First, the problem
Using PostgreSQL to get the current system time stamp. As we all know, in MySQL like this:
select UNIX_TIMESTAMP(NOW())
Second, the solution
(1) to the nearest second
select floor(extract(epoch from now())); 结果:"1574826646"
(2) accurate to fractions of a second
select extract(epoch from now());结果:"1574826646.79929"
(3) to the millisecond:
select floor(extract(epoch from((current_timestamp - timestamp '1970-01-01 00:00:00')*1000)));
