short-time-ago/dist/index.js

A small, no dependencies, Typescript utility to describe time differences in a human readable format (for example, '1 minute ago')

// src/index.ts
function timeAgo(date, now) {
  const units = [
    ["year", 365 * 24 * 60 * 60 * 1e3],
    ["month", 30.5 * 24 * 60 * 60 * 1e3],
    ["day", 24 * 60 * 60 * 1e3],
    ["hour", 60 * 60 * 1e3],
    ["minute", 60 * 1e3],
    ["second", 1e3]
  ];
  const diff = (now || /* @__PURE__ */ new Date()).getTime() - date.getTime();
  const elapsed = Math.abs(diff);
  for (const [name, size] of units) {
    const value = Math.floor(elapsed / size);
    if (value > 0) {
      const plural = value > 1 ? "s" : "";
      const description = `${value} ${name}${plural}`;
      return diff > 0 ? `${description} ago` : `in ${description}`;
    }
  }
  return "just now";
}
export {
  timeAgo
};
