使用momentjs很简单:

moment("2016-04-08").fromNow();

假设你有两个Date对象，你可以减去它们，以毫秒为单位得到差值:

var difference = date2 - date1;

从那里，您可以使用简单的算术来推导其他值。

var DateDiff = {
 
    inDays: function(d1, d2) {
        var t2 = d2.getTime();
        var t1 = d1.getTime();
 
        return Math.floor((t2-t1)/(24*3600*1000));
    },
 
    inWeeks: function(d1, d2) {
        var t2 = d2.getTime();
        var t1 = d1.getTime();
 
        return parseInt((t2-t1)/(24*3600*1000*7));
    },
 
    inMonths: function(d1, d2) {
        var d1Y = d1.getFullYear();
        var d2Y = d2.getFullYear();
        var d1M = d1.getMonth();
        var d2M = d2.getMonth();
 
        return (d2M+12*d2Y)-(d1M+12*d1Y);
    },
 
    inYears: function(d1, d2) {
        return d2.getFullYear()-d1.getFullYear();
    }
}
 
var dString = "May, 20, 1984";
 
var d1 = new Date(dString);
var d2 = new Date();
 
document.write("<br />Number of <b>days</b> since "+dString+": "+DateDiff.inDays(d1, d2));
document.write("<br />Number of <b>weeks</b> since "+dString+": "+DateDiff.inWeeks(d1, d2));
document.write("<br />Number of <b>months</b> since "+dString+": "+DateDiff.inMonths(d1, d2));
document.write("<br />Number of <b>years</b> since "+dString+": "+DateDiff.inYears(d1, d2));

代码样本从这里。

这段代码将返回两个日期的差值(以天为单位):

const previous_date = new Date("2019-12-23");
const current_date = new Date();

const current_year = current_date.getFullYear();
const previous_date_year = 
previous_date.getFullYear();

const difference_in_years = current_year - 
previous_date_year;

let months = current_date.getMonth();
months = months + 1; // for making the indexing 
// of months from 1

for(let i = 0; i < difference_in_years; i++){
months = months + 12;
}

let days = current_date.getDate();

days = days + (months * 30.417);

console.log(`The days between ${current_date} and 
${previous_date} are : ${days} (approximately)`);

            // the idea is to get time left for new year.
           // Not considering milliseconds as of now, but that 
           //  can be done
           
            var newYear = '1 Jan 2023';
            const secondsInAMin = 60;
            const secondsInAnHour = 60 * secondsInAMin;
            const secondsInADay = 24 * secondsInAnHour;

            function DateDiffJs() {
                var newYearDate = new Date(newYear);
                var currDate = new Date();

                var remainingSecondsInDateDiff = (newYearDate - currDate) / 1000;
                var days = Math.floor(remainingSecondsInDateDiff / secondsInADay);

                var remainingSecondsAfterDays = remainingSecondsInDateDiff - (days * secondsInADay);
                var hours = Math.floor(remainingSecondsAfterDays / secondsInAnHour);

                var remainingSecondsAfterhours = remainingSecondsAfterDays - (hours * secondsInAnHour);
                var mins = Math.floor(remainingSecondsAfterhours / secondsInAMin);

                var seconds = Math.floor(remainingSecondsAfterhours - (mins * secondsInAMin));


                console.log(`days :: ${days}`)
                console.log(`hours :: ${hours}`)
                console.log(`mins :: ${mins}`)
                console.log(`seconds :: ${seconds}`)

            }

            DateDiffJs();

基于javascript运行时原型实现，您可以使用简单的算术减去日期如下所示

var sep = new Date(2020, 07, 31, 23, 59, 59);
var today = new Date();
var diffD = Math.floor((sep - today) / (1000 * 60 * 60 * 24));
console.log('Day Diff: '+diffD);

差值返回以毫秒为单位的答案，然后你必须通过除法转换它:

按1000换算成秒 通过1000×60转换为分钟 通过1000×60×60转换为小时 通过1000×60×60×24转换为日
