Today, I’m going to show quick tips and tricks of JavaScript. Javascript provides all the features to manipulate time and date information from the browser.
I need to convert the second value into a time format in my recent project. In that project, I have the data in seconds format and need to convert it to 02:00:00 format. I wrote the following function, which takes one input as a parameter and outputs it in a specific time format. Sounds interesting; keep reading.
By using the following JavaScript, we can easily convert the second-to-time format. Let’s take a look at that JavaScript function:
JavaScript Function:
function convert_sec_to_time_format(time) {
if (typeof time == "undefined") {
return false
}
var hours = Math.floor(time / 3600)
time -= hours * 3600
var minutes = Math.floor(time / 60)
time -= minutes * 60
var seconds = parseInt(time % 60, 10)
return hours + ":" + (minutes < 10 ? "0" + minutes : minutes) + ":" + (seconds < 10 ? "0" + seconds : seconds)
}
// Calling the function.
var time_format = convert_sec_to_time_format(7200) // 7200 is referring second value
console.log(time_format) // 2:00:00 in the browser console.
I hope quick tips will help you convert second-to-time format using JavaScript. Enjoy!
