给定特定的DateTime值,如何显示相对时间,例如:

2小时前3天前一个月前


当前回答

通过在客户端执行此逻辑,可以减少服务器端负载。在一些Digg页面上查看源代码以供参考。它们让服务器发出一个由Javascript处理的历元时间值。这样,您就不需要管理最终用户的时区。新的服务器端代码类似于:

public string GetRelativeTime(DateTime timeStamp)
{
    return string.Format("<script>printdate({0});</script>", timeStamp.ToFileTimeUtc());
}

您甚至可以在那里添加一个NOSCRIPT块,然后执行ToString()。

我是这样做的

var ts = new TimeSpan(DateTime.UtcNow.Ticks - dt.Ticks);
double delta = Math.Abs(ts.TotalSeconds);

if (delta < 60)
{
  return ts.Seconds == 1 ? "one second ago" : ts.Seconds + " seconds ago";
}
if (delta < 60 * 2)
{
  return "a minute ago";
}
if (delta < 45 * 60)
{
  return ts.Minutes + " minutes ago";
}
if (delta < 90 * 60)
{
  return "an hour ago";
}
if (delta < 24 * 60 * 60)
{
  return ts.Hours + " hours ago";
}
if (delta < 48 * 60 * 60)
{
  return "yesterday";
}
if (delta < 30 * 24 * 60 * 60)
{
  return ts.Days + " days ago";
}
if (delta < 12 * 30 * 24 * 60 * 60)
{
  int months = Convert.ToInt32(Math.Floor((double)ts.Days / 30));
  return months <= 1 ? "one month ago" : months + " months ago";
}
int years = Convert.ToInt32(Math.Floor((double)ts.Days / 365));
return years <= 1 ? "one year ago" : years + " years ago";

建议?评论?如何改进此算法?

var ts = new TimeSpan(DateTime.Now.Ticks - dt.Ticks);

文森特接受的答案做出了许多武断的决定。为什么45分钟舍入为一小时,而45秒不舍入为一分钟?在年和月的计算中,它的圈复杂度增加了,这使得遵循逻辑变得更加复杂。它假设TimeSpan是相对于过去(2天前)的,而它很可能是在未来(2天后)。它定义了不必要的常量,而不是使用TimeSpan.TicksPerSecond等。

此实现解决了上述问题,并更新了语法以使用开关表达式和关系模式

/// <summary>

{
    const int daysInWeek = 7;
    const int daysInMonth = 30;
    const int daysInYear = 365;
    const long threshold = 100 * TimeSpan.TicksPerMillisecond;
    @this = @this.TotalSeconds < 0
        ? TimeSpan.FromSeconds(@this.TotalSeconds * -1)
        : @this;
    return (@this.Ticks + threshold) switch
    {
        < 2 * TimeSpan.TicksPerSecond => "a second",
        < 1 * TimeSpan.TicksPerMinute => @this.Seconds + " seconds",

        < 2 * daysInWeek * TimeSpan.TicksPerDay => "a week",

        < 2 * daysInMonth * TimeSpan.TicksPerDay => "a month",
        < 1 * daysInYear * TimeSpan.TicksPerDay => (@this.Days / daysInMonth).ToString("F0") + " months",
        < 2 * daysInYear * TimeSpan.TicksPerDay => "a year",
        _ => (@this.Days / daysInYear).ToString("F0") + " years"
    };
}

可以使用NUnit对其进行如下测试:

[TestCase("a second", 0)]
[TestCase("a second", 1)]
[TestCase("2 seconds", 2)]
[TestCase("a minute", 0, 1)]
[TestCase("5 minutes", 0, 5)]
[TestCase("an hour", 0, 0, 1)]
[TestCase("2 hours", 0, 0, 2)]
[TestCase("a day", 0, 0, 24)]

[TestCase("6 days", 0, 0, 0, 6)]
[TestCase("a week", 0, 0, 0, 7)]
[TestCase("4 weeks", 0, 0, 0, 29)]
[TestCase("a month", 0, 0, 0, 30)]
[TestCase("6 months", 0, 0, 0, 6 * 30)]
[TestCase("a year", 0, 0, 0, 365)]
[TestCase("68 years", int.MaxValue)]
public void NaturalLanguageHelpers_TimeSpan(
    string expected,
    int seconds,
    int minutes = 0,
    int hours = 0,
    int days = 0
)
{
    // Arrange
    TimeSpan timeSpan = new(days, hours, minutes, seconds);

    // Act
    string result = timeSpan.ToNaturalLanguage();

    // Assert
    Assert.That(result, Is.EqualTo(expected));
}

[TestCase("now", 0)]
[TestCase("10 minutes ago", 0, -10)]
[TestCase("10 minutes until", 10, 10)]
[TestCase("68 years until", int.MaxValue)]
[TestCase("68 years ago", int.MinValue)]
public void NaturalLanguageHelpers_DateTime(
    string expected,
    int seconds,
    int minutes = 0,
    int hours = 0,
    int days = 0
)
{
    // Arrange
    TimeSpan timeSpan = new(days, hours, minutes, seconds);
    DateTime now = DateTime.Now;
    DateTime dateTime = now + timeSpan;

    // Act
    string result = dateTime.ToNaturalLanguage();

    // Assert
    Assert.That(result, Is.EqualTo(expected));
}

在Java中有没有一种简单的方法可以做到这一点?java.util.Date类似乎相当有限。

下面是我的快速而肮脏的Java解决方案:

import java.util.Date;
import javax.management.timer.Timer;

String getRelativeDate(Date date) {     
  long delta = new Date().getTime() - date.getTime();
  if (delta < 1L * Timer.ONE_MINUTE) {
    return toSeconds(delta) == 1 ? "one second ago" : toSeconds(delta) + " seconds ago";
  }
  if (delta < 2L * Timer.ONE_MINUTE) {
    return "a minute ago";
  }
  if (delta < 45L * Timer.ONE_MINUTE) {
    return toMinutes(delta) + " minutes ago";
  }
  if (delta < 90L * Timer.ONE_MINUTE) {
    return "an hour ago";
  }
  if (delta < 24L * Timer.ONE_HOUR) {
    return toHours(delta) + " hours ago";
  }
  if (delta < 48L * Timer.ONE_HOUR) {
    return "yesterday";
  }
  if (delta < 30L * Timer.ONE_DAY) {
    return toDays(delta) + " days ago";
  }
  if (delta < 12L * 4L * Timer.ONE_WEEK) { // a month
    long months = toMonths(delta); 
    return months <= 1 ? "one month ago" : months + " months ago";
  }
  else {
    long years = toYears(delta);
    return years <= 1 ? "one year ago" : years + " years ago";
  }
}

private long toSeconds(long date) {
  return date / 1000L;
}

private long toMinutes(long date) {
  return toSeconds(date) / 60L;
}

private long toHours(long date) {
  return toMinutes(date) / 60L;
}

private long toDays(long date) {
  return toHours(date) / 24L;
}

private long toMonths(long date) {
  return toDays(date) / 30L;
}

private long toYears(long date) {
  return toMonths(date) / 365L;
}

以某种方式,您可以使用DateTime函数以秒到年计算相对时间,请尝试以下操作:

using System;

public class Program {
    public static string getRelativeTime(DateTime past) {
        DateTime now = DateTime.Today;
        string rt = "";
        int time;
        string statement = "";
        if (past.Second >= now.Second) {
            if (past.Second - now.Second == 1) {
                rt = "second ago";
            }
            rt = "seconds ago";
            time = past.Second - now.Second;
            statement = "" + time;
            return (statement + rt);
        }
        if (past.Minute >= now.Minute) {
            if (past.Second - now.Second == 1) {
                rt = "second ago";
            } else {
                rt = "minutes ago";
            }
            time = past.Minute - now.Minute;
            statement = "" + time;
            return (statement + rt);
        }
        // This process will go on until years
    }
    public static void Main() {
        DateTime before = new DateTime(1995, 8, 24);
        string date = getRelativeTime(before);
        Console.WriteLine("Windows 95 was {0}.", date);
    }
}

不完全有效,但如果您对其进行一点修改和调试,它很可能会完成任务。
