回答10年的老问题，帮助新人。

我们可以将这个包用于javascript时间之前

 
// Load locale-specific relative date/time formatting rules.
import en from 'javascript-time-ago/locale/en'
 
// Add locale-specific relative date/time formatting rules.
TimeAgo.addLocale(en)
 
// Create relative date/time formatter.
const timeAgo = new TimeAgo('en-US')
 
timeAgo.format(new Date())
// "just now"
 
timeAgo.format(Date.now() - 60 * 1000)
// "a minute ago"
 
timeAgo.format(Date.now() - 2 * 60 * 60 * 1000)
// "2 hours ago"
 
timeAgo.format(Date.now() - 24 * 60 * 60 * 1000)
// "a day ago"

虽然这个问题是很久以前问过的，但写下这个答案希望它能帮助到一些人。

传递您想要开始计数的日期。使用momentjs的moment().fromNow():(在这里查看更多信息)

getRelativeTime(date) {
    const d = new Date(date * 1000);
    return moment(d).fromNow();
}

如果您想更改日期fromNow提供的信息，请编写自定义相对时间为时刻。

例如，在我自己的例子中，我想打印'one month ago'而不是'a month ago'(由moment(d). fromnow()提供)。在这种情况下，你可以写出下面给出的内容。

moment.updateLocale('en', {
    relativeTime: {
        future: 'in %s',
        past: '%s ago',
        s: 'a few seconds',
        ss: '%d seconds',
        m: '1 m',
        mm: '%d minutes',
        h: '1 h',
        hh: '%d hours',
        d: '1 d',
        dd: '%d days',
        M: '1 month',
        MM: '%d months',
        y: '1 y',
        yy: '%d years'
    }
});

注意:我是在Angular 6中为项目编写代码的

const createdAt = moment(created_at).fromNow()

量身定制的解决方案

        const duration = moment.duration(moment().diff(moment(created_at)))
        const createdAt = duration.as('week') >= 1
          ? `${Math.floor(duration.as('week'))} week(s)`
          : duration.as('day') >= 1
            ? `${Math.floor(duration.as('day'))} day(s)`
            : duration.as('hour') >= 1
              ? `${Math.floor(duration.as('hour'))} hour(s)`
              : `${Math.floor(duration.as('minute'))} minute(s)`

这些答案大多不能解释复数(例如:复数)。当我们想要“1分钟前”时，用“1分钟前”)

const MINUTE = 60;
const HOUR = MINUTE * 60;
const DAY = HOUR * 24;
const WEEK = DAY * 7;
const MONTH = DAY * 30;
const YEAR = DAY * 365;

function getTimeAgo(date) {
  const secondsAgo = Math.round((Date.now() - Number(date)) / 1000);

  if (secondsAgo < MINUTE) {
    return secondsAgo + ` second${secondsAgo !== 1 ? "s" : ""} ago`;
  }

  let divisor;
  let unit = "";

  if (secondsAgo < HOUR) {
    [divisor, unit] = [MINUTE, "minute"];
  } else if (secondsAgo < DAY) {
    [divisor, unit] = [HOUR, "hour"];
  } else if (secondsAgo < WEEK) {
    [divisor, unit] = [DAY, "day"];
  } else if (secondsAgo < MONTH) {
    [divisor, unit] = [WEEK, "week"];
  } else if (secondsAgo < YEAR) {
    [divisor, unit] = [MONTH, "month"];
  } else {
    [divisor, unit] = [YEAR, "year"];
  }

  const count = Math.floor(secondsAgo / divisor);
  return `${count} ${unit}${count > 1 ? "s" : ""} ago`;
}

然后你可以这样使用它:

const date = new Date();
console.log(getTimeAgo(date));
// 1 second ago
// 2 seconds ago
// 1 minute ago
// 2 minutes ago
// ...

以下是对Sky Sander的解决方案的轻微修改，允许日期作为字符串输入，并能够显示像“1分钟”而不是“73秒”这样的跨度

var timeSince = function(date) { if (typeof date !== 'object') { date = new Date(date); } var seconds = Math.floor((new Date() - date) / 1000); var intervalType; var interval = Math.floor(seconds / 31536000); if (interval >= 1) { intervalType = 'year'; } else { interval = Math.floor(seconds / 2592000); if (interval >= 1) { intervalType = 'month'; } else { interval = Math.floor(seconds / 86400); if (interval >= 1) { intervalType = 'day'; } else { interval = Math.floor(seconds / 3600); if (interval >= 1) { intervalType = "hour"; } else { interval = Math.floor(seconds / 60); if (interval >= 1) { intervalType = "minute"; } else { interval = seconds; intervalType = "second"; } } } } } if (interval > 1 || interval === 0) { intervalType += 's'; } return interval + ' ' + intervalType; }; var aDay = 24 * 60 * 60 * 1000; console.log(timeSince(new Date(Date.now() - aDay))); console.log(timeSince(new Date(Date.now() - aDay * 2)));

这是对国际的另一种看法。RelativeTimeFormat

支持过去日期和将来日期 同时接受字符串和日期 易于添加自定义范围(编辑范围) 可以很容易地翻译为Intl.RelativeTimeFormat('ua')

console.log(timeAgo('2021-08-09T15:29:01+0000')); function timeAgo(input) { const date = (input instanceof Date) ? input : new Date(input); const formatter = new Intl.RelativeTimeFormat('en'); const ranges = { years: 3600 * 24 * 365, months: 3600 * 24 * 30, weeks: 3600 * 24 * 7, days: 3600 * 24, hours: 3600, minutes: 60, seconds: 1 }; const secondsElapsed = (date.getTime() - Date.now()) / 1000; for (let key in ranges) { if (ranges[key] < Math.abs(secondsElapsed)) { const delta = secondsElapsed / ranges[key]; return formatter.format(Math.round(delta), key); } } }
