我个人更喜欢不带前导零的开头单位(天、小时、分钟)。但是秒应该总是以分钟(0:13)开头，这种表示很容易被认为是“持续时间”，不需要进一步解释(标记为min, sec(s)等)，可用于各种语言(国际化)。

    // returns  (-)d.h:mm:ss(.f)
    //          (-)h:mm:ss(.f)
    //          (-)m:ss(.f)
    function formatSeconds (value, fracDigits) {
        var isNegative = false;
        if (isNaN(value)) {
            return value;
        } else if (value < 0) {
            isNegative = true;
            value = Math.abs(value);
        }
        var days = Math.floor(value / 86400);
        value %= 86400;
        var hours = Math.floor(value / 3600);
        value %= 3600;
        var minutes = Math.floor(value / 60);
        var seconds = (value % 60).toFixed(fracDigits || 0);
        if (seconds < 10) {
            seconds = '0' + seconds;
        }

        var res = hours ? (hours + ':' + ('0' + minutes).slice(-2) + ':' + seconds) : (minutes + ':' + seconds);
        if (days) {
            res = days + '.' + res;
        }
        return (isNegative ? ('-' + res) : res);
    }

//模仿服务器端(.net, c#)持续时间格式:

    public static string Format(this TimeSpan interval)
    {
        string pattern;
        if (interval.Days > 0)          pattern = @"d\.h\:mm\:ss";
        else if (interval.Hours > 0)    pattern = @"h\:mm\:ss";
        else                            pattern = @"m\:ss";
        return string.Format("{0}", interval.ToString(pattern));
    }

s2t=function (t){
  return parseInt(t/86400)+'d '+(new Date(t%86400*1000)).toUTCString().replace(/.*(\d{2}):(\d{2}):(\d{2}).*/, "$1h $2m $3s");
}

s2t(123456);

结果:

1d 10h 17m 36s

主题的变奏。处理个位数秒的方式有点不同

seconds2time(0)  ->  "0s" 
seconds2time(59) -> "59s" 
seconds2time(60) -> "1:00" 
seconds2time(1000) -> "16:40" 
seconds2time(4000) -> "1:06:40"

function seconds2time (seconds) {
    var hours   = Math.floor(seconds / 3600);
    var minutes = Math.floor((seconds - (hours * 3600)) / 60);
    var seconds = seconds - (hours * 3600) - (minutes * 60);
    var time = "";

    if (hours != 0) {
      time = hours+":";
    }
    if (minutes != 0 || time !== "") {
      minutes = (minutes < 10 && time !== "") ? "0"+minutes : String(minutes);
      time += minutes+":";
    }
    if (time === "") {
      time = seconds+"s";
    }
    else {
      time += (seconds < 10) ? "0"+seconds : String(seconds);
    }
    return time;
}

如果你知道你有多少秒，这就可以了。它还使用本机Date()对象。

function formattime(numberofseconds){    
    var zero = '0', hours, minutes, seconds, time;

    time = new Date(0, 0, 0, 0, 0, numberofseconds, 0);

    hh = time.getHours();
    mm = time.getMinutes();
    ss = time.getSeconds() 

    // Pad zero values to 00
    hh = (zero+hh).slice(-2);
    mm = (zero+mm).slice(-2);
    ss = (zero+ss).slice(-2);

    time = hh + ':' + mm + ':' + ss;
    return time; 
}

最普遍的答案是

function hms(seconds) {
  return [3600, 60]
    .reduceRight(
      (p, b) => r => [Math.floor(r / b)].concat(p(r % b)),
      r => [r]
    )(seconds)
    .map(a => a.toString().padStart(2, '0'))
    .join(':');
}

一些示例输出:

> hms(0)
< "00:00:00"

> hms(5)
< "00:00:05"

> hms(60)
< "00:01:00"

> hms(3785)
< "01:03:05"

> hms(37850)
< "10:30:50"

> hms(378500)
< "105:08:20"

详见https://stackoverflow.com/a/66504936/1310733

以下是我的看法:

function formatTime(seconds) {
  const h = Math.floor(seconds / 3600);
  const m = Math.floor((seconds % 3600) / 60);
  const s = Math.round(seconds % 60);
  return [
    h,
    m > 9 ? m : (h ? '0' + m : m || '0'),
    s > 9 ? s : '0' + s
  ].filter(Boolean).join(':');
}

预期结果:

const expect = require('expect');
expect(formatTime(0)).toEqual('0:00');
expect(formatTime(1)).toEqual('0:01');
expect(formatTime(599)).toEqual('9:59');
expect(formatTime(600)).toEqual('10:00');
expect(formatTime(3600)).toEqual('1:00:00');
expect(formatTime(360009)).toEqual('100:00:09');
expect(formatTime(0.2)).toEqual('0:00');
