# FreeCodeCamp - Timestamp Microservice

This repository contains a small full-stack Javascript web application.

This was done in order to complete the [timestamp microservice

challenge](http://www.freecodecamp.com/challenges/timestamp-microservice) from

[FreeCodeCamp](http://www.freecodecamp.com).

This repository will return a JSON representation of the unix timestamp and

natural date, given a proper query string to the `/` endpoint.

## Live Version

This application can be found [live on

Heroku](http://still-spire-9161.herokuapp.com/).

## Installation and Startup

To run this application locally, first install the dependencies by running `npm

install` in the root directory of the application.

Then, start the server by running `nodejs server.js`. **Note:** Replace `nodejs`

with `node` if your system's executable is called `node`.

## Usage

The application will parse the query string passed into the `/` endpoint, and

return JSON with a `unix` property and a `natural` property. These properties

represent the unix timestamp and a human-readable date, respectively.

### Example Input

```

https://still-spire-9161.herokuapp.com/December%2015,%202015

https://still-spire-9161.herokuapp.com/1450137600

```

### Example Output

```

{ "unix": 1450137600, "natural": "December 15, 2015" }

```
