<h2>API Project: Timestamp Microservice</h2>
<h3>User Stories :</h3>
<ol class="user-stories">
<li>The API endpoint is <code>GET [project_url]/api/timestamp/:date_string?</code></li>
<li>A date string is valid if can be successfully parsed by <code>new Date(date_string)</code>.<br>
Note that the unix timestamp needs to be an <strong>integer</strong> (not a string) specifying <strong>milliseconds</strong>.<br>
In our test we will use date strings compliant with ISO-8601 (e.g. <code>"2016-11-20"</code>) because this will ensure an UTC timestamp.</li>
<li>If the date string is <strong>empty</strong> it should be equivalent to trigger <code>new Date()</code>, i.e. the service uses the current timestamp.</li>
<li>If the date string is <strong>valid</strong> the api returns a JSON having the structure<br><code>{"unix": &lt;date.getTime()&gt;, "utc" : &lt;date.toUTCString()&gt; }</code><br>
e.g. <code>{"unix": 1479663089000 ,"utc": "Sun, 20 Nov 2016 17:31:29 GMT"}</code></li>
<li>If the date string is <strong>invalid</strong> the api returns a JSON having the structure <br>
<code>{"unix": null, "utc" : "Invalid Date" }</code>. It is what you get from the date manipulation functions used above.
</li>
</ol>
<h3>Example Usage:</h3>
<ul>
<li>
<code>GET [project url]/api/timestamp/2015-12-25</code></li>
<li><code>GET project url]/api/timestamp/1450137600</code></li>
</ul>
<h3>Example Output:</h3>
<p>
<code>{"unix":1451001600000, "utc":"Fri, 25 Dec 2015 00:00:00 GMT"}</code>
