DateTime.addTime

Adds a time period to a date/time value. For date and time of day values, time zone is ignored; the arithmetic is done in a zone-less fashion. Additionally, it is an error to add units smaller than a day to date values or units larger than an hour to time of day values.

DateTime.getValue

(Rushscript: dateTimeValue)

Extracts the wanted date or time field from the input value. It is an error to attempt to extract time fields from a date value or date fields from a time of day value.

DateTime.getTextValue

(Rushscript: dateTimeTextValue)

Extracts the wanted date or time field from the input value as human readable text. It is an error to attempt to extract time fields from a date value or date fields from a time of day value.

DateTime.subtractTime

Subtracts a time period from a date/time value. For date and time of day values, time zone is ignored; the arithmetic is done in a zone-less fashion. Additionally, it is an error to add units smaller than a day to date values or units larger than an hour to time of day values.

DateTime.timeDiff

Computes the difference between two date/time values measured in a specified time unit and scale. Both values must be of the same type. When comparing time fields the highest precision is millisecond based whereas when comparing date fields the precision is day based. This means that when using date fields the difference will be based on the calendar intervals versus time fields which will use the more precise astronomical time intervals.

double

DateTime.toMilliseconds

Converts a date/time value into the number milliseconds since the epoch (January 1, 1970, 00:00:00 GMT). As time of day values have no date portion, this value will simply be the number of milliseconds since midnight. For date values, the result represents midnight of the associated day.

DateTime.useDefaultTimeZone

Adjusts a timestamp value to use the default time zone offset.
