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)));

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.

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();
            }
        }

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++]); } } }

虽然这个问题是很久以前问过的，但写下这个答案希望它能帮助到一些人。

传递您想要开始计数的日期。使用momentjs的moment().fromNow():(在这里查看更多信息)

getRelativeTime(date) {
    const d = new Date(date * 1000);
    return moment(d).fromNow();
}

如果您想更改日期fromNow提供的信息，请编写自定义相对时间为时刻。

例如，在我自己的例子中，我想打印'one month ago'而不是'a month ago'(由moment(d). fromnow()提供)。在这种情况下，你可以写出下面给出的内容。

moment.updateLocale('en', {
    relativeTime: {
        future: 'in %s',
        past: '%s ago',
        s: 'a few seconds',
        ss: '%d seconds',
        m: '1 m',
        mm: '%d minutes',
        h: '1 h',
        hh: '%d hours',
        d: '1 d',
        dd: '%d days',
        M: '1 month',
        MM: '%d months',
        y: '1 y',
        yy: '%d years'
    }
});

注意:我是在Angular 6中为项目编写代码的

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。
