pretty-time 
Easily format the time from node.js process.hrtime. Works with timescales ranging from weeks to nanoseconds.
Please consider following this project's author, Jon Schlinkert, and consider starring the project to show your :heart: and support.
Install
Install with npm:
$ npm install --save pretty-time
Usage
var pretty = require('pretty-time');
var start = process.hrtime();
var time = process.hrtime(start);
console.log(pretty(time));
//=> 3μs
API
By default, when no time increment is given as the second argument, the closest timescale is used (e.g. most granular without being less than zero).
Examples:
pretty([1200708, 795428088]);
//=> '2w'
pretty([800708, 795428088]);
//=> '1w'
pretty([400708, 795428088]);
//=> '5d'
pretty([70708, 795428088]);
//=> '20h'
pretty([12708, 795428088]);
//=> '4h'
pretty([3708, 795428088]);
//=> '1h'
pretty([208, 795428088]);
//=> '3m'
pretty([20, 795428088]);
//=> '21s'
pretty([0, 795428088]);
//=> '795ms'
pretty([0, 000428088]);
//=> '428μs'
pretty([0, 000000088]);
//=> '88ns'
pretty([0, 000000018]);
//=> '18ns'
Minimum time increment
(All of the following examples use [6740, 795428088] as the hrtime array.)
This value is passed as the second argument and determines how granular to make the time.
Examples
pretty(time, 'h');
//=> '2h'
pretty(time, 'm');
//=> '1h 52m'
pretty(time, 's');
//=> '1h 52m 21s'
Valid time increments
Any of the following may be used:
ns | nano | nanosecond | nanosecondsμs | micro | microsecond | microsecondsms | milli | millisecond | millisecondss | sec | second | secondsm | min | minute | minutesh | hr | hour | hoursd | day | daysw | wk | week | weeks
