Add a duration to a moment (moment.js)

Question

Moment version: 2.0.0

After reading the docs, I thought this would be straight-forward (Chrome console):

var timestring1 = \"2013-05-09T00:00:00Z\";
         


        

Answer 1

I am working on an application in which we track live route. Passenger wants to show current position of driver and the expected arrival time to reach at his/her location. So I need to add some duration into current time.

So I found the below mentioned way to do the same. We can add any duration(hour,minutes and seconds) in our current time by moment:

var travelTime = moment().add(642, 'seconds').format('hh:mm A');// it will add 642 seconds in the current time and will give time in 03:35 PM format

var travelTime = moment().add(11, 'minutes').format('hh:mm A');// it will add 11 mins in the current time and will give time in 03:35 PM format; can use m or minutes 

var travelTime = moment().add(2, 'hours').format('hh:mm A');// it will add 2 hours in the current time and will give time in 03:35 PM format

It fulfills my requirement. May be it can help you.
