以上答案适用于旧的java脚本。但它在新的EC6 JavaScript或TypeScript上运行得不太好。下面是一个非常简短和简单的函数，用于最新的JavaScript, TypeScript, AngularJs, ReactJs和NodeJs，根据给定的日期和时间返回时间。

  public timeAgo(date) {
    var seconds = Math.floor((new Date().getTime() - new Date(date).getTime()) / 1000);
    var interval = seconds / 31536000;
    if (interval > 1) return Math.floor(interval) + " years";
    interval = seconds / 2592000;
    if (interval > 1) return Math.floor(interval) + " months";
    interval = seconds / 86400;
    if (interval > 1) return Math.floor(interval) + " days";
    interval = seconds / 3600;
    if (interval > 1) return Math.floor(interval) + " hours";
    interval = seconds / 60;
    if (interval > 1) return Math.floor(interval) + " minutes";
    return Math.floor(seconds) + " seconds";
  }

console.log(timeAgo('2022-08-12 20:50:20'));
// 2 hours ago, as per the given date time string.

这是对国际的另一种看法。RelativeTimeFormat

支持过去日期和将来日期 同时接受字符串和日期 易于添加自定义范围(编辑范围) 可以很容易地翻译为Intl.RelativeTimeFormat('ua')

console.log(timeAgo('2021-08-09T15:29:01+0000')); function timeAgo(input) { const date = (input instanceof Date) ? input : new Date(input); const formatter = new Intl.RelativeTimeFormat('en'); const ranges = { years: 3600 * 24 * 365, months: 3600 * 24 * 30, weeks: 3600 * 24 * 7, days: 3600 * 24, hours: 3600, minutes: 60, seconds: 1 }; const secondsElapsed = (date.getTime() - Date.now()) / 1000; for (let key in ranges) { if (ranges[key] < Math.abs(secondsElapsed)) { const delta = secondsElapsed / ranges[key]; return formatter.format(Math.round(delta), key); } } }

Lokely使用的一个简短版本:

const intervals = [
  { label: 'year', seconds: 31536000 },
  { label: 'month', seconds: 2592000 },
  { label: 'day', seconds: 86400 },
  { label: 'hour', seconds: 3600 },
  { label: 'minute', seconds: 60 },
  { label: 'second', seconds: 1 }
];

function timeSince(date) {
  const seconds = Math.floor((Date.now() - date.getTime()) / 1000);
  const interval = intervals.find(i => i.seconds < seconds);
  const count = Math.floor(seconds / interval.seconds);
  return `${count} ${interval.label}${count !== 1 ? 's' : ''} ago`;
}

这将显示你过去和以前的时间格式，如“2天前”“从现在开始10分钟”，你可以传递给它一个日期对象，数字时间戳或日期字符串

function time_ago(time) { switch (typeof time) { case 'number': break; case 'string': time = +new Date(time); break; case 'object': if (time.constructor === Date) time = time.getTime(); break; default: time = +new Date(); } var time_formats = [ [60, 'seconds', 1], // 60 [120, '1 minute ago', '1 minute from now'], // 60*2 [3600, 'minutes', 60], // 60*60, 60 [7200, '1 hour ago', '1 hour from now'], // 60*60*2 [86400, 'hours', 3600], // 60*60*24, 60*60 [172800, 'Yesterday', 'Tomorrow'], // 60*60*24*2 [604800, 'days', 86400], // 60*60*24*7, 60*60*24 [1209600, 'Last week', 'Next week'], // 60*60*24*7*4*2 [2419200, 'weeks', 604800], // 60*60*24*7*4, 60*60*24*7 [4838400, 'Last month', 'Next month'], // 60*60*24*7*4*2 [29030400, 'months', 2419200], // 60*60*24*7*4*12, 60*60*24*7*4 [58060800, 'Last year', 'Next year'], // 60*60*24*7*4*12*2 [2903040000, 'years', 29030400], // 60*60*24*7*4*12*100, 60*60*24*7*4*12 [5806080000, 'Last century', 'Next century'], // 60*60*24*7*4*12*100*2 [58060800000, 'centuries', 2903040000] // 60*60*24*7*4*12*100*20, 60*60*24*7*4*12*100 ]; var seconds = (+new Date() - time) / 1000, token = 'ago', list_choice = 1; if (seconds == 0) { return 'Just now' } if (seconds < 0) { seconds = Math.abs(seconds); token = 'from now'; list_choice = 2; } var i = 0, format; while (format = time_formats[i++]) if (seconds < format[0]) { if (typeof format[2] == 'string') return format[list_choice]; else return Math.floor(seconds / format[2]) + ' ' + format[1] + ' ' + token; } return time; } var aDay = 24 * 60 * 60 * 1000; console.log(time_ago(new Date(Date.now() - aDay))); console.log(time_ago(new Date(Date.now() - aDay * 2)));

您可能需要查看humanized_time_span: https://github.com/layam/js_humanized_time_span

它与框架无关，并且完全可定制。

只需下载/包含脚本，然后你可以这样做:

humanized_time_span("2011-05-11 12:00:00")  
   => '3 hours ago'

humanized_time_span("2011-05-11 12:00:00", "2011-05-11 16:00:00)  
   => '4 hours ago'

甚至是这样:

var custom_date_formats = {
  past: [
    { ceiling: 60, text: "less than a minute ago" },
    { ceiling: 86400, text: "$hours hours, $minutes minutes and $seconds seconds ago" },
    { ceiling: null, text: "$years years ago" }
  ],
  future: [
    { ceiling: 60, text: "in less than a minute" },
    { ceiling: 86400, text: "in $hours hours, $minutes minutes and $seconds seconds time" },
    { ceiling: null, text: "in $years years" }
  ]
}

humanized_time_span("2010/09/10 10:00:00", "2010/09/10 10:00:05", custom_date_formats) 
  => "less than a minute ago"

我们可以将这个包用于javascript时间之前

 
// Load locale-specific relative date/time formatting rules.
import en from 'javascript-time-ago/locale/en'
 
// Add locale-specific relative date/time formatting rules.
TimeAgo.addLocale(en)
 
// Create relative date/time formatter.
const timeAgo = new TimeAgo('en-US')
 
timeAgo.format(new Date())
// "just now"
 
timeAgo.format(Date.now() - 60 * 1000)
// "a minute ago"
 
timeAgo.format(Date.now() - 2 * 60 * 60 * 1000)
// "2 hours ago"
 
timeAgo.format(Date.now() - 24 * 60 * 60 * 1000)
// "a day ago"
