Formats milliseconds or minutes and seconds as clock time
npm install clock-time
Import or require
the package and pass milliseconds as a single argument to get nicely formatted clock time.
import clockTime from 'clock-time'; // es6
const clockTime = require('clock-time'); // cjs
clockTime(60 * 1000); // 1:00
Or, pass the number of minutes as the first argument and the number of seconds as the second argument instead.
clockTime(4, 20); // 4:20
Use the named export toClockParts
to convert milliseconds to an object of minutes, zero-padded seconds, and total seconds. This can be useful when you want to use the parts of a clock time separately or in addition to the formatted string.
If the second argument to toClockParts
is true
, zero-padding on the returned seconds
property will be disabled and seconds
will be a number.
import {toClockParts} from 'clock-time';
const {
minutes, // 4
seconds, // 20
total // 260
} = toClockParts(260000);
const formatted = `${minutes}:${seconds}`; // or clockTime(minutes, seconds)
