If I understood you correctly, you want to get unix timestamp format? If that's the case just append ->timestamp like Carbon::createFromTimestampUTC($scheduleTimestamp)->timestamp; – Fluor

Change ->toTimeString() to ->format('s') – Secundines

@hopesfall he wants it in Carbon format used by laravel – Secundines

Answer 1

well, its there in carbon itself just use secondsSinceMidnight() and you are good to go.

 $scheduleTimeSeconds = Carbon::createFromTimestampUTC($scheduleTimestamp)->secondsSinceMidnight();

Answer 2

you could use

$scheduleTime =\Carbon\Carbon::createFromTimestampUTC($scheduleTimestamp)->diffInMinutes()

to display the time in minute or

$scheduleTime =\Carbon\Carbon::createFromTimestampUTC($scheduleTimestamp)->diffInSeconds() 

to display it in second

Answer 3

private function convertTimeToSecond(string $time): int
{
    $d = explode(':', $time);
    return ($d[0] * 3600) + ($d[1] * 60) + $d[2];
}

Answer 4

You can try this it will return only the seconds

$scheduleTime =\Carbon\Carbon::createFromTimestampUTC($scheduleTimestamp)->second; or

$scheduleTime =\Carbon\Carbon::createFromTimestampUTC($scheduleTimestamp)-> diffInSeconds();

Answer 5

Try this,

$scheduleTime = Carbon::createFromTimestampUTC($scheduleTimestamp)->toTimeString();

$sec = preg_replace("/^([\d]{1,2})\:([\d]{2})$/", "00:$1:$2", $scheduleTime);

sscanf($sec, "%d:%d:%d", $hours, $minutes, $seconds);

$time_seconds = $hours * 3600 + $minutes * 60 + $seconds;
