+# ms

+
+Use this package to easily convert various time formats to milliseconds.
+
+## Examples
+
+```js
+ms('2 days') // 172800000
+ms('1d') // 86400000
+ms('10h') // 36000000
+ms('2.5 hrs') // 9000000
+ms('2h') // 7200000
+ms('1m') // 60000
+ms('5s') // 5000
+ms('1y') // 31557600000
+ms('100') // 100
+```
+
+### Convert from milliseconds
+
+```js
+ms(60000) // "1m"
+ms(2 * 60000) // "2m"
+ms(ms('10 hours')) // "10h"
+```
+
+### Time format written-out
+
+```js
+ms(60000, { long: true }) // "1 minute"
+ms(2 * 60000, { long: true }) // "2 minutes"
+ms(ms('10 hours'), { long: true }) // "10 hours"
+```
+
+## Features
+
+- Works both in [node](https://nodejs.org) and in the browser.
+- If a number is supplied to `ms`, a string with a unit is returned.
+- If a string that contains the number is supplied, it returns it as a number (e.g.: it returns `100` for `'100'`).
+- If you pass a string with a number and a valid unit, the number of equivalent ms is returned.

+## Caught a bug?
+
+1. [Fork](https://help.github.com/articles/fork-a-repo/) this repository to your own GitHub account and then [clone](https://help.github.com/articles/cloning-a-repository/) it to your local device
+2. Link the package to the global module directory: `npm link`
+3. Within the module you want to test your local development instance of ms, just link it to the dependencies: `npm link ms`. Instead of the default one from npm, node will now use your clone of ms!
+
+As always, you can run the tests using: `npm test`
