seconds

Use this package to easily convert various time formats to seconds. This package was forked from zeit/ms

Examples

seconds('2 days')  // 172800
seconds('1d')      // 86400
seconds('10h')     // 36000
seconds('2.5 hrs') // 9000
seconds('2h')      // 7200
seconds('1m')      // 60
seconds('5s')      // 5
seconds('1y')      // 31557600
seconds('100')     // 100

Convert from milliseconds

seconds(60)                   // "1m"
seconds(2 * 60)               // "2m"
seconds(seconds('10 hours'))  // "10h"

Time format written-out

seconds(60, { long: true })                   // "1 minute"
seconds(2 * 60, { long: true })               // "2 minutes"
seconds(seconds('10 hours'), { long: true })  // "10 hours"

Features

• Works both in node and in the browser.
• If a number is supplied to seconds, a string with a unit is returned.
• If a string that contains the number is supplied, it returns it as a number (e.g.: it returns 100 for '100').
• If you pass a string with a number and a valid unit, the number of equivalent seconds is returned.

Caught a bug?

1. Fork this repository to your own GitHub account and then clone it to your local device
2. Link the package to the global module directory: npm link
3. Within the module you want to test your local development instance of seconds, just link it to the dependencies: npm link @makenova/seconds. Instead of the default one from npm, node will now use your clone of seconds!

As always, you can run the tests using: npm test
