Getting timestamps in deterministic way in Hyperledger Composer transactions

Is there a deterministic way to get timestamp in transaction function, similar to stub.GetTxTimestamp() that can be used in Go version of Fabric's chaincode.

Just sharing an example that works with basic-sample-network network:

In the model file (lib/org.acme.sample.cto) I extended SampleAsset definition any added new property called timestamp of type DateTime:

asset SampleAsset identified by assetId {
  o String assetId
  --> SampleParticipant owner
  o String value
  o DateTime timestamp
}

In the script file (lib/logic.js), the onSampleTransaction function to update SampleAsset's timestamp with current transaction's timestamp:

function onSampleTransaction(sampleTransaction) {
  sampleTransaction.asset.value = sampleTransaction.newValue;
  sampleTransaction.asset.timestamp = sampleTransaction.timestamp;
  return getAssetRegistry('org.acme.sample.SampleAsset')
       .then(function (assetRegistry) {
               return assetRegistry.update(sampleTransaction.asset);
        });
}

All transactions have a system property called timestamp, so you can use myTransaction.timestamp.
