react-human-time

npm install --save react-human-time

A React component that wraps the library human-time and periodically updates it so you don't need to manually get updated "X minutes ago" strings.

Usage

<h1>Andre said hi to you <HumanTime time={timestamp} /></h1>

Renders as Andre said hi to you 2 mins ago.

You can also set the frequency of updates with the prop period:

<h1>Andre said hi to you <HumanTime time={timestamp} period={120e3} /></h1>
