Easy time

Tiny tool to deal with time conversions.

require('easy-time')()
//default
expire_time  =  (5).minutes
expire_time  ==  5 //true
expire_time  === 5 //false
+expire_time === 5 //true
 
token = jwt.sign(user, secret, { expiresInMinutes: expire_time })
key = user.email + '_token'
redis.set(key, token)
redis.expires(key, expire_time.to_seconds)
 
//functional
timeout = to_milliseconds(minutes(2))
setTimeout(function () {
    console.log(to_seconds(timeout) + ' seconds have passed');
}, timeout);

To install with npm use:

$ npm install easy-time

Then import with:

• Node

require('easy-time')(options)
//or
require('easy-time/functional')(options)

• Web

<script src="scripts/easy-time.min.js"></script>

Options

Singular

• singular : Boolean
• default : false

Includes singular version of getters

Example:

• Node

require('easy-time')({singular:true});
 
console.log((1).hour.to_seconds);

• Web

<script src="scripts/easy-time.min.js" singular="true"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">console.log((1).hour.to_seconds);</script> 

Table

• table : Array<String>
• default : ['milliseconds', 'seconds', 'minutes', 'hours', 'days', 'months', 'years']

Include units starting from milliseconds going to the next unit each time. Weeks, centuries and greater units than centuries are excluded by default. You can give your own names if you find the originals redundant.

Example:

• Node

require('easy-time')({table:['msec', 'sec', 'min']});
 
console.log(12..min.to_msec);

• Web

<script src="scripts/easy-time.min.js" table="msec sec min"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">console.log(12..min.to_msec);</script>
