This module will make the date API available to other modules. Designed to provide a light but flexible assortment of functions and constants, with more functionality in additional files that are not loaded unless other modules specifically include them.

Code

function date_format_interval($date, $granularity = 2) {

  // If no date is sent, then return nothing
  if (empty($date)) {
    return NULL;
  }
  $interval = REQUEST_TIME - $date
    ->format('U');
  if ($interval > 0) {
    return t('!time ago', array(
      '!time' => format_interval($interval, $granularity),
    ));
  }
  else {
    return format_interval(abs($interval), $granularity);
  }
}
