Date
JavaScript Date objects represent a single moment in time in a platform-independent format.
Date.now()
The Date.now() static method returns the number of milliseconds elapsed since the epoch, which is defined as the midnight at the beginning of January 1, 1970, UTC.
Date.parse()
The Date.parse() static method parses a string representation of a date, and returns the date's timestamp.
Date.prototype.getDate()
The getDate() method of Date instances returns the day of the month for this date according to local time.
Date.prototype.getDay()
The getDay() method of Date instances returns the day of the week for this date according to local time, where 0 represents Sunday.
Date.prototype.getMonth()
The getMonth() method of Date instances returns the month for this date according to local time, as a zero-based value (where zero indicates the first month of the year).
Date.prototype.getTime()
The getTime() method of Date instances returns the number of milliseconds for this date since the epoch, which is defined as the midnight at the beginning of January 1, 1970, UTC.
Date.prototype.getTimezoneOffset()
The getTimezoneOffset() method of Date instances returns the difference, in minutes, between this date as evaluated in the UTC time zone, and the same date as evaluated in the local time zone.
Date.prototype.getUTCDate()
The getUTCDate() method of Date instances returns the day of the month for this date according to universal time.
Date.prototype.getUTCDay()
The getUTCDay() method of Date instances returns the day of the week for this date according to universal time, where 0 represents Sunday.
Date.prototype.getUTCMonth()
The getUTCMonth() method of Date instances returns the month for this date according to universal time, as a zero-based value (where zero indicates the first month of the year).
Date.prototype.setDate()
The setDate() method of Date instances changes the day of the month for this date according to local time.
Date.prototype.setFullYear()
The setFullYear() method of Date instances changes the year, month, and/or day of month for this date according to local time.
Date.prototype.setHours()
The setHours() method of Date instances changes the hours, minutes, seconds, and/or milliseconds for this date according to local time.
date_i18n()
date_i18n(): Retrieves the date in localized format, based on a sum of Unix timestamp and timezone offset in seconds.
date_parse_from_format()
date_parse_from_format() — Get info about given date formatted according to the specified format.
Dead Letter Queue
A separate queue for messages that fail normal delivery or processing under a defined policy.
Deadline Propagation
Passing a request's time limit downstream so dependent operations respect the caller's remaining time.
dead_db()
dead_db(): Loads custom DB error or display WordPress DB error.
Debounce
Debouncing, in the context of programming, means to discard operations that occur too close together during a specific interval, and consolidate them into a single invocation.
debug_zval_dump()
debug_zval_dump() — Dumps a string representation of an internal zval structure to output.
decodeURI()
The decodeURI() function decodes a Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) previously created by encodeURI() or a similar routine.
decodeURIComponent()
The decodeURIComponent() function decodes a Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) component previously created by encodeURIComponent() or by a similar routine.
Decorrelated Jitter
A randomized backoff strategy that derives each retry delay from the previous delay within configured bounds.
Decryption
In cryptography, decryption is the conversion of ciphertext into plaintext.
Deep copy
A deep copy of an object is a copy whose properties do not share the same references (point to the same underlying values) as those of the source object from which the copy was made.
Deep equality
Deep equality is a comparison of compound values, such as objects or arrays, that compares their contents recursively.
