is there a way to get unix time from timestamp using date function in unix/
OS: SunOS 5.10
No. Not with the supplied
date command.
Quick alternative solution: You can download and use other software such as the GNU date command (as advised by @Corona688) or the Perl programming language.
The whole process can be programmed in basic Shell code which takes into account leap years (as @netronscott advises), unlike the awk code posted by @vgersh99.

mason::plugin::dollardot
Mason::Plugin::DollarDot(3pm) User Contributed Perl Documentation Mason::Plugin::DollarDot(3pm)
NAME
Mason::Plugin::DollarDot - Allow $. as substitution for $self-> and in attribute names
SYNOPSIS
<%class>
has 'name';
has 'date';
</%class>
<%method greet>
Hello, <% $.name %>. Today is <% $.date %>.
</%method>
...
% $.greet();
<%init>
# Set the date
$.date(scalar(localtime));
# or, if combined with LvalueAttributes
$.date = scalar(localtime);
</%init>
DESCRIPTION
This plugin substitutes "$.identifier" for "$self->identifier" in all Perl code inside components, so that $. can be used when referring to
attributes and calling methods. The actual regex is
s/ $.([^Wd]w*) / $self->$1 /gx;
RATIONALE
In Mason 2, components have to write "$self->" a lot to refer to attributes that were simple scalars in Mason 1. This eases the transition
pain. $. was chosen because of its similar use in Perl 6.
This plugin falls under the heading of gratuitous source filtering, which the author generally agrees is Evil. That said, this is a very
limited filter, and seems unlikely to break any legitimate Perl syntax other than use of the $. special variable (input line number).
BUGS
Will not interpolate as expected inside double quotes:
"My name is $.name" # nope
instead you have to do
"My name is " . $.name
