humanize_time

Crystal CI GitHub release Commits Since Last Release License

Reports the approximate distance in time between two Time objects. Pass include_seconds: true if you want more detailed approximations when distance < 1 min, 29 secs.

humanize_time supports i18n translations too so it can be used in internationalized apps.

humanize_time implementation is heavily inspired by (read: stolen) distance_of_time_in_words method. Many thanks to Rails community!

Distances are reported based on the following table:

| Value | Result | | --- | --- | | 0 <-> 29 secs | less than a minute | | 30 secs <-> 1 min, 29 secs | 1 minute | | 1 min, 30 secs <-> 44 mins, 29 secs | [2..44] minutes | | 44 mins, 30 secs <-> 89 mins, 29 secs | about 1 hour | | 89 mins, 30 secs <-> 23 hrs, 59 mins, 29 secs | about [2..24] hours | | 23 hrs, 59 mins, 30 secs <-> 41 hrs, 59 mins, 29 secs | 1 day | | 41 hrs, 59 mins, 30 secs <-> 29 days, 23 hrs, 59 mins, 29 secs | [2..29] days | | 29 days, 23 hrs, 59 mins, 30 secs <-> 44 days, 23 hrs, 59 mins, 29 secs | about 1 month | | 44 days, 23 hrs, 59 mins, 30 secs <-> 59 days, 23 hrs, 59 mins, 29 secs | about 2 months | | 59 days, 23 hrs, 59 mins, 30 secs <-> 1 yr minus 1 sec | [2..12] months | | 1 yr <-> 1 yr, 3 months | about 1 year | | 1 yr, 3 months <-> 1 yr, 9 months | over 1 year | | 1 yr, 9 months <-> 2 yr minus 1 sec | almost 2 years | | 2 yrs <-> max time or date | (same rules as 1 yr) |

Usage

require "humanize_time"

HumanizeTime.locale = "es" # or `I18n.locale = "es"`

HumanizeTime.distance_of_time_in_words(42.minutes.ago, Time.local)

HumanizeTime.distance_of_time_in_words(3.seconds.ago, Time.local, include_seconds: true)
# => menos de 5 segundos
