We now use webpack instead of SystemJS, effectively bundling modules into one file (plus commons chunks) for every entry point. This results in a much smaller extension size (almost half). Furthermore we use yarn/npm even for extension run-time dependencies. This relieves us from manually vendoring and building dependencies. It's also easier to understand for new developers familiar with node.

Use this package to easily convert various time formats to milliseconds.
|
|
|
|
## Examples
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
ms('2 days') // 172800000
|
|
ms('1d') // 86400000
|
|
ms('10h') // 36000000
|
|
ms('2.5 hrs') // 9000000
|
|
ms('2h') // 7200000
|
|
ms('1m') // 60000
|
|
ms('5s') // 5000
|
|
ms('1y') // 31557600000
|
|
ms('100') // 100
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Convert from milliseconds
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
ms(60000) // "1m"
|
|
ms(2 * 60000) // "2m"
|
|
ms(ms('10 hours')) // "10h"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Time format written-out
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
ms(60000, { long: true }) // "1 minute"
|
|
ms(2 * 60000, { long: true }) // "2 minutes"
|
|
ms(ms('10 hours'), { long: true }) // "10 hours"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Features
|
|
|
|
- Works both in [node](https://nodejs.org) and in the browser.
|
|
- If a number is supplied to `ms`, a string with a unit is returned.
|
|
- If a string that contains the number is supplied, it returns it as a number (e.g.: it returns `100` for `'100'`).
|
|
- If you pass a string with a number and a valid unit, the number of equivalent ms is returned.

## Caught a bug?
|
|
|
|
1. [Fork](https://help.github.com/articles/fork-a-repo/) this repository to your own GitHub account and then [clone](https://help.github.com/articles/cloning-a-repository/) it to your local device
|
|
2. Link the package to the global module directory: `npm link`
|
|
3. Within the module you want to test your local development instance of ms, just link it to the dependencies: `npm link ms`. Instead of the default one from npm, node will now use your clone of ms!
|
|
|
|
As always, you can run the tests using: `npm test`
