date-time-slots (timeSlot) Library Overview:

date-time-slots (timeSlot) is a user-friendly JavaScript library for Node.js that simplifies the handling of time slots in projects. It provides easy-to-use methods to convert, manipulate, and generate time slots. Here's a quick rundown: This library aims to make working with time slots in Node.js projects straightforward and efficient. Developers can easily integrate it into their applications for effective time management.

install package

npm i date-time-slots

npm i @krishnapawar/date-time-slots

1 Time Conversion:

• railwayToNormalTimeConvert and formatTimeIn24Hour convert railway time to normal time and vice versa.
• normalToRailwayTimeConvert changes normal time to railway time.

railwayToNormalTimeConvert("13:00");
formatTimeIn24Hour("13:00");
normalToRailwayTimeConvert("01:00 AM");

Examples.

railwayToNormalTimeConvert method covert railway time into normal time example

    railwayToNormalTimeConvert("13:00");

we can also use same as formatTimeIn24Hour method covert railway time into normal time example

    formatTimeIn24Hour("13:00");

also apposite method same as normalToRalwayTimeConvert method covert normal time into railway time example

    normalToRalwayTimeConvert("01:00 AM");

2 Generating Time Slots:

• timeSlot generates an array of time slots based on provided start and end times. You can customize the duration and format of the slots.

let slots = timeSlot({ starting_time: '12:00', ending_time: '17:00', duration: 15 });

• Additional options include handling current time, specific dates, and blocking slots.

let slots = timeSlot({ isCurrent: true, date: "2023-11-05", starting_time: '12:00', ending_time: '17:00' });

timeSlot method covert into simple time slot it take three argument in json starting_time,ending_time,and duration, and it give output in array example ['12:00','12:15','12:30','12:45','01:00','01:15'] example paylode { duration:15, date: "2023-11-05"T10:13:02.481Z, isCurrent: true, starting_time: '12:00', ending_time: '17:00' }

    let data = timeSlot({starting_time: '12:00', ending_time: '17:00' } );

we can pass time as 12 hour format or 24 format is this method it give as same output.

    let data = timeSlot({starting_time: '11:00 PM', ending_time: '01:00 AM' } );

If we want check time with current time and show only remening slot only. then we have to use keyword (isCurrent:true) in this object.

    let data = timeSlot({ isCurrent: true,  starting_time: '12:00', ending_time: '17:00' } );

If we want check time with current time and current date then we have to pass date as well in the object with { date:"2023-10-04", isCurrent:true } and it show only remening slot only in current.

    let data = timeSlot({ date: "2023-11-05", isCurrent: true,  starting_time: '12:00', ending_time: '17:00' } );

By default It make 15 minuts time slot If you want to change time slot duration you can chang using keyword => duration:30,

    let data = timeSlot({ duration: 15, date: "2023-11-05", isCurrent: true,  starting_time: '12:00', ending_time: '17:00' } );

If you want show slot current time to next slot then use keyword next:true.

    let data = timeSlot({ 
        duration: 15, 
        date: "2023-11-05", 
        isCurrent: true,  
        starting_time: '12:00', 
        ending_time: '17:00', 
        next:true 
        } );

if you want slot in 24 hour time you can use keyword =>isNotRailwayTime:true, It give you time slot in 24 hour time.

    let data = timeSlot({ 
        duration: 15, 
        date: "2023-11-05", 
        isCurrent: true,  
        starting_time: '12:00', 
        ending_time: '17:00', 
        next:true,
        isNotRailwayTime:true, 
        } );

If you want to block time slot with pertitucler date we have to use => blockSchedule:[ // "12:15 PM", // "12:30 PM", // "12:45 PM", "12:00", "14:00", ] with array object with block slot and date with keyword =>date:"2023-10-04". exmaple

    let data = timeSlot({ 
        duration: 15, 
        date: "2023-11-05", 
        isCurrent: true,  
        starting_time: '12:00', 
        ending_time: '17:00', 
        next:true,
        isNotRailwayTime:true,
        blockSchedule:[
            // "12:15 PM",
            // "12:30 PM",
            // "12:45 PM",
            "12:00",
            "14:00",
        ]  
        } );

3 Pair of Time Slots:

• startToEndTimeSlot generates pairs of start and end times based on given parameters. Similar customization options are available.

let timePairs = startToEndTimeSlot("11:00 PM", "01:00 AM", { isCurrent: true, date: "2023-10-04" });

• startToEndTimeSlot method covert into pair of time slot in object format. it take three argument in startToEndTimeSlot() method, starting_time,ending_time, and object, and object is optional. we can pass time as 12 hour format or 24 format is this method it give as same output. exmaple given below.

12 hour format

let data =startToEndTimeSlot("11:00 PM","01:00 AM");

24 hour format

let data =startToEndTimeSlot("11:00","'17:00'");

• If we want check time with current time and show only remening slot only. then we have to use keyword (isCurrent:true) in this object.

let data =startToEndTimeSlot("11:00 PM","01:00 AM",{
    isCurrent:true
});

• If we want check time with current time and current date then we have to pass date as well in the object with { date:"2023-10-04", isCurrent:true } and it show only remening slot only in current.

let data =startToEndTimeSlot("11:00 PM","01:00 AM",{
    date:"2023-10-04",
    isCurrent:true
});

• If you want to block time slot with pertitucler date we have to use =>blockSchedule:[{"slot": "9:15 PM - 9:30 PM"}] with array object with block slot and date with keyword =>date:"2023-10-04". exmaple

let data =startToEndTimeSlot("11:00 PM","01:00 AM",{
        blockSchedule:[
                {
                    "slot": "9:15 PM - 9:30 PM"
                },
                {
                    "slot": "9:45 PM - 10:00 PM"
                }
            ],
        date:"2023-10-04",
        isCurrent:true
    });

• By default It make 15 minuts time slot If you want to change time slot duration you can chang using keyword => duration:30,

let data =startToEndTimeSlot("11:00 PM","01:00 AM",{
        blockSchedule:[
                {
                    "slot": "9:15 PM - 9:30 PM"
                },
                {
                    "slot": "9:45 PM - 10:00 PM"
                }
            ],
        date:"2023-10-04",
        isCurrent:true,
        duration:30,
    });

• if you want slot in 24 hour time you can use keyword =>isNotRailwayTime:true, It give you time slot in 24 hour time.

let data =startToEndTimeSlot("11:00 PM","01:00 AM",{
        blockSchedule:[
                {
                    "slot": "9:15 PM - 9:30 PM"
                },
                {
                    "slot": "9:45 PM - 10:00 PM"
                }
            ],
        date:"2023-10-04",
        isCurrent:true,
        duration:30,
        isNotRailwayTime:true,
    });

• If you want date with slot you can use key word =>withDate:true,

let data =startToEndTimeSlot("11:00 PM","01:00 AM",{
        blockSchedule:[
                {
                    "slot": "9:15 PM - 9:30 PM"
                },
                {
                    "slot": "9:45 PM - 10:00 PM"
                }
            ],
        date:"2023-10-04",
        isCurrent:true,
        withDate:true,
        duration:30,
        isNotRailwayTime:true,
    });

• If we want response in start,end in form of keys and values object. then we have to use keyword =>startToEndObj:true,

let data =startToEndTimeSlot("11:00 PM","01:00 AM",{
        blockSchedule:[
                {
                    "start": "10:45",
                    "end": "11:00",
                    "date": "2023-11-13"
                },
                {
                    "start": "11:00",
                    "end": "11:15",
                    "date": "2023-11-13"
                }
            ],
        date:"2023-11-13",
        isCurrent:true,
        withDate:true,
        duration:30,
        isNotRailwayTime:true,
        startToEndObj:true,
    });
