<relative-time>
webcomponent
A web component used when you want to render the relative time to a date.
It is setup with the intention to be used like you would the <time>
element.
Installation
npm install relative-time-webcomponent
Or
bower install relative-time-webcomponent
Requirements
Since web components are relatively new and not widely supported by most browsers, the following requirements will need to be included in your project in order for this to work properly across the majority of browsers that need to be supported today.
npm install document-register-element
npm install es6-symbol
And, for browsers that don’t natively support web components, you have to make sure
that you convert all the native HTMLElement
properties to function
s so that
the document-register-element
polyfill does not bork when creating this–and possibly
your–custom elements.
if (typeof HTMLElement !== 'function') {
Object.getOwnPropertyNames(window).forEach((name) => {
if (name.indexOf('HTML') === 0) {
let tagName = name.replace('HTML', '').replace('Element', '').toLowerCase();
tagName = tagName.length && tagName !== 'unknown'
? tagName
: 'div';
window[name] = () => {};
window[name].prototype = document.createElement(tagName);
}
});
}
Usage
<relative-time datetime="2016-04-24T19:38:00"></relative-time>
<relative-time datetime="2016-04-24T19:38:00" autoupdate></relative-time>
