This module aims to provide an extra display formatter for Date fields from the Date module. As the supplied timestamp gets older, less accurate information will be shown. Future dates and end dates are also supported.
Usage example
This module is intended for developers who need a timestamp as currently being featured on Facebook. Likewise the module could be used in conjuction with activity stream modules such as Message, Heartbeat and Activity.
Supported time strings
# second(s) ago / in # second(s)
# minute(s) ago / in # minute(s)
# hour(s) ago / in # hour(s)
yesterday / tomorrow
# days ago / in # days
# month(s) ago / in # month(s)
# year(s) ago / in # year(s)
If an end date has been provided, the module will return the correct time string depending on the situation:
from ### ago until ### ago
from ### ago until ### from now
from in ### until ### from now
+ some slight alterations for the cases yesterday / tomorrow
