@ask-imon/time_diff_calc v1.1.2

Timestamp Difference Calculator

This JavaScript utility calculates the difference between two given timestamps and returns the result in various formats.

Features

• Calculate Time Difference: Easily calculate the time difference between two timestamps.
• Multiple Formats: The system supports returning the time difference in various formats, including milliseconds, seconds, minutes, hours, days, weeks, months, years, a combined format of days, hours, minutes, and seconds (DHMS), and a detailed format specifying years, days, hours, minutes and seconds.

Installation

To use this utility in your project, simply include the JavaScript file in your project directory.

Usage

The function timeDiffCalc can be used as follows:

// Import the function and FormatTypes - assuming they are in the same file
const { timeDiffCalc, FormatTypes } = require('@ask-imon/time_diff_calc');

// Example timestamps
const timestamp1 = "2022-01-01T00:00:00Z";
const timestamp2 = "2023-01-02T12:30:45Z";

// Calculate the difference in a specific format

// To get the difference in Milliseconds
const differenceInMilliseconds = timeDiffCalc(timestamp1, timestamp2, FormatTypes.MILLISECOND);
console.log(`Difference in Milliseconds: ${differenceInMilliseconds}`);

// To get the difference in Seconds
const differenceInSecond = timeDiffCalc(timestamp1, timestamp2, FormatTypes.SECOND);
console.log(`Difference in Seconds: ${differenceInSecond}`);

// To get the difference in Minutes
const differenceInMinutes = timeDiffCalc(timestamp1, timestamp2, FormatTypes.MINUTE);
console.log(`Difference in Minutes: ${differenceInMinutes}`);

// To get the difference in Hours (Approx.)
const differenceInHours = timeDiffCalc(timestamp1, timestamp2, FormatTypes.HOUR);
console.log(`Difference in Hours: ${differenceInHours}`);

// To get the difference in Day (Approx.)
const differenceInDays = timeDiffCalc(timestamp1, timestamp2, FormatTypes.DAY);
console.log(`Difference in Days: ${differenceInDays}`);

// To get the difference in Weeks (Approx.)
const differenceInWeeks = timeDiffCalc(timestamp1, timestamp2, FormatTypes.WEEK);
console.log(`Difference in Weeks: ${differenceInWeeks}`);

// To get the difference in Months (Approx.)
const differenceInMonths = timeDiffCalc(timestamp1, timestamp2, FormatTypes.MONTH);
console.log(`Difference in Months: ${differenceInMonths}`);

// To get the difference in Years (Approx.)
const differenceInYears = timeDiffCalc(timestamp1, timestamp2, FormatTypes.YEAR);
console.log(`Difference in Years: ${differenceInYears}`);

// To get the difference in DHMS (Days, Hours, Minutes, Seconds)
const differenceInDHMS = timeDiffCalc(timestamp1, timestamp2, FormatTypes.DHMS);
console.log(`Difference in DHMS: ${differenceInDHMS}`);

// To get a detailed breakdown
const detailedDifference = timeDiffCalc(timestamp1, timestamp2, FormatTypes.DETAIL);
console.log(`Detailed difference: ${detailedDifference}`);
