# ms [![CI](https://github.com/lukeed/ms/workflows/CI/badge.svg)](https://github.com/lukeed/ms/actions) [![codecov](https://badgen.net/codecov/c/github/lukeed/ms)](https://codecov.io/gh/lukeed/ms)
> A tiny (414B) and [fast](#benchmarks) utility to convert milliseconds to and from strings.

***NOTICE:** This is a fork of [vercel/ms](https://github.com/vercel/ms)!*<br>
In June 2019, I [opened a PR](https://github.com/zeit/ms/pull/120) with signficiant performance and code size improvements. After nearly 2 years of silence, it was eventually closed. :cry: A year into my wait, I started anew (this repo), hoping to improve upon my own improvements.

This module is delivered as:
* **CommonJS**: [`dist/index.js`](https://unpkg.com/@lukeed/ms/dist/index.js)
* **ES Module**: [`dist/index.mjs`](https://unpkg.com/@lukeed/ms/dist/index.mjs)
* **UMD**: [`dist/index.min.js`](https://unpkg.com/@lukeed/ms/dist/index.min.js)
## Install
```
$ npm install --save @lukeed/ms
```
## Usage
```js
import { parse, format } from '@lukeed/ms';
// string => number
parse('2 days'); //=> 172800000
parse('1d'); //=> 86400000
parse('10h'); //=> 36000000
parse('2.5 hrs'); //=> 9000000
parse('2h'); //=> 7200000
parse('1m'); //=> 60000
parse('5s'); //=> 5000
parse('1y'); //=> 31557600000
parse('100'); //=> 100
parse('-3 days'); //=> -259200000
parse('-1h'); //=> -3600000
parse('-200'); //=> -200
// number => string
format(60000); //=> '1m'
format(2 * 60000); //=> '2m'
format(-3 * 60000); //=> '-3m'
format(parse('10 hours')); //=> '10h'
// number => string (long)
format(60000, true); //=> '1 minute'
format(2 * 60000, true); //=> '2 minutes'
format(-3 * 60000, true); //=> '-3 minutes'
format(parse('10 hours'), true); //=> '10 hours'
```
## API
### ms.parse(input)
Returns: `Number`
Parses the input string, returning the number of milliseconds.
#### input
Type: `String`
The human-readable time string; eg: `10min`, `10m`, `10 minutes`.
### ms.format(milli, long?)
Returns: `Number`
Formats the millisecond count to a human-readable time string.
> **Important:** The output will be rounded to the nearest whole integer.
#### milli
Type: `Number`
The number of milliseconds.
#### long
Type: `Boolean`<br>
Default: `false`
Whether or not the output should use the interval's long/full form; eg `hour` or `hours` instead of `h`.
> **Note:** When `long`, the count and interval will be separated by a single space.<br>Also, when `long`, the interval may be pluralized; eg `1 second` vs `2 seconds`.

## Credits
This is obviously a fork of [zeit/ms](https://github.com/zeit/ms).
I opened a [PR in June 2019](https://github.com/zeit/ms/pull/120) that introduced significant performance gains and code reduction &mdash; it was ignored for nearly two years. This repository is a from-scratch re-implementation that takes the goals of that PR a bit further.
