:00 PM format. How can i parse that with golang? I tried some convert function but it didn't work.
According to https://kb.paessler.com/en/topic/1313-how-do-i-translate-prtg-timestamp-values-format-to-normal-time-format, the timestamp format used by PRTG seems to be defined as the value of days since Dec 30, 1899.
Following the above link, the following Go code should convert the timestamp into a Go Time instance:
prtg := 44340.5416666667
// substract number of days between Dec 30, 1899 and Jan 1, 1970 and convert to millis
millis := int64((prtg - 25569) * 86400 * 1000)
t := time.Unix(0, millis*int64(time.Millisecond))
println(t.Format("1/2/2006 03:04:05 PM"))
According to prtg timestamp mentioned in Gregor Zurowski's comment,
convert your time to nano seconds (minimum unit in time to more accurate) and add unix nano of 1899-12-30 12.00 midnight.
re convert it to time and format it as below
package main
import (
"fmt"
"time"
)
func main() {
startDate := time.Date(1899, 12, 30, 0, 0, 0, 0, time.UTC).UnixNano()
timeVar := 44340.5416666667 //your time variable
duration := startDate + int64(float64(24*60*60) * timeVar * 1e9) //duration since start date in nanoseconds
fmt.Println(time.Unix(0, duration).Format("1/2/2006 03:04:05 PM"))
}

MomentJS comparing Unix time with minutes and get difference

I need to find if currentDate time (unix) and lastFetchedTime(unix) is greater than 30 minutes in moment.js.
How can compare the subtracted value from 30 minutes in moment?
lastFetchedTime(unix) is equivalent to the previous Date.now()..
const now = moment(Date.now());
const lastFetched = 1598578706;
const checkTime = now.diff(lastFetched, 'minutes') > 30 ;
You can use momentJS duration function to get the difference between two times which are in unix format.
Firstly, you need to convert the unix format to human readable time and then get the difference of current time and lastFetched time using asMinutes function of duration
If the difference is greater then 30 then do something else or do something else.
Live Demo:
const now = moment().unix()
const lastFetched = 1598597404;
const duration = moment.duration(moment.unix(now).diff(moment.unix(lastFetched)));
const getMinutes = duration.asMinutes();
if (getMinutes > 30) {
console.log('Minutes are GREATER then 30 minutes - from now')
} else {
console.log('Minutes are LESS then 30 minutes - from now')
}

Groovy Time durations

I'm trying to get the difference between 2 dates in days, hours, and seconds:
import groovy.time.*
Date now = new Date()
// Using deprecated constructor just for this example
Date newYearsDay2000 = new Date(2000, 0, 1)
use (TimeCategory) {
now - newYearsDay2000
}
This prints:
-690023 days, -14 hours, -38 minutes, -27.182 seconds
Which is obviously nothing like the difference between today's date and 2000/1/1, where am I going wrong?
Thanks,
Don
Could be an issue with the deprecated constructor?
If you use Calendar (and the Groovy updated method) to create the newYearsDay2000 var, you get:
import groovy.time.*
import static java.util.Calendar.*
Date now = new Date()
// Use the static imported Calendar class
Date newYearsDay2000 = instance.updated( year:2000, month:JANUARY, day:1 ).time
use( TimeCategory ) {
now - newYearsDay2000
}
which gives the result:
3925 days, 23 hours, 59 minutes, 59.999 seconds
Edit
Yeah, the JavaDoc for Date shows that constructor with the comment:
Date(int year, int month, int date)
Deprecated. As of JDK version 1.1, replaced by Calendar.set(year + 1900, month, date) or GregorianCalendar(year + 1900, month, date).
Which leads me to believe that:
Date newYearsDay2000 = new Date(2000, 0, 1)
Is actualy creating the Date for new Years Day in the year 3900
Date
Parameters:
year - the year minus 1900.

Weird flex date issue

Flex is driving me CRAZY and I think it's some weird gotcha with how it handles leap years and none leap years. So here's my example. I have the below dateDiff method that finds the number of days or milliseconds between two dates. If I run the following three statements I get some weird issues.
dateDiff("date", new Date(2010, 0,1), new Date(2010, 0, 31));
dateDiff("date", new Date(2010, 1,1), new Date(2010, 1, 28));
dateDiff("date", new Date(2010, 2,1), new Date(2010, 2, 31));
dateDiff("date", new Date(2010, 3,1), new Date(2010, 3, 30));
If you were to look at the date comparisons above you would expect to get 30, 27, 30, 29 as the number of days between the dates. There weird part is that I get 29 when comparing March 1 to March 31. Why is that? Is it something to do with February only having 28 days? If anyone has ANY input on this that would be greatly appreciated.
public static function dateDiff( datePart:String, startDate:Date, endDate:Date ):Number
{
var _returnValue:Number = 0;
switch (datePart) {
case "milliseconds":
_returnValue = endDate.time - startDate.time;
break;
case "date":
// TODO: Need to figure out DST problem i.e. 23 hours at DST start, 25 at end.
// Math.floor causes rounding down error with DST start at dayOfYear
_returnValue = Math.floor(dateDiff("milliseconds", startDate, endDate)/(1000 * 60 * 60 * 24));
break;
}
return _returnValue;
}
This is not a leap year problem, but rather a daylight savings time problem.
To correct the code to account for DST, you need to look at the timezoneOffset of both dates to determine if the date range is spanning a DST boundary.
var adjustment:Number = ( startDate.timezoneOffset - endDate.timezoneOffset ) * 60 * 1000;
_returnValue = endDate.time - startDate.time + adjustment;
This will get the difference between the two time zones (in minutes), convert that value to milliseconds, and then apply the timezone difference to the millisecond difference to "cancel out" the DST boundary.
Naturally, when both numbers are in the same time zone, the adjustment value becomes 0 and the time values are not adjusted.
You have part of the answer in your comment: 2010-Mar-01 0:00 until 2010-Mar-31 0:00 is thirty (!) days minus one hour (because Mar 14 is DST start in 2010). Since you floor the result of your division, you get 29.
Edit: This answer is of course based on the assumption that the time property of Date takes DST into account. This would explain your problem; I didn't check it, however.
