# duration - Time duration utilities
_Formerly part of [es5-ext](https://github.com/medikoo/es5-ext) project._
## Installation
### Node.js
$ npm install duration
### Browser
Can be bundled for browser with help of [modules-webmake](https://github.com/medikoo/modules-webmake)
## Example usage:
```javascript
var Duration = require("duration");
var duration = new Duration(new Date(2000, 6, 7), new Date(2010, 8, 13, 3, 23, 8, 456));
console.log("Years: ", duration.years);
console.log("Months: ", duration.months);
console.log("Days: ", duration.days);
console.log("Hours: ", duration.hours);
console.log("Minutes: ", duration.minutes);
console.log("Seconds: ", duration.seconds);
console.log("Milliseconds: ", duration.milliseconds);
console.log("Trailing months: ", duration.month);
console.log("Trailing days: ", duration.day);
console.log("Trailing hours: ", duration.hour);
console.log("Trailing minutes: ", duration.minute);
console.log("Trailing seconds: ", duration.second);
console.log("Trailing milliseconds: ", duration.millisecond);
console.log("Default string representation: ", duration.toString());
console.log("Alternative string representation: ", duration.toString(1));
console.log("Custom string representation: ", duration.toString("H: %Hs m: %M"));
```
Output:
```
Years: 10
Months: 122
Days: 3720
Hours: 89283
Minutes: 5357003
Seconds: 321420188
Milliseconds: 321420188456
Trailing months: 2
Trailing days: 6
Trailing hours: 3
Trailing minutes: 23
Trailing seconds: 8
Trailing milliseconds: 456
Default string representation: 10y 2m 6d 03:23:08.456
Alternative string representation: 10y 2m 6d 3h 23m 8s 456ms
Custom string representation: H: 89283 m: 23
```
## Duration(from[, to])
Main module is both constructor and factory method, and can be used either way.
`from` and `to` are expected to be JavaScript Date objects. `to` is optional, and if not provided it defaults to current time.
## Duration.prototype properties
### years
Returns full years of the duration
### months
Returns full months of the duration
### days
Returns full days of the duration
### hours
Returns full hours of the duration
### seconds
Returns full seconds of the duration
### minutes
Returns full minutes of the duration
### milliseconds
Returns milliseconds of the duration
### year
Same as `years`. Returns full years of the duration
### month
Returns trailing months of the duration
### day
Returns trailing days of the duration
### hour
Returns trailing hours of the duration
### minute
Returns trailing minutes of the duration
### second
Returns trailing seconds of the duration
### millisecond
Returns trailing seconds of the duration
## valueOf()
Same as `milliseconds`. Returns milliseconds of the duration
## toString([mode[, threshold]])
Returns readable representation of the duration.
When invoked without arguments (defaults to _mode=0_), returns as:
10y 2m 6d 03:23:08.456
When invoked with mode `1`, returns alternative representation:
10y 2m 6d 3h 23m 8s 456ms
Representation returned by default modes can be customized with threshold setting that trims lowest units:
```javascript
duration.toString(); // 10y 2m 6d 03:23:08.456
duration.toString(0, 1); // 10y 2m 6d 03:23:08
duration.toString(0, 2); // 10y 2m 6d 03:23
duration.toString(1); // 10y 2m 6d 3h 23m 8s 456ms
duration.toString(1, 1); // 10y 2m 6d 3h 23m 8s
duration.toString(1, 2); // 10y 2m 6d 3h 23m
```
## toString(format)
When invoked with string, formats the duration according to given pattern, where:
- `%y` - `duration.year`
- `%m` - `duration.month`
- `%d` - `duration.day`
- `%H` - `duration.hour`
- `%M` - `duration.minute`
- `%S` - `duration.second`
- `%L` - `duration.millisecond`
- `%ms` - `duration.months`
- `%ds` - `duration.days`
- `%Hs` - `duration.hours`
- `%Ms` - `duration.minutes`
- `%Ss` - `duration.seconds`
- `%Ls` - `duration.milliseconds`
- `%sign` - If duration is negative outputs `-` otherwise empty string
