Basically when passing an array it ignores the normal tokens in favor of custom ones. However this is a good feature request. Assuming you only need English then I've confirmed that this should work:
Date.getLocale('en').addFormat('(\\d+)m (ago|from now)', ['minutes', 'sign'])
Sounds great, if I can understand the parsing works I will try to help out as well. Regex is definately not one of my strong points.
@andrewplummer I have tried that and various other combinations. I think its just defaulting to minutes is whatever you put in there and not the 'ago' part.
I tried this on the Sugar site in console and I get this result:
`Date.getLocale('en').addFormat('(\d+)m (ago|from now)', ['minutes', 'sign'])
undefined Date.create('26m ago');
Thu Apr 26 2018 09:26:00 GMT-0400 (EDT)` I think its just defaulting to 26 mintues because the time I put it in was at 9:46 so I think the ago part is not working atm
Alternatively I tried this as well, and I am still getting issues.
Date.getLocale('en').addFormat('{mm}m {sign}');
But same it defaults to minutes but not the ago part.
I am trying to parse when the date reads 26m ago or 22h ago.
I assumed
Date.getLocale('en').addFormat('(\\d+)m {sign}', ['minutes']);
would work. However, I am without luck. Is there a way to use the regular tokens and custom arguements as well>
