我使用了可能11的旧答案，并添加了Intl。用于翻译的RelativeTimeFormat。

https://stackoverflow.com/a/73331658/673809

function timeAgo (value) { const seconds = Math.floor((new Date().getTime() - new Date(value).getTime()) / 1000) let interval = seconds / 31536000 const rtf = new Intl.RelativeTimeFormat("en", { numeric: 'auto' }) if (interval > 1) { return rtf.format(-Math.floor(interval), 'year') } interval = seconds / 2592000 if (interval > 1) { return rtf.format(-Math.floor(interval), 'month') } interval = seconds / 86400 if (interval > 1) { return rtf.format(-Math.floor(interval), 'day') } interval = seconds / 3600 if (interval > 1) { return rtf.format(-Math.floor(interval), 'hour') } interval = seconds / 60 if (interval > 1) { return rtf.format(-Math.floor(interval), 'minute') } return rtf.format(-Math.floor(interval), 'second') } console.log(timeAgo('2022-08-12 20:50:20'))

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); } } }

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

我还没有检查(虽然这并不难)，但我认为Stack Exchange站点使用jquery。Timeago插件来创建这些时间字符串。

这个插件使用起来很简单，而且很干净，还能自动更新。

下面是一个简单的例子(来自插件的主页):

First, load jQuery and the plugin: <script src="jquery.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script> <script src="jquery.timeago.js" type="text/javascript"></script> Now, let's attach it to your timestamps on DOM ready: jQuery(document).ready(function() { jQuery("abbr.timeago").timeago(); }); This will turn all abbr elements with a class of timeago and an ISO 8601 timestamp in the title: <abbr class="timeago" title="2008-07-17T09:24:17Z">July 17, 2008</abbr> into something like this: <abbr class="timeago" title="July 17, 2008">about a year ago</abbr> which yields: about a year ago. As time passes, the timestamps will automatically update.

在这种情况下可能有点过头了，但如果有机会，moment.js真的很棒!

js是一个javascript datetime库，在这种情况下使用它，你需要做:

moment(yourdate).fromNow()

2018附录:Luxon是一个新的现代图书馆，可能值得一看!

2022年附录:Day.js是一个较新的库，比Luxon轻80%左右，具有类似的功能。

我修改了Sky Sanders的版本。Math.floor(…)操作在if块中计算

       var timeSince = function(date) {
            var seconds = Math.floor((new Date() - date) / 1000);
            var months = ["January", "February", "March", "April", "May", "June", "July", "August", "September", "October", "November", "December"];
            if (seconds < 5){
                return "just now";
            }else if (seconds < 60){
                return seconds + " seconds ago";
            }
            else if (seconds < 3600) {
                minutes = Math.floor(seconds/60)
                if(minutes > 1)
                    return minutes + " minutes ago";
                else
                    return "1 minute ago";
            }
            else if (seconds < 86400) {
                hours = Math.floor(seconds/3600)
                if(hours > 1)
                    return hours + " hours ago";
                else
                    return "1 hour ago";
            }
            //2 days and no more
            else if (seconds < 172800) {
                days = Math.floor(seconds/86400)
                if(days > 1)
                    return days + " days ago";
                else
                    return "1 day ago";
            }
            else{

                //return new Date(time).toLocaleDateString();
                return date.getDate().toString() + " " + months[date.getMonth()] + ", " + date.getFullYear();
            }
        }
