Need help with date functionality.

[Bhanu_Manoj]

Hi All,

I have 1 date time variables as below.

var Date1 = 2020-06-03 18:02:13.700 //last connection property of a thing in date time datatype

How can I get the difference between current time and Date1 in format of days,hours,minutes, seconds (2 days, 7 hours, 8 minutes, 39 seconds)

Thanks and Regards,

Bhanu.

Something like this may help:

function humanReadableMilliseconds(milliseconds) {
    var seconds=~~((milliseconds/1000)%60);
    var minutes=~~((milliseconds/(1000*60))%60);
    var hours=~~((milliseconds/(1000*60*60))%24);
    var days=~~((milliseconds/(1000*60*60*24))%365);
    var years=~~((milliseconds/(1000*60*60*24*365))%1000);
    return (years?years+'y ':'')+(days?days+'d ':'')+(hours?hours+'h ':'')+(minutes?minutes+'m ':'')+(seconds?seconds+'s ':'');
}
