Time string parser ●

If you have strings like 1h30m and want this to be a integer with minutes, this is for you.

The hour letters and minute letters can be customized and also multiple is allowed.

1h20m = 80
3:24 = 204
954 = 954

And if you have multiple hour letters you can set these in the constructor, see under usage, so you can end up with parsing multiple letters

2t20 = 140
3x84s = 264

New in 2.0

You can now add a low minute, meaning if set it to 4, then if you write 3, it will become 3 hours, if you write 5 it will still be 5 minutes.
By default the low minute variable is NULL, meaning its not used

Install

composer require lsv/timestringparser

or add

{
    "require": {
        "lsv/timestringparser": "^1.0"
    }
}

to your composer.json

Usage

By standard hour letter is h and minute letter is m but these can be customized in the constructor new TimestringParser(['h','t','u'], ['m','x','y']); now h, t and u can be used to parse the hour part of the time string, and the letters m, x, y can be used to parse the minute part of the time string

New in 2.0

You can set the low minute variable in the constructor new TimestringParser(['h','t','u'], ['m','x','y'], <low minute>);

It needs to be a integer

Examples

$timestrings = [
    '3:20', '1h 42m', '1u 22x', '3u55x',
    20, '1h', '48h84y', '3t994x'
];
$parser = new TimestringParser(['h','t','u'], ['m','x','y']);
foreach($timestrings as $string) {
    echo $parser->parseTimeString($string); // Return integers
}

Low minute example

$timestrings = [1, 2, '3', '4', 5];
$parser = new TimestringParser(['h'], ['m'], 3);
echo $parser->parseTimeString(1); // Returns 60
echo $parser->parseTimeString(2); // Returns 120
echo $parser->parseTimeString('3'); // Returns 180
echo $parser->parseTimeString('4'); // Returns 4
echo $parser->parseTimeString(5); // Returns 5
