[Feature Request] Epcoch/Unix Timestamp option for uptime #2

Open raBEsto opened 3 years ago

Allows for data analysis for grouping times together, i.e, Excel cannot easily group uptime because it is plaintext, having it be in Epcoch/Unix timestamp would be very convenient for data analysis.

@raBEsto Can you elaborate? Currently, the summary API provides startup time as a string and as an unsigned int. Combining "Startup Timestamp" + "Uptime" would result in the uptime from Unix time 0. Is this what you are looking for?

I haven't explored the API itself, but basically I had a group of miners who all had very similar uptimes and wanted to do a pivot table in Excel on the values but without some string manipulation, it's very difficult to do. As for a technician or hobbyist, that's a lot of effort to prepare the data for a small help in diagnosing.

I am trying to get clarification, you want the Uptime to be displayed in seconds only? So just elapsed seconds from start time?
