聚会晚了几年，但我有一个要求，无论是过去还是将来的约会，都要这样做，所以我把杰夫和文森特的约会结合在一起。这是一场盛大的盛会！：）

public static class DateTimeHelper
    {

        private const int MINUTE = 60 * SECOND;
        private const int HOUR = 60 * MINUTE;

            var ts = DateTime.UtcNow.Ticks < dateTime.Ticks ? new TimeSpan(dateTime.Ticks - DateTime.UtcNow.Ticks) : new TimeSpan(DateTime.UtcNow.Ticks - dateTime.Ticks);

            double delta = ts.TotalSeconds;

            if (delta < 1 * MINUTE)
            {
                return isFuture ? "in " + (ts.Seconds == 1 ? "one second" : ts.Seconds + " seconds") : ts.Seconds == 1 ? "one second ago" : ts.Seconds + " seconds ago";

            {

                return isFuture ? "in " + (months <= 1 ? "one month" : months + " months") : months <= 1 ? "one month ago" : months + " months ago";
            }
            else
            {
                int years = Convert.ToInt32(Math.Floor((double)ts.Days / 365));
                return isFuture ? "in " + (years <= 1 ? "one year" : years + " years") : years <= 1 ? "one year ago" : years + " years ago";

        }
    }

var ts=新时间跨度（DateTime.UtcNow.Ticks-dt.Ticks）；

对DateTime执行减法仍会返回TimeSpan。

所以你可以这样做

(DateTime.UtcNow - dt).TotalSeconds

我也很惊讶地看到常数用手相乘，然后注释加上乘法。这是错误的优化吗？

使用Fluent DateTime

var dateTime1 = 2.Hours().Ago();
var dateTime2 = 3.Days().Ago();
var dateTime3 = 1.Months().Ago();
var dateTime4 = 5.Hours().FromNow();
var dateTime5 = 2.Weeks().FromNow();
var dateTime6 = 40.Seconds().FromNow();

// Calculate total days in current year
int daysInYear;

for (var i = 1; i <= 12; i++)
    daysInYear += DateTime.DaysInMonth(DateTime.Now.Year, i);

// Past date
DateTime dateToCompare = DateTime.Now.Subtract(TimeSpan.FromMinutes(582));

// Calculate difference between current date and past date
double diff = (DateTime.Now - dateToCompare).TotalMilliseconds;

TimeSpan ts = TimeSpan.FromMilliseconds(diff);

var years = ts.TotalDays / daysInYear; // Years
var months = ts.TotalDays / (daysInYear / (double)12); // Months
var weeks = ts.TotalDays / 7; // Weeks
var days = ts.TotalDays; // Days
var hours = ts.TotalHours; // Hours
var minutes = ts.TotalMinutes; // Minutes
var seconds = ts.TotalSeconds; // Seconds

if (years >= 1)
    Console.WriteLine(Math.Round(years, 0) + " year(s) ago");
else if (months >= 1)
    Console.WriteLine(Math.Round(months, 0) + " month(s) ago");
else if (weeks >= 1)
    Console.WriteLine(Math.Round(weeks, 0) + " week(s) ago");
else if (days >= 1)
    Console.WriteLine(Math.Round(days, 0) + " days(s) ago");
else if (hours >= 1)
    Console.WriteLine(Math.Round(hours, 0) + " hour(s) ago");
else if (minutes >= 1)
    Console.WriteLine(Math.Round(minutes, 0) + " minute(s) ago");
else if (seconds >= 1)
    Console.WriteLine(Math.Round(seconds, 0) + " second(s) ago");

Console.ReadLine();

Nuget上还有一个名为Humanizr的软件包，它实际上运行得很好，并且在.NET Foundation中。

DateTime.UtcNow.AddHours(-30).Humanize() => "yesterday"
DateTime.UtcNow.AddHours(-2).Humanize() => "2 hours ago"

DateTime.UtcNow.AddHours(30).Humanize() => "tomorrow"
DateTime.UtcNow.AddHours(2).Humanize() => "2 hours from now"

TimeSpan.FromMilliseconds(1299630020).Humanize() => "2 weeks"
TimeSpan.FromMilliseconds(1299630020).Humanize(3) => "2 weeks, 1 day, 1 hour"

Scott Hanselman在他的博客上写了一篇文章

我从比尔·盖茨的一个博客中得到了这个答案。我需要在我的浏览器历史记录中找到它，我会给你链接。

执行相同操作的Javascript代码（按要求）：

function posted(t) {
    var now = new Date();
    var diff = parseInt((now.getTime() - Date.parse(t)) / 1000);
    if (diff < 60) { return 'less than a minute ago'; }
    else if (diff < 120) { return 'about a minute ago'; }
    else if (diff < (2700)) { return (parseInt(diff / 60)).toString() + ' minutes ago'; }
    else if (diff < (5400)) { return 'about an hour ago'; }
    else if (diff < (86400)) { return 'about ' + (parseInt(diff / 3600)).toString() + ' hours ago'; }
    else if (diff < (172800)) { return '1 day ago'; } 
    else {return (parseInt(diff / 86400)).toString() + ' days ago'; }
}

基本上，你是以秒为单位工作的。
