Moment.js - tomorrow, today and yesterday

Question

I\'d like the moment().fromNow() functionality, but when the date is close it is too precise - ex. I don\'t want it to show \'in 3 hours\' but \'today\' - so basica

Answer 1

In Moment.js, the from() method has the daily precision you're looking for:

var today = new Date();
var tomorrow = new Date();
var yesterday = new Date();
tomorrow.setDate(today.getDate()+1);
yesterday.setDate(today.getDate()-1);

moment(today).from(moment(yesterday)); // "in a day"
moment(today).from(moment(tomorrow)); // "a day ago" 

moment(yesterday).from(moment(tomorrow)); // "2 days ago" 
moment(tomorrow).from(moment(yesterday)); // "in 2 days"
