JavaScript: Convert milliseconds to object with days, hours, minutes, and seconds

msconvert.js

function convertMS(ms) {
  var d, h, m, s;
  s = Math.floor(ms / 1000);
  m = Math.floor(s / 60);
  s = s % 60;
  h = Math.floor(m / 60);
  m = m % 60;
  d = Math.floor(h / 24);
  h = h % 24;
  return { d: d, h: h, m: m, s: s };
};

Pass an amount of milliseconds as an argument when calling the function, and you'll obtain an object with properties d, h, m, and s, with the number of days, hours, minutes, and seconds, respectively. Useful if you wish to calculate the amount of time between two Unix timestamps.

You may also want to try the DateDiff and DateMeasure objects: https://gist.github.com/1563963

Thank you - nice and clean, just what I needed!

In simpler words, just copy it and go crazy. You don't even need to mention me.

Adding the rest of the ms could be nice. Something like new_ms = Math.floor((ms % 1000) * 1000) / 1000; and adding it to the return.

When I do programming, most the time I get stuck with basic maths lol. 👍 And you solved my problem with mod, thats what I needed. 😈

including the remaining MS:

function destructMS(milli) {
  if (isNaN(milli) || milli < 0) {
    return null;
  }

  var d, h, m, s, ms;
  s = Math.floor(milli / 1000);
  m = Math.floor(s / 60);
  s = s % 60;
  h = Math.floor(m / 60);
  m = m % 60;
  d = Math.floor(h / 24);
  h = h % 24;
  ms = Math.floor((milli % 1000) * 1000) / 1000;
  return { d: d, h: h, m: m, s: s, ms: ms };
}

destructMS(10034)
//=> { d: 0, h: 0, m: 0, s: 10, ms: 34 }

Thanks, I used it - msconvert.js.

var timer;

var compareDate = new Date();
compareDate.setDate(compareDate.getDate() + 7); //just for this demo today + 7 days

timer = setInterval(function() {
timeBetweenDates(compareDate);
}, 1000);

function timeBetweenDates(toDate) {
var dateEntered = toDate;
var now = new Date();
var difference = dateEntered.getTime() - now.getTime();

if (difference <= 0) {

// Timer done
clearInterval(timer);

} else {

var seconds = Math.floor(difference / 1000);
var minutes = Math.floor(seconds / 60);
var hours = Math.floor(minutes / 60);
var days = Math.floor(hours / 24);

hours %= 24;
minutes %= 60;
seconds %= 60;

$("#days").text(days);
$("#hours").text(hours);
$("#minutes").text(minutes);
$("#seconds").text(seconds);

}
}

var timer;

var compareDate = new Date();
compareDate.setDate(compareDate.getDate() + 7); //just for this demo today + 7 days

timer = setInterval(function() {
timeBetweenDates(compareDate);
}, 1000);

function timeBetweenDates(toDate) {
var dateEntered = toDate;
var now = new Date();
var difference = dateEntered.getTime() - now.getTime();

if (difference <= 0) {

// Timer done
clearInterval(timer);

} else {

var seconds = Math.floor(difference / 1000);
var minutes = Math.floor(seconds / 60);
var hours = Math.floor(minutes / 60);
var days = Math.floor(hours / 24);

hours %= 24;
minutes %= 60;
seconds %= 60;

$("#days").text(days);
$("#hours").text(hours);
$("#minutes").text(minutes);
$("#seconds").text(seconds);

}
}

(i want this code in typescript,will u please give the code....

I put code above on my little hobby project https://github.com/arsenal131/stopwatch

Thank you!
