day

Returns the day of the month of the current time or of a given unix time.

Keyboard Maestro: DAY

Details #

day(time?) takes zero or one argument and returns a number: 1 to 31.

With no argument it reads the current time. With an argument, which is a unix time in seconds (the kind now and time return), it reads that moment instead. It always uses the Mac's local time zone.

Parameters #

Takes 0 to 1 argument. {{ day(text?) }}

Examples #

day()

→ 15

day(1000000000)

→ 8

day(time(2026, 10, 24, 15, 30))

→ 24

Gotchas #

Anything that isn't a number is an error: day() needs a number, got text.
The time must be in seconds, not milliseconds: a value in milliseconds lands tens of thousands of years in the future.
