Are we able to create scripted field to fetch current date timestamp value. in milliseconds

My requirement compare the field DATE1 & current date and if the difference is more than 10 mins then have to change the color of the row.

I created the scripted field for the field DATE1 like doc[DATE1].value which returns in milliSeconds

If i get the the same milliSeconds format for the Current datetime in milli second format then i can find the difference i hope

Are you writing a plugin?

I suppose I am not following how creating a scripted field would allow you to change the color of the row.
