minutes-to-max-human-time

Takes minutes and returns the maximum whole human readable equivalent in minutes, hours, days or weeks. Mimics Google Calendar online appointments for setting reminders (notifications).

For example:

• 50 minutes returns 50 minutes
• 60 minutes returns 1 hour
• 70 minutes returns 70 minutes
• 1440 minutes returns 1 day
• 1441 minutes returns 1441 minutes
• 100800 minutes returns 1 week

Install options:

• npm install minutes-to-max-human-time
• bower install minutes-to-max-human-time

Example:

var m2MaxHT = require('minutes-to-max-human-time');

m2MaxHT.getMax(0);    // { timeQty: 0, timePeriod: 'minutes' }

m2MaxHT.getMax(59);   // { timeQty: 59, timePeriod: 'minutes' }

m2MaxHT.getMax(60);   // { timeQty: 1, timePeriod: 'hours' }

m2MaxHT.getMax(61);   // { timeQty: 61, timePeriod: 'minutes' }

m2MaxHT.getMax(60*23);  // { timeQty: 23, timePeriod: 'hours' }

m2MaxHT.getMax(60*24);  // { timeQty: 1, timePeriod: 'days' }

m2MaxHT.getMax(60*25);  // { timeQty: 25, timePeriod: 'hours' }

m2MaxHT.getMax(60*24*6); // { timeQty: 6, timePeriod: 'days' }

m2MaxHT.getMax(60*24*7+1);
// { timeQty: 10081, timePeriod: 'minutes' }

m2MaxHT.getMax(60*24*7);  // { timeQty: 1, timePeriod: 'weeks' }

m2MaxHT.getMax(60*24*8);  // { timeQty: 8, timePeriod: 'days' }

minutes-to-max-human-time has 2 functions: getMax and getMinutes.

getMax(minutes, objectToUpdate, maxMinutes)

Returns an object with these 2 parameters:

• timeQty: integer,
• timePeriod: string of 'minutes', 'hours', 'days', or 'weeks'

'weeks' is the maximum whole human readable equivalent given minutes.

minutes

• integer, required

objectToUpdate

• object literal, optional.
• If passed in objectToUpdate will be updated with timeQty and timePeriod parameters. If not included, a new object is returned.

example:

var m2MaxHT = require('minutes-to-max-human-time');
var myObj = {method: 'email', minutes:60};
m2MaxHT.getMax(myObj.minutes, myObj);
console.log(myObj);
// { method: 'email', minutes: 60, timeQty: 1, timePeriod: 'hours' }

maxMinutes

• integer, optional, default = 40320 (4 weeks);
• If passed in will reset minutes parameter to maxMinutes if minutes is > maxMinutes

example:

m2MaxHT.getMax(85, {}, 80);
// { timeQty: 80, timePeriod: 'minutes' }  // minutes was set to 80 from 85

getMinutes(object)

Returns the number of minutes given an object with parameters timeQty and timePeriod.

object

• object literal, required.
• must be an object with parameters timeQty and timePeriod where timeQty is an integer and timePeriod is a string of 'minutes','hours','days' or 'weeks'.

example:

var m2MaxHT = require('minutes-to-max-human-time');

var myObj = {timeQty: 1, timePeriod: 'hours' };
var minutes = m2MaxHT.getMinutes(myObj);
console.log(minutes);
// 60
