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”).

Implementations

The component Time is available in the following technologies:

Web Components
webreactvueangular
Native
react_native

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:

NameTypeSlottableDescription
timestring

The time to be printed. It can be a string or a timestamp. If none is provided, it will use the current one.

localestring

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-24boolean

Whether to use 24h format or not. Default: false.

with-secondsboolean

Whether to print the seconds or not. Default: false.

formatstring

The format to be used. Possible values: long, short, narrow.

as-relativestring

Whether to print the time as relative to current time or not. Possible values:year, quarter, month, week, day, hour, minute, second.

customobject

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:

html
<z-time custom='{"fill":"#06e7a3"}' />
custom-strstring

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:

html
<z-time custom-str="fill:#06e7a3" />
z-themestring

Sets the theme of the component. The possible values are light and dark.

html
<z-time z-theme="dark" />
