Package Exports
- parse-input-time
- parse-input-time/dist/human-input-time-parser.js
This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (parse-input-time) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.
Readme
parse-input-time
A lightweight, zero-dependency JavaScript library for parsing human-readable time strings into a structured time format. Ideal for applications requiring user-friendly time input fields that need to be parsed into a format that can be easily manipulated or compared.
Features
- Parses various human-readable time formats (e.g., "1a", "10:30p", "1300").
- Handles AM/PM inputs and converts them into 24-hour time format.
- Validates input to ensure it represents a valid time.
- Automatically trims whitespace from input strings.
- Returns undefined for invalid time inputs, allowing for easy error handling.
Installation
Use npm to install parse-input-time:
npm install parse-input-timeUsage
Import parseInputTime from the package and pass a time string to it. The function returns an object with hour and minute properties if the input is valid, or undefined if the input is invalid.
import { parseInputTime } from 'parse-input-time';
const time = parseInputTime('10:30p');
console.log(time); // { hour: 22, minute: 30 }Examples
// Valid time inputs
parseInputTime('1a'); // { hour: 1, minute: 0 }
parseInputTime('10:30p'); // { hour: 22, minute: 30 }
parseInputTime('1300'); // { hour: 13, minute: 0 }
// Invalid time inputs
parseInputTime('25:00'); // undefined
parseInputTime('abc'); // undefined
parseInputTime(''); // undefined
