Hi Mz, Output from your uint64 is seconds.
I have been there, just use a javascript Date() object and feed it seconds * 1000 as it ticks in milliseconds. Here is a routine I used in a project recently to enlighten. _dateString: function (seconds) { let desktopSettings = new Gio.Settings({ schema: 'org.gnome.desktop.interface' }); let timeFormat = desktopSettings.get_string(CLOCK_FORMAT_KEY); let currentTime = new Date(); let modificationTime = new Date(seconds * 1000); let dayString = ""; let i1day = 86400000; let i2days = 2 * i1day; let i7days = 7 * i1day; let dateFormat; if ((currentTime.getTime() - modificationTime.getTime()) > i7days) { // set abbriviated date string dateFormat = _("%m-%e-%y"); } else if (((currentTime.getTime()-modificationTime.getTime())>i2days) && ((currentTime.getTime() - modificationTime.getTime()) < i7days)) { // set weekday string dateFormat = _("%A"); } else if (((currentTime.getTime() - modificationTime.getTime())> i1day) && ((currentTime.getTime()-modificationTime.getTime()) <i2days)) { // set day string and time string dayString = _("Yesterday at "); dateFormat = (timeFormat == '24h') ? _("%R") : _("%I:%M %p"); } else if ((currentTime.getTime() - modificationTime.getTime()) < i1day) { // set day string and time string dateFormat = (timeFormat == '24h') ? _("%R") : _("%I:%M %p"); } return (dayString + modificationTime.toLocaleFormat(dateFormat)); }, -- (o_ //\ Regards, Groeten, V_/_ Bas Burger.
