How can I display a formatted date from a Unix timestamp in twig?

Question

I would like to display a formatted date in twig by applying a filter to a Unix timestamp. Is such a feature available in twig?

Answer 1

There is a filter called date.

In the following example mydate equals 1286199900:

{{ mydate|date }}           <!-- October 4, 2010 13:45 -->
{{ mydate|date('d/m/Y') }}  <!-- 04/10/2010 -->

Answer 2

If you just divide it by 1000 there might be an error like Failed to parse time string (1384361503.5) at position 7

I would add round function to it

{% set timestamp = (rating.ratingDate / 1000)|round(0, 'floor') %} {{timestamp|date('d. M Y')}}
