Description

The ToMicros function converts a value to the number of microseconds since Unix epoch (midnight, January 1, 1970), if possible.

Attempting to convert a value to a number of microseconds which has no numeric representation results in an "invalid argument" error.

Parameters

Parameter Type Definition and Requirements

value

Any

The value to attempt to convert to a number of microseconds since Unix epoch.

If you provide a Number, it is interpreted as the number of microseconds since Unix epoch.

Returns

A Number representing the number of microseconds since Unix epoch.

Examples

The following query calls ToMicros twice:

  1. To convert 1 second after Unix epoch into microseconds.

  2. To convert the current transaction time into microseconds.

try
{
    Value result = await client.Query(
        Arr(
            ToMicros(Epoch(1, "second")),
            ToMicros(Time("2020-07-06T12:34:56.789Z"))
        )
    );

    Console.WriteLine(result);
}
catch (Exception e)
{
    Console.WriteLine($"ERROR: {e.Message}");
}

		f.ToMicros(f.Time("2020-07-06T12:34:56.789Z")),
	})

	fmt.Fprintln(os.Stderr, err)
