parse-duration

convert a human readable duration to ms

Installation

then in your app:

var parse = require("parse-duration-clickup");

API

parse(str, defaultUnits)

convert str to ms

var ns = parse("1ns"); // => 1 / 1e6
var μs = parse("1μs"); // => 1 / 1000
var ms = parse("1ms"); // => 1
var s = parse("1s"); // => ms * 1000
var m = parse("1m"); // => s * 60
var h = parse("1h"); // => m * 60
var d = parse("1d"); // => h * 24
var w = parse("1w"); // => d * 7
var y = parse("1y"); // => d * 365.25

It can also handle basic compound expressions

parse("1hr 20mins"); // => 1 * h + 20 * m

whitespace

parse("1 hr 20 mins"); // => 1 * h + 20 * m

comma seperated numbers

parse("27,681 ns"); // => 27681 * ns

And most other types of noise

parse("running length: 1hour:20mins"); // => 1* h + 20 * m

You can even use negatives

parse("2hr -40mins"); // => 1 * h + 20 * m

And exponents

parse("2e3s"); // => 2000 * s

Available unit types are:

• nanoseconds (ns)
• microseconds (μs)
• milliseconds (ms)
• seconds (s, sec)
• minutes (m, min)
• hours (h, hr)
• days (d)
