In this section, we are going to illustrate each user needs (requirements) and a design for each need (requirement)
Temporal.Duration
, which contains:
1000 seconds
, how could the user pass the value to the formatting function.new DurationFormat().format({hours: 3, minutes: 4});
Users want to determine several types of the formatting width as following
Format width | Example |
---|---|
Long | 1 hour and 50 minutes |
Short | 1 hr, 50 min |
Narrow | 1h 50m |
Digital | 1:50:00 |
style
and the value of this parameter may be one of the following strings:
"long"
"short"
"narrow"
"digital"
{ years: "long", months: "short", days: "narrow" }
.DurationFormat
does not do any arithmetic operations nor rounding on the input implicitly.
Instead, the user must edit the input to ensure the input is within the desired range.
To avoid accidentally omitting part of the duration, DurationFormat
always outputs all nonzero fields (except sub-second fields truncated by fractionalDigits
).
Callers who want to omit nonzero fields (for example, only showing the date or time portion of the duration) should edit the input duration.
const duration = { hours: 1, minutes: 2, seconds: 33 };
In most cases, users want to avoid displaying zero-value fields. All zero-valued fields are hidden by default. If you specify the style for a specific field, then it is always displayed, but you can override that behavior by also setting the display option for that particular field to "auto"
again explicitly.
For each field foo
, there is an option fooDisplay
that is set to "auto"
by default. Setting that option to "always"
causes that field to be displayed even if it is zero; for example, to always show the "day" field, set { dayDisplay: "always" }
. If you specify the style for that field by setting the foo
option, then the default for fooDisplay
becomes "always"
; for example, { day: "short" }
implies { day: "short", dayDisplay: "always" }
.
Adding the locale in string format as a first argument, or specifying a ranked list of locales as an array of string values.
Sometimes it is desirable to display the smallest sub-second unit not by itself but as a fraction of the immediately larger unit.
We allow users to specify a fractionalDigits
option that will display the smallest sub-second unit with display set to "auto"
as a fraction of the previous unit if it is non-zero and if these values have style set to "numeric"
. The number of digits used will be the value passed to this option. By default fractionalDigits
is undefined. In this case, exactly as many fractional digits as needed to display the whole duration are included. If rounding is necessary, we round toward 0.
const duration = { seconds: 12, milliseconds: 345, microseconds: 600 } ;
new Intl.DurationFormat('en', { style: "digital", fractionalDigits: 2 }).format(duration);
// "0:00:12.35"
new Intl.DurationFormat('en', { seconds: "numeric", fractionalDigits: 2 }).format(duration);
// "12.35"
> new Intl.DurationFormat('en', { seconds: "numeric", fractionalDigits: 5 }).format(duration);
// "12.34560"
> new Intl.DurationFormat('en', { seconds: "numeric"}).format(duration);
// "12.3456"

Additional decimal places will be truncated towards zero.
(Temporal.Duration.prototype.round
can be used to obtain different rounding behavior.)
Normally this option applies to fractional seconds, but this option actually applies to the largest seconds-or-smaller unit that uses the "numeric"
or "2-digit"
style.
For example, if options are { seconds: "narrow", milliseconds: "numeric", fractionalDigits: 4}
then the output is "12.3456 seconds".
If this option is omitted, only nonzero decimals will be displayed and trailing zeroes will be omitted.style
for all styles except "digital"
, for which units years till days default to "short"
and hours till nanoseconds default to "numeric"
.style
is undefined
, all values default to "short"
"auto"
if the corresponding style option is undefined
and "always"
otherwise."long"
and "short"
or between "narrow"
and "short"
. Others may use different representations for each one, e.g. "3 seconds", "3 secs", "3s"."numeric"
preceded by a unit of style "numeric"
or "2-digit"
should act like the style "2-digit"
was used instead. For example, {hours: 'numeric', minutes: 'numeric'}
can produce output like "3:08".Intl.DurationFormat#format
