```

## Usage

```js
const timestamp = require('time-stamp');

console.log(timestamp());
//=> 2018-10-26

console.log(timestamp.utc());

```

## Customizing the timestamp

You may also pass a string to format the generated timestamp.

* `MM`: month (ex: **04**)
* `DD`: day (ex: **01**)
* `HH`: hours (ex: **12**)
* `mm`: minutes (ex: **59**)
* `ss`: seconds (ex: **09**)
* `ms`: milliseconds (ex: **532**)

```js
console.log(timestamp('YYYYMMDD'));
//=> 20181026
console.log(timestamp.utc('YYYYMMDD'));
//=> 20181026

console.log(timestamp('YYYYMMDD:ss'));
//=> 20181026:24
