@ecromaneli/clockjs v1.0.13

Install

npm i @ecromaneli/clockjs

Constructors

Import script

To use ClockJS, import script with this code:

const {ClockJS} = require('@ecromaneli/clockjs')

Now

To get instance of ClockJS with actual date, use:

ClockJS.now(): ClockJS

From timestamp

To get instance of ClockJS with timestamp in milliseconds (like Date.now()), use:

ClockJS.fromTimestamp(timestamp: number): ClockJS

Public Methods

• start(): void start ticking;
• stop(): void stop ticking;
• alreadyStarted(): boolean return if clock is already started;
• tick(): void manually tick.

Events

• ticking on clock tick;
• year on year change;
• month on month change;
• day on day change;
• hour on hour change;
• minute on minute change;
• second on second change.

Bind and Unbind handlers

.on (events: string, handler: (event: string, clock: ClockJS) => void)
.off(events: string, handler: (event: string, clock: ClockJS) => void)

Format date

You can format the clock time any way you want by using a string with:

• Y year, 1 - 4 digits;
• M month number, 1 or 2 digits;
• W weekday number, 1 or 2 digits;
• D day, 1 or 2 digits;
• H hours (24 hours), 1 or 2 digits;
• h hours, 1 or 2 digits;
• m minutes, 1 or 2 digits;
• s seconds, 1 or 2 digits;
• u milliseconds in seconds, 1 digit (.000);
• TZD timezone, +-HH:mm or Z;
• MMM or MON month abbrev. (Jan, Feb, Mar...);
• MONTH month name (January, February...);
• WWW weekday abbrev. (Mon, Tue, Wed...);
• WEEKDAY weekday name (Monday, Tuesday...).

The function:

    // Print something like 2018 Jun 04, 15:49:32.770
    .format('YYYY MON DD, hh:mm:ss.u')

For example:

The ISO 8601 format is: 2018-06-04T05:57:23.557Z.

    // ISO 8601
    clock.format('YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm:ss.uTZD')

Usage Example

const {ClockJS} = require('@ecromaneli/clockjs')
let clock = ClockJS.now()

let handler = (event, clock) => {
    console.log(clock.format('YYYY-MM-DD hh:mm:ss'))
};

// Start clock (now, clock ticking)
clock.start()

// Bind handler on year, day and second change
clock.on('year day second', handler)

// Unbind handler on year and day change
clock.off('year day', handler)

// Stop clock
clock.stop()

Obs.: You don't need start the clock to use date information or .format() method. You need start, to use listeners.
