Convert seconds to human readable time duration

Question

How would I best convert 90060 (seconds) to a string of \"25h 1m\"?

Currently I\'m doing this in SQL:

SELECT 
  IF(
    HOUR(
      sec_to_time(
             


        

Answer 1

TIME_FORMAT(SEC_TO_TIME(task_records.time_spent),'%Hh %im')

According to comment:

DROP FUNCTION IF EXISTS GET_HOUR_MINUTES;
CREATE FUNCTION GET_HOUR_MINUTES(seconds INT)
  RETURNS VARCHAR(16)

  BEGIN
  DECLARE result VARCHAR(16);
  IF seconds >= 3600 THEN SET result = TIME_FORMAT(SEC_TO_TIME(seconds),'%kh %lm');
  ELSE SET result = TIME_FORMAT(SEC_TO_TIME(seconds),'%lm');
  RETURN result;
  END

DELIMETER ;

Usage:

SELECT GET_HOUR_MINUTES(task_records.time_spent) FROM table

Answer 2

you can use predefined function sec_to_time()

sec_to_time(number_of_seconds)

Answer 3

try this: (input your pure seconds time)

var hours = Math.floor(input/3600);
var minutes = Math.floor((input-hours*3600)/60);
var seconds = input-(minutes*60)-(hours*3600);
function convertTime(){
return hours":"minutes":"seconds;
}
