Time

Timestamps can be absolute or relative:

• Absolute time: prints the given time in a localized way. (e.g. 9:27 PM)
• Relative time: prints the relative time between the current time (when the component is rendered) and the given one in a short sentence. Works for past and future (e.g. “25 minutes ago” or “in 10 hours”).

Parameters

Parameters

Parameters are the attributes that can be used to customize the component when using it in a project. They apply to the WebComponents implementation and wrappers and to the Vue and React CSS implementations. Some parameters names change between the implementations, in order to follow the conventions of each technology and framework.

For example, the param model is named ngModel in Angular, modelValue in Vue, but stays as model in React.

By default, all the parameters are optional or can be set in different, except for the ones marked as required

The parametrization of the component can be done with the following custom params or properties:

Name	Type	Slot	Description
time	string		The time to be printed. It can be a string or a timestamp. If none is provided, it will use the current one.
locale	string		The locale parameter is used to set the locale of the component. The value must be part of the registered locales in ZDS. If not set, the default locale of the document will be used. Have a look to the localization mechanisms.
format-24	boolean		Whether to use 24h format or not. Default: false.
with-seconds	boolean		Whether to print the seconds or not. Default: false.
format	string		The format to be used. Possible values: long, short, narrow.
as-relative	string		Whether to print the time as relative to current time or not. Possible values:year, quarter, month, week, day, hour, minute, second.
custom	object		A record of key-value pairs to set the CSS custom tokens. It's a complex attribute set as an JS object in stringified JSON format. Example: <z-time custom='{"fill":"#06e7a3"}' /> Check the available values in the customization section.
custom-str	string		The stringified version of the custom property. It follows the pattern key:value;key:value;, with the possibility of setting multiple values and spaces between the punctuation characters. Example: <z-time custom-str="fill:#06e7a3" />
z-theme	string		Sets the theme of the component. The possible values are light and dark. <z-time z-theme="dark" />
