year

Details #

year(time?) takes zero or one argument and returns a number: four digits, such as 2026.

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. {{ year(text?) }}

Examples #

year()

year(1000000000)

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

Gotchas #

• Anything that isn't a number is an error: year() 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.
