Epoch to readable date Problem

I pulled the current epoch value from the Unix_time wikipedia page and then wrote this code...

var offset = 1447841725; // (2015-11-18T10:15:25Z)
Sys.println(offset);

// offset by the local time zone offset because Time.Moment
// considers the parameter to be in the local time zone. this
// is only necessary if the offset value above is specified in
// the UTC time zone. if the value is somehow in your local
// time zone, you can skip this step.
offset -= Sys.getClockTime().timeZoneOffset;

var info = Calendar.info(new Time.Moment(offset), Time.FORMAT_SHORT);

Sys.println(Lang.format("$1$-$2$-$3$T$4$:$5$:$6$Z", [
info.year,
info.month.format("%02d"),
info.day.format("%02d"),
info.hour.format("%02d"),
info.min.format("%02d"),
info.sec.format("%02d") ]));


When I run it, I get this as the output...

Shell Version 0.1.0
1447841725
2015-11-18T10:15:25Z


Which is exactly the time that I expect.

So, from what I can tell, everything on the ConnectIQ side (in the simulator at least) is doing the right thing.

I see the problem. The time value that you are looking at is specified in milliseconds. You need to convert that to seconds.

Unfortunately, it looks like the value returned to you may already be truncated to a 32-bit Number (which you promote to a Long). Once that value is truncated, all is lost. You should try printing the value you get back to see that it matches what you expect to be received or if it is something different. If it is different, you might be looking at a Garmin bug in the JSON parser.

If the value is okay, then you might be able to write var now = (val2["time"].toFloat() / 1000).toNumber(), or something like this...

var val = val2["time"];
val = val.substr(0, val.length() - 3).toNumber();


Thanks

Thanks you travis, actually that was my problem.
and the offset was a extra. thanks, this is my new fixed code.


var epoch=value2["time"].toLong("%d")/1000;
epoch -= Sys.getClockTime().timeZoneOffset;

var info = Calendar.info(new Time.Moment(epoch), Time.FORMAT_SHORT);

var dateStr= Lang.format("$1$-$2$-$3$ $4$:$5$:$6$", [
info.day.format("%02d"),
info.month.format("%02d"),
info.year,
info.hour.format("%02d"),
info.min.format("%02d"),
info.sec.format("%02d") ]);

item.time=dateStr;


Diferent data

when i make the json call, the expected data is 1447859886920 and i recive 1447862861824.000000, that's way i convert the data to long, but yes, i recive a slightly diferent data, i hope garmin fix this bug.

dont work in fenix 3

Whit this modification the date works on the simulator, but when i try in the fenix 3 the system show me a wrong date again =(

I'm curious what type of object being retrieved from the map. What does the following code produce?

var val = val2["time"];
if (val instanceof Lang.String) {
Sys.println("String: " + val);
}
else if (val instanceof Lang.Float) {
Sys.println("Float: " + val);
}
else if (val instanceof Lang.Double) {
Sys.println("Double: " + val);
}
else if (val instanceof Lang.Long) {
Sys.println("Long: " + val);
}
else if (val instanceof Lang.Number) {
Sys.println("Number: " + val);
}
else {
Sys.println("Unknown: " + val);
}

Hi tanks for help me =)

about your doubt you code get a float val.

Float: 1447851065344.000000
Float: 1447335034880.000000
Float: 1447335034880.000000
Float: 1447215366144.000000
Float: 1447152320512.000000
Float: 1447114309632.000000
Float: 1447112081408.000000
Float: 1447089274880.000000


this is the data that the query retrive on the navigator (just whats you say in the tread before about the bug in the json parse.)

"time":1447851115280
"time":1447335027960
"time":1447335015740
"time":1447215419870
"time":1447152375880
"time":1447114247710
"time":1447112117920
"time":1447089273630

If the type is already Lang.Float then you should just have to do...

var offset = (vals2["time"] / 1000).toNumber();
offset -= Sys.getClockTime().timeZoneOffset;


I don't see how there could still be a problem.

not working =(

not working on fenix 3, i don't know why in the simulator i get the right date and in the watch i get a different one.

var epoch= (value2["time"]);
var timeZoneOff=Sys.getClockTime().timeZoneOffset;

var res=(epoch-timeZoneOff)/1000.0;
var now=new Time.Moment(res);

var info = Calendar.info(now, Time.FORMAT_SHORT);

var dateStr = Lang.format("$1$/$2$/$3$", [info.day,info.month, info.year]);
var timeStr = Lang.format("$1$:$2$",[info.hour.format("%2d"), info.min.format("%02d")]);


Sys.println("-------------------------------------------------");

Sys.println("--epoch: "+epoch);
Sys.println("--Off: "+timeZoneOff);
Sys.println("--res ep: "+res);
Sys.println("--now: "+now);
Sys.println("--info: "+info);
Sys.println("--time: "+timeStr);
Sys.println("--hour: "+dateStr);
