uint64timestamp

Timestamp fitted into uint64. There are two different versions: Base10 which is for humans and more binary packed Base2.

	Base10	Base2
Accuracy	microseconds (tens (10))	nanoseconds (hundreds (100))

Base10 - human parsable

See pkg/base10 for details.

Example: 2023051514142573247 is 2023-05-15 14:14:25.73247

now := time.Now()

bin, err := base10.TimeToUint64(now)
if err != nil {
    panic(err)
}

humanTime, err := base10.Uint64ToTime(bin, now.Location())
if err != nil {
    panic(err)
}

Base2 - binary

See pkg/base2 for details.

Example: 2278081318148840948 is 2023-05-15 14:14:25.732479

now := time.Now()

bin, err := base2.TimeToUint64(now)
if err != nil {
    panic(err)
}

binTime, err := base2.Uint64ToTime(bin, now.Location())
if err != nil {
    panic(err)
}
