consecutive-segments.js

time-segments.js outputs segments. This library will group consecutive segments.

Motivation

Not all visualizations show a single block for each segment. Sometimes you will want to aggregate consecutive blocks into a single block. This library prepares segments into a state suitable to be aggregated.

API

This library exposes a single method.

group( segments, scale )

Takes in an array of segments and a scale, returns an array. Each item in the array is an array of consecutive segments.

scale can be any of the resolutions supported by moment.js. A short list of examples include days, years, weeks. Moment's abbrevations are also supported, as in w for weeks. The default scale is weeks.

This library transforms segments from this form:

{
  1000: [eventOne, eventTwo]
}

to be of this form:

{
  timestamp: 1000,
  segments: [eventOne, eventTwo]
}
