How to convert time milliseconds to hours, min, sec format in JavaScript?

Question

I have the time as milliseconds, but I want the time after conversion like 00:00:00.

Ex: In milliseconds=86400000. I want how many hours in that millise

Answer 1

This one returns time like youtube videos

    function getYoutubeLikeToDisplay(millisec) {
        var seconds = (millisec / 1000).toFixed(0);
        var minutes = Math.floor(seconds / 60);
        var hours = "";
        if (minutes > 59) {
            hours = Math.floor(minutes / 60);
            hours = (hours >= 10) ? hours : "0" + hours;
            minutes = minutes - (hours * 60);
            minutes = (minutes >= 10) ? minutes : "0" + minutes;
        }

        seconds = Math.floor(seconds % 60);
        seconds = (seconds >= 10) ? seconds : "0" + seconds;
        if (hours != "") {
            return hours + ":" + minutes + ":" + seconds;
        }
        return minutes + ":" + seconds;
    }

Output:

• getYoutubeLikeToDisplay(129900) = "2:10"
• getYoutubeLikeToDisplay(1229900) = "20:30"
• getYoutubeLikeToDisplay(21229900) = "05:53:50"

In my implementation I used Moment.js:

export default (value) => 
  const duration = moment.duration(value);

  const milliseconds = duration.milliseconds();
  const seconds = duration.seconds();
  const minutes = duration.minutes();
  const hours = duration.hours();
  const day = duration.days();

  const sDay = `${day}d `;
  const sHours = (hours < 10) ? `0${hours}h ` : `${hours}h `;
  const sMinutes = (minutes < 10) ? `0${minutes}' ` : `${minutes}' `;
  const sSeconds = (seconds < 10) ? `0${seconds}" ` : `${seconds}" `;
  const sMilliseconds = `${milliseconds}ms`;

  ...
}

Once got the strings, I composed them as I want.

To Convert time in millisecond to human readable format.

 function timeConversion(millisec) {

        var seconds = (millisec / 1000).toFixed(1);

        var minutes = (millisec / (1000 * 60)).toFixed(1);

        var hours = (millisec / (1000 * 60 * 60)).toFixed(1);

        var days = (millisec / (1000 * 60 * 60 * 24)).toFixed(1);

        if (seconds < 60) {
            return seconds + " Sec";
        } else if (minutes < 60) {
            return minutes + " Min";
        } else if (hours < 24) {
            return hours + " Hrs";
        } else {
            return days + " Days"
        }
    }

I works for me as i get milliseconds=1592380675409 using javascript method getTime() which returns the number of milliseconds between midnight of January 1, 1970 and the specified date.

var d = new Date();//Wed Jun 17 2020 13:27:55 GMT+0530 (India Standard Time)
var n = d.getTime();//1592380675409 this value is store somewhere

//function call 
console.log(convertMillisecToHrMinSec(1592380675409));

var convertMillisecToHrMinSec = (time) => {
  let date = new Date(time);
  let hr = date.getHours();
  let min = date.getMinutes();
  let sec = date.getSeconds();

  hr = (hr < 10) ? "0"+ hr : hr;
  min = (min < 10) ? "0"+ min : min;
  sec = (sec < 10) ? "0"+ sec : sec;

  return hr + ':' + min + ":" + sec;//01:27:55
}

Answer 5

Human-readable code for human-readable output and you can extend this to light years or nanoseconds or what have you very intuitively. Obviously you'd want to convert this to a function and re-use some of those intermediate modulo calls.

second = 1000 
minute = second * 60
hour = minute * 60 
day = hour * 24

test = 3 * day + 2 * hour + 11 * minute + 58 * second

console.log(Math.floor(test / day))
console.log(Math.floor(test % day / hour))
console.log(Math.floor(test % day % hour / minute))
console.log(Math.floor(test % day % hour % minute / second))

Answer 6

Sorry, late to the party. The accepted answer did not cut it for me, so I wrote it myself.

Output:

2h 59s
1h 59m
1h
1h 59s
59m 59s
59s

Code (Typescript):

function timeConversion(duration: number) {
  const portions: string[] = [];

  const msInHour = 1000 * 60 * 60;
  const hours = Math.trunc(duration / msInHour);
  if (hours > 0) {
    portions.push(hours + 'h');
    duration = duration - (hours * msInHour);
  }

  const msInMinute = 1000 * 60;
  const minutes = Math.trunc(duration / msInMinute);
  if (minutes > 0) {
    portions.push(minutes + 'm');
    duration = duration - (minutes * msInMinute);
  }

  const seconds = Math.trunc(duration / 1000);
  if (seconds > 0) {
    portions.push(seconds + 's');
  }

  return portions.join(' ');
}

console.log(timeConversion((60 * 60 * 1000) + (59 * 60 * 1000) + (59 * 1000)));
console.log(timeConversion((60 * 60 * 1000) + (59 * 60 * 1000)              ));
console.log(timeConversion((60 * 60 * 1000)                                 ));
console.log(timeConversion((60 * 60 * 1000)                    + (59 * 1000)));
console.log(timeConversion(                   (59 * 60 * 1000) + (59 * 1000)));
console.log(timeConversion(                                      (59 * 1000)));
