How to get the current Unix epoch time (duration since epoch) in Rust

Answer 1

use std::time::{SystemTime, UNIX_EPOCH};

fn main() {
    let start = SystemTime::now();
    
    let since_the_epoch = start
            .duration_since(UNIX_EPOCH)
            .expect("Time went backwards");
            
    println!("The current Unix epoch time is: {:?}", since_the_epoch);
}



  
/*

The current Unix epoch time is: 1726818618.942252577s
