将毫秒日期转换为正常日期

Question

I got the following format of date from an API:

1468102548

I'm trying to convert this date to a normal human readable format, however I can't get it to work.

Here's what I've tried so far:

$creation_date = "1468102548";

$input1 = $creation_date / 1000;

$newDate_creation_date = date("Y-m-d", $input1); // Output: 1970-01-17 (It's not right)

Answer 1

That timestamp is not in milliseconds so dividing it by 1000 is skewing your date.

$creation_date = new DateTime('@1468102548');
echo $creation_date->format('Y-m-d'); // Outputs 2016-07-09
