This is exactly why I love PowerShell.
Need the [DateTime] object from 10 years ago? No biggie, just chuck
(Get-Date).AddYears(-10)
down your console.Need it in a specific timezone? That one’s trickier, but since PowerShell can do .Net, run this:
$TargetDateTime = (Get-Date).AddYears(-10) $TargetTimeZone = "India Standard Time" $tz = [TimeZoneInfo]::FindSystemTimeZoneById($TargetTimeZone) $utcOffset = $tz.GetUtcOffset($TargetDateTime) [DateTimeOffset]::new($TargetDateTime.Ticks, $utcOffset)
And you get a DateTimeOffset object, which is this beauty:
DateTime : 25/08/2015 23:15:14 UtcDateTime : 25/08/2015 17:45:14 LocalDateTime : 25/08/2015 19:45:14 Date : 25/08/2015 00:00:00 Day : 25 DayOfWeek : Tuesday DayOfYear : 237 Hour : 23 Millisecond : 421 Microsecond : 428 Nanosecond : 600 Minute : 15 Month : 8 Offset : 05:30:00 TotalOffsetMinutes : 330 Second : 14 Ticks : 635761413144214286 UtcTicks : 635761215144214286 TimeOfDay : 23:15:14.4214286 Year : 2015
DateTime
is the time in your target timezone,UtcDateTime
is, well, the UTC time, andLocalDateTime
is the time on host you ran the commands on.
