How to Rename preciseDiff Key in moment-timezone?

How to Rename key of preciseDiff Function in moment-timezone?

code:

var duration = momentz.preciseDiff(0, 1528791845);

output:

1 year 8 hours 17 minutes 6 seconds

I will want to translate year, month and ... to another language. 

year       año  
month      mes  
day        día  
hour       hora  
minute     minuto  
second     segundo
Solution

  • I would imagine you would have to replace it manually. Maybe another function?

    const es = {
    year: 'año',
    years: 'años',
    month: 'mes',  
    day: 'día',
    hour: 'hora',
    hours: 'horas',
    minute: 'minuto',
    minutes: 'minutos',
    second: 'segundo',
    seconds: 'segundos'
};
const translateWords = (dictionary, string) => string
    .split(' ')
    .map(word=>dictionary[word]||word)
    .join(' ');
const esString = translateWords(es, "1 year 8 hours 17 minutes 6 seconds");
console.log(esString); // 1 año 8 horas 17 minutos 6 segundos
