简单易读版本:

const relativeTimePeriods = [
    [31536000, 'year'],
    [2419200, 'month'],
    [604800, 'week'],
    [86400, 'day'],
    [3600, 'hour'],
    [60, 'minute'],
    [1, 'second']
];

function relativeTime(date, isUtc=true) {
    if (!(date instanceof Date)) date = new Date(date * 1000);
    const seconds = (new Date() - date) / 1000;
    for (let [secondsPer, name] of relativeTimePeriods) {
        if (seconds >= secondsPer) {
            const amount = Math.floor(seconds / secondsPer);
            return `${amount} ${name}${amount ? 's' : ''}s ago`;
        }
    }
    return 'Just now';
}

以下是对Sky Sander的解决方案的轻微修改，允许日期作为字符串输入，并能够显示像“1分钟”而不是“73秒”这样的跨度

var timeSince = function(date) { if (typeof date !== 'object') { date = new Date(date); } var seconds = Math.floor((new Date() - date) / 1000); var intervalType; var interval = Math.floor(seconds / 31536000); if (interval >= 1) { intervalType = 'year'; } else { interval = Math.floor(seconds / 2592000); if (interval >= 1) { intervalType = 'month'; } else { interval = Math.floor(seconds / 86400); if (interval >= 1) { intervalType = 'day'; } else { interval = Math.floor(seconds / 3600); if (interval >= 1) { intervalType = "hour"; } else { interval = Math.floor(seconds / 60); if (interval >= 1) { intervalType = "minute"; } else { interval = seconds; intervalType = "second"; } } } } } if (interval > 1 || interval === 0) { intervalType += 's'; } return interval + ' ' + intervalType; }; var aDay = 24 * 60 * 60 * 1000; console.log(timeSince(new Date(Date.now() - aDay))); console.log(timeSince(new Date(Date.now() - aDay * 2)));

这是一个简化版的@sky-sanders的回答。

function timeSince(date) {

  var seconds = Math.floor((new Date() - date) / 1000);
  var divisors = [31536000, 2592000, 86400, 3600, 60, 1]
  var description = ["years", "months", "days", "hours", "minutes", "seconds"]
  var result = [];

  var interval = seconds;

  for (i = 0; i < divisors.length; i++) {
    interval = Math.floor(seconds / divisors[i])
    if (interval > 1) {
      result.push(interval + " " + description[i])
    }
    seconds -= interval * divisors[i]
  }

  return result.join(" ")
}

这应该正确地处理任何有效的时间戳，包括Date.now()、单数单位和未来日期。我漏掉了月份，但是这些月份应该很容易加进去。我尽量保持它的可读性。

function getTimeInterval(date) { let seconds = Math.floor((Date.now() - date) / 1000); let unit = "second"; let direction = "ago"; if (seconds < 0) { seconds = -seconds; direction = "from now"; } let value = seconds; if (seconds >= 31536000) { value = Math.floor(seconds / 31536000); unit = "year"; } else if (seconds >= 86400) { value = Math.floor(seconds / 86400); unit = "day"; } else if (seconds >= 3600) { value = Math.floor(seconds / 3600); unit = "hour"; } else if (seconds >= 60) { value = Math.floor(seconds / 60); unit = "minute"; } if (value != 1) unit = unit + "s"; return value + " " + unit + " " + direction; } console.log(getTimeInterval(Date.now())); // 0 seconds ago console.log(getTimeInterval(Date.now() + 1000)); // 1 second from now console.log(getTimeInterval(Date.now() - 1000)); // 1 second ago console.log(getTimeInterval(Date.now() + 60000)); // 1 minute from now console.log(getTimeInterval(Date.now() - 120000)); // 2 minutes ago console.log(getTimeInterval(Date.now() + 120000)); // 2 minutes from now console.log(getTimeInterval(Date.now() + 3600000)); // 1 hour from now console.log(getTimeInterval(Date.now() + 360000000000)); // 11 years from now console.log(getTimeInterval(0)); // 49 years ago

回复@Stas Parshin的答案，这是最好的答案，代码更少，但它在与typescript一起使用时有bug, Intl的.format函数需要2个输入

number, Units - i.e of type 'RelativeTimeFormatUnit' so if you pass a object key typescript will through error saying unit must be of type RelativeTimeFormatUnit and not of type string, so the work-around for this is to use the type to make another list of same type and rest you can have look at code... Happy coding. 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 }; type RelativeTimeFormatUnit = | "year" | "years" | "quarter" | "quarters" | "month" | "months" | "week" | "weeks" | "day" | "days" | "hour" | "hours" | "minute" | "minutes" | "second" | "seconds" ; const units: RelativeTimeFormatUnit[] = ["years", "months", "weeks", "days", "hours", "minutes", "seconds"]; // order matters here. const secondsElapsed = (date.getTime() - Date.now()) / 1000; for (let key in ranges) { let i = 0; if (ranges[key] < Math.abs(secondsElapsed)) { const delta = secondsElapsed / ranges[key]; return formatter.format(Math.round(delta), units[i++]); } } }

function calDateAgo(dString=null){
    //var dString = "2021-04-1 12:00:00";
     
    var d1 = new Date(dString);
    var d2 = new Date();
    var t2 = d2.getTime();

    time_obj.month = (d2M+12*d2Y)-(d1M+12*d1Y);
    time_obj.week = parseInt((t2-t1)/(24*3600*1000*7));
    time_obj.day = parseInt((t2-t1)/(24*3600*1000));
    time_obj.hour = parseInt((t2-t1)/(3600*1000));
    time_obj.minute = parseInt((t2-t1)/(60*1000));
    time_obj.second = parseInt((t2-t1)/(1000));

    for (const obj_key in time_obj) {
        if(time_obj[obj_key] == 0){
            delete time_obj[obj_key];
        }
    }
    var ago_text = 'just now';

    if(typeof Object.keys(time_obj)[0] != 'undefined'){
        var time_key = Object.keys(time_obj)[0];
        var time_val = time_obj[Object.keys(time_obj)[0]];
        time_key += (time_val > 1) ? 's':'';
        ago_text = time_val+' '+time_key+' ago'; 
    }
    
    return ago_text;
