Time distance in words
Opened this issue · 3 comments

The way taw works is it converts the given time to a time delta and then formats the delta.
Sometimes the application has a delta already, it's redundant to create a time from it to give to taw for it to calculate the delta back and format.
Thoughts on adding a time_distance_in_words
method for this use case?

I'd prefer a keyword argument named delta
for this, on the already available method Taw.time_ago_in_words
.
Would you be interested in implementing this?

It works I suppose but is rather verbose:
Taw.time_ago_in_words(120, delta: true)
vs
Taw.time_distance_in_words(120)
Since Taw has its own namespace what is the concern with adding a separate method?
shime commented
It seems related to the feature already provided with the .time_ago_in_words
.
