$date.unixTime() -> number
Description
Get the current Unix timestamp (seconds since January 1st, 1970 at 00:00:00 UTC) of this Date object.
This is a timezone-independent way of representing a moment in time, that can be stored in database tables and easily compared with other times.
$date = Date.create('3 days ago')
$date.unixTime()
//= 1627602121
You can also call unixTime directly on the Date module to get the current timestamp.
Date.unixTime() //= 1627662156
