TimeSpan “pretty time” format in C#

Question

Typing in the title to this question brought me to this question. I\'m looking for the same thing, but something perhaps less statically formatted if you get what I mean?

Answer 1

With C# 7:

string FormatTimeSpan(TimeSpan timeSpan)
{
    string FormatPart(int quantity, string name) => quantity > 0 ? $"{quantity} {name}{(quantity > 1 ? "s" : "")}" : null;
    return string.Join(", ", new[] { FormatPart(timeSpan.Days, "day"), FormatPart(timeSpan.Hours, "hour"), FormatPart(timeSpan.Minutes, "minute") }.Where(x => x != null));
}
