——>使用这个找到时间差距在两个日期在Swift(与两个字符串)。

func timeGapBetweenDates(previousDate : String,currentDate : String)
{
    let dateString1 = previousDate
    let dateString2 = currentDate

    let Dateformatter = DateFormatter()
    Dateformatter.dateFormat = "yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss"


    let date1 = Dateformatter.date(from: dateString1)
    let date2 = Dateformatter.date(from: dateString2)


    let distanceBetweenDates: TimeInterval? = date2?.timeIntervalSince(date1!)
    let secondsInAnHour: Double = 3600
    let minsInAnHour: Double = 60
    let secondsInDays: Double = 86400
    let secondsInWeek: Double = 604800
    let secondsInMonths : Double = 2592000
    let secondsInYears : Double = 31104000

    let minBetweenDates = Int((distanceBetweenDates! / minsInAnHour))
    let hoursBetweenDates = Int((distanceBetweenDates! / secondsInAnHour))
    let daysBetweenDates = Int((distanceBetweenDates! / secondsInDays))
    let weekBetweenDates = Int((distanceBetweenDates! / secondsInWeek))
    let monthsbetweenDates = Int((distanceBetweenDates! / secondsInMonths))
    let yearbetweenDates = Int((distanceBetweenDates! / secondsInYears))
    let secbetweenDates = Int(distanceBetweenDates!)




    if yearbetweenDates > 0
    {
        print(yearbetweenDates,"years")//0 years
    }
    else if monthsbetweenDates > 0
    {
        print(monthsbetweenDates,"months")//0 months
    }
    else if weekBetweenDates > 0
    {
        print(weekBetweenDates,"weeks")//0 weeks
    }
    else if daysBetweenDates > 0
    {
        print(daysBetweenDates,"days")//5 days
    }
    else if hoursBetweenDates > 0
    {
        print(hoursBetweenDates,"hours")//120 hours
    }
    else if minBetweenDates > 0
    {
        print(minBetweenDates,"minutes")//7200 minutes
    }
    else if secbetweenDates > 0
    {
        print(secbetweenDates,"seconds")//seconds
    }
}

这是一个较短的版本:基本上我现在尝试获得post时间戳与Date()之间的差异。

// MARK: - UPDATE Time Stamp
static func updateTimeStampPost(postTimeStamp: Date?, _ completion: (_ finalString: String?) -> Void) {
    // date in the current state
    let date = Date()
    let dateComponentFormatter = DateComponentsFormatter()

    // change the styling date, wether second minute or hour
    dateComponentFormatter.unitsStyle = .abbreviated
    dateComponentFormatter.allowedUnits = [.second, .minute, .hour, .day, .weekOfMonth]
    dateComponentFormatter.maximumUnitCount = 1

    // return the date new format as a string in the completion
    completion(dateComponentFormatter.string(from: postTimeStamp!, to: date))
}

以下是我对上述Swift 3的回答。这是截至2016年11月，Xcode发布版本为8.2 Beta (8C23)。使用上述Sagar和Emin的一些建议，有时不得不让Xcode自动完成来建议语法。在这个测试版中，语法似乎真的发生了变化。我从一个DatePicker:

let calendar = NSCalendar.current as NSCalendar
let currentDate = Date()
let date1 = calendar.startOfDay(for: buyDate!)
let date2 = calendar.startOfDay(for: currentDate)      
let flags = NSCalendar.Unit.day
let components = calendar.components(flags, from: date1, to: date2)
NSLog(" day= \(components.day)")

斯威夫特5

func dateDiff(dateStr:String) -> String {
    let f:DateFormatter = DateFormatter()
    f.timeZone = NSTimeZone.local
      f.dateFormat = "yyyy-M-dd'T'HH:mm:ss.SSSZZZ"
      
    let now = f.string(from: NSDate() as Date)
    let startDate = f.date(from: dateStr)
    let endDate = f.date(from: now)
    var _: NSCalendar = NSCalendar.current as NSCalendar
      
    
    let dateComponents = Calendar.current.dateComponents([ .weekOfMonth, .day , .hour , .minute , .second], from: startDate!, to: endDate!)
      
      let weeks = abs(dateComponents.weekOfMonth!)
      let days = abs(dateComponents.day!)
      let hours = abs(dateComponents.hour!)
      let min = abs(dateComponents.minute!)
      let sec = abs(dateComponents.second!)
      
      var timeAgo = ""

      if (sec > 0){
          if (sec > 1) {
              timeAgo = "\(sec) Seconds Ago"
          } else {
              timeAgo = "\(sec) Second Ago"
          }
      }
      
      if (min > 0){
          if (min > 1) {
              timeAgo = "\(min) Minutes Ago"
          } else {
              timeAgo = "\(min) Minute Ago"
          }
      }
      
      if(hours > 0){
          if (hours > 1) {
              timeAgo = "\(hours) Hours Ago"
          } else {
              timeAgo = "\(hours) Hour Ago"
          }
      }
      
      if (days > 0) {
          if (days > 1) {
              timeAgo = "\(days) Days Ago"
          } else {
              timeAgo = "\(days) Day Ago"
          }
      }
      
      if(weeks > 0){
          if (weeks > 1) {
              timeAgo = "\(weeks) Weeks Ago"
          } else {
              timeAgo = "\(weeks) Week Ago"
          }
      }
      
      print("timeAgo is===> \(timeAgo)")
      return timeAgo;
  }

对于XCode版本8.3.3和Swift 3.0:

    let dateFormatter = DateFormatter()
    dateFormatter.dateStyle = .medium
    dateFormatter.timeStyle = .short

    var beginDate = "2017-08-24 12:00:00"
    var endDate = "2017-09-07 12:00:00"


    let startDateTime = dateFormatter.date(from: beginDate) //according to date format your date string
    print(startDateTime ?? "") //Convert String to Date

    let endDateTime = dateFormatter.date(from: endDate) //according to date format your date string
    print(endDateTime ?? "") //Convert String to Date

    let dateComponentsFormatter = DateComponentsFormatter()
    dateComponentsFormatter.allowedUnits = [NSCalendar.Unit.minute,NSCalendar.Unit.hour,NSCalendar.Unit.day]


   let interval = endDateTime!.timeIntervalSince(startDateTime!)
   var diff = dateComponentsFormatter.string(from: interval)!

   print(diff)

   var day_i  = 0
   var hour_i = 0
   var min_i = 0


     if (diff.contains("d"))
       {
              let day = diff.substring(to: (diff.range(of: "d")?.lowerBound)!)

               day_i  = Int(day)!
               print ("day --> \(day_i)")

               diff = diff.substring(from:(diff.range(of : " ")?.upperBound )!)
               print(diff)
       }


       let hour = diff.substring(to: (diff.range(of : ":")?.lowerBound )!)
       hour_i  = Int(hour)!
       print ("hour --> \(hour_i)")

       let min = diff.substring(from: (diff.range(of : ":")?.upperBound )!)
       min_i  = Int(min)!
       print ("min --> \(min_i)")

在Swift 2.2中

    /// Returns the amount of years from another date
func years(fromdate: NSDate) -> Int {
    return NSCalendar.currentCalendar().components([.Year], fromDate: fromdate, toDate: NSDate(), options: []).year ?? 0
