function dateToHowManyAgo(stringDate){

我用js和python写了一个，在两个项目中使用，非常漂亮和简单:一个简单的库(少于2kb)，用于*** time ago语句格式化日期。

简单，小巧，易于使用，并且经过良好测试。

NPM安装timeago.js 从timeago.js导入timeago;//或使用脚本标签 使用API格式。

示例:

var timeagoIns  = timeago();
timeagoIns .format('2016-06-12');

你也可以实时渲染。

var timeagoIns = timeago();
timeagoIns.render(document.querySelectorAll('time'));

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); } } }

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();
            }
        }

function timeSince(date) { var seconds = Math.floor((new Date() - date) / 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"; } var aDay = 24*60*60*1000; console.log(timeSince(new Date(Date.now()-aDay))); console.log(timeSince(new Date(Date.now()-aDay*2)));

我的尝试是基于其他的答案。

function timeSince(date) {
    let minute = 60;
    let hour   = minute * 60;
    let day    = hour   * 24;
    let month  = day    * 30;
    let year   = day    * 365;

    let suffix = ' ago';

    let elapsed = Math.floor((Date.now() - date) / 1000);

    if (elapsed < minute) {
        return 'just now';
    }

    // get an array in the form of [number, string]
    let a = elapsed < hour  && [Math.floor(elapsed / minute), 'minute'] ||
            elapsed < day   && [Math.floor(elapsed / hour), 'hour']     ||
            elapsed < month && [Math.floor(elapsed / day), 'day']       ||
            elapsed < year  && [Math.floor(elapsed / month), 'month']   ||
            [Math.floor(elapsed / year), 'year'];

    // pluralise and append suffix
    return a[0] + ' ' + a[1] + (a[0] === 1 ? '' : 's') + suffix;
}
