ms-faster

!CI

Use this package to easily convert various time formats to milliseconds. It's better than real ms in performance and stuff.

Examples

``js
const ms = require("ms-faster")

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
ms('-3 days') // -259200000
ms('-1h') // -3600000
ms('-200') // -200
`

$3

`js
const ms = require("ms-faster")

ms(60000) // "1m"
ms(2 * 60000) // "2m"
ms(-3 * 60000) // "-3m"
ms(ms('10 hours')) // "10h"
`

$3

`js
const ms = require("ms-faster")

ms(60000, { long: true }) // "1 minute"
ms(2 * 60000, { long: true }) // "2 minutes"
ms(-3 * 60000, { long: true }) // "-3 minutes"
ms(ms('10 hours'), { long: true }) // "10 hours"
`

Features

- Works both in Node.js and in the browser
- If a number is supplied to ms-faster, 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 milliseconds is returned

Caught a Bug?

1. Fork this repository to your own GitHub account and then clone 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.js will now use your clone of ms!

As always, you can run the tests using: npm test`
