I use Codeigniter and it has the timespan() function that returns the time as 1 Year, 10 Months, 2 Weeks, 5 Days, 10 Hours, 16 Minutes
.
What I'd like to do is only show the time formatted in x hours ago if the time is within the last 24 hours, otherwise just show a normal datetime.
I feel like there's got to be a function already made to do this but I haven't had any luck finding it.
This is the timespan function included with Codeigniter, how can I alter it?
/**
* Timespan
*
* Returns a span of seconds in this format:
* 10 days 14 hours 36 minutes 47 seconds
*
* @access public
* @param integer a number of seconds
* @param integer Unix timestamp
* @return integer
*/
if ( ! function_exists('timespan'))
{
function timespan($seconds = 1, $time = '')
{
$CI =& get_instance();
$CI->lang->load('date');
if ( ! is_numeric($seconds))
{
$seconds = 1;
}
if ( ! is_numeric($time))
{
$time = time();
}
if ($time <= $seconds)
{
$seconds = 1;
}
else
{
$seconds = $time - $seconds;

$str = '';
$years = floor($seconds / 31536000);
if ($years > 0)

Don't rely on a framework, especially a bad one, for everything!
This function will accept a string, a numeric (unix) timestamp, or a DateTime
object. It also accepts jQuery.now()
. Time may be in the future or past.
function time_ago($time=false, $just_now=false) {
if ($time instanceOf DateTime)
$time = $time->getTimestamp();
elseif (is_numeric($time))
$time = date('m/d/y h:i A', $time);
if (strtotime($time) === false)
$time = date('m/d/y h:i A', time());
$interval = date_create($time)->diff(date_create('now'));
$adjective = strtotime($time) > time() ? 'from now' : 'ago';
return (
$interval->days > 0 ?
$time : (
$interval->h < 1 && $interval->i < 1 && $just_now ?
'just now' :
(
$interval->h > 1 ?
$interval->h.' hour'.(
$interval->h > 1 ?
's' :
''
).' ago' :
$interval->i.' minutes'.' '.$adjective
)
)
);
}
echo time_ago('8/22/2012 5:00 PM'); // 3 hours ago
echo time_ago('8/21/2012 5:00 PM'); // 8/21/2012 5:00 PM
echo time_ago(time()); // 0 hours ago
echo time_ago(time(), true); // just now
echo time_ago(strtotime('5 days ago')); // 08/17/12 08:18 PM
echo time_ago(strtotime('5 hours ago')); // 5 hours ago
echo time_ago(strtotime('5 minutes ago')); // 5 minutes ago
echo time_ago(strtotime('+5 minutes')); // 5 minutes from now
echo time_ago('jQuery.now()', true); // just now
echo time_ago('sweet explosions, bro!', true); // just now
