Convert seconds to HH-MM-SS with JavaScript?

Javascript Date Time Date Format Time Format

Javascript Problem Overview

How can I convert seconds to an HH-MM-SS string using JavaScript?

Javascript Solutions

Solution 1 - Javascript

You can manage to do this without any external JavaScript library with the help of JavaScript Date method like following:

var date = new Date(null);
date.setSeconds(SECONDS); // specify value for SECONDS here
var result = date.toISOString().substr(11, 8);

Or, as per @Frank's comment; a one liner:

new Date(SECONDS * 1000).toISOString().substr(11, 8);

Solution 2 - Javascript

Updated (2020):

Please use @Frank's one line solution:

new Date(SECONDS * 1000).toISOString().substring(11, 16)

If SECONDS<3600 and if you want to show only MM:SS then use below code:

new Date(SECONDS * 1000).toISOString().substring(14, 19)

It is by far the best solution.

Old answer:

Use the Moment.js library.

Solution 3 - Javascript

I don't think any built-in feature of the standard Date object will do this for you in a way that's more convenient than just doing the math yourself.

hours = Math.floor(totalSeconds / 3600);
totalSeconds %= 3600;
minutes = Math.floor(totalSeconds / 60);
seconds = totalSeconds % 60;

Example:

let totalSeconds = 28565;
let hours = Math.floor(totalSeconds / 3600);
totalSeconds %= 3600;
let minutes = Math.floor(totalSeconds / 60);
let seconds = totalSeconds % 60;

console.log("hours: " + hours);
console.log("minutes: " + minutes);
console.log("seconds: " + seconds);

// If you want strings with leading zeroes:
minutes = String(minutes).padStart(2, "0");
hours = String(hours).padStart(2, "0");
seconds = String(seconds).padStart(2, "0");
console.log(hours + ":" + minutes + ":" + seconds);

Solution 4 - Javascript

I know this is kinda old, but...

ES2015:

var toHHMMSS = (secs) => {
    var sec_num = parseInt(secs, 10)
    var hours   = Math.floor(sec_num / 3600)
    var minutes = Math.floor(sec_num / 60) % 60
    var seconds = sec_num % 60

    return [hours,minutes,seconds]
        .map(v => v < 10 ? "0" + v : v)
        .filter((v,i) => v !== "00" || i > 0)
        .join(":")
}

It will output:

toHHMMSS(129600) // 36:00:00
toHHMMSS(13545) // 03:45:45
toHHMMSS(180) // 03:00
toHHMMSS(18) // 00:18

Solution 5 - Javascript

As Cleiton pointed out in his answer, moment.js can be used for this:

moment().startOf('day')
        .seconds(15457)
        .format('H:mm:ss');

Solution 6 - Javascript

Here's a simple function for converting times that might help

function formatSeconds(seconds) {
	var date = new Date(1970,0,1);
	date.setSeconds(seconds);
	return date.toTimeString().replace(/.*(\d{2}:\d{2}:\d{2}).*/, "$1");
}

Solution 7 - Javascript

This does the trick:

function secondstotime(secs)
{
	var t = new Date(1970,0,1);
	t.setSeconds(secs);
	var s = t.toTimeString().substr(0,8);
	if(secs > 86399)
		s = Math.floor((t - Date.parse("1/1/70")) / 3600000) + s.substr(2);
	return s;
}

(Sourced from here)

Solution 8 - Javascript

var  timeInSec = "661"; //even it can be string

String.prototype.toHHMMSS = function () { 
   /* extend the String by using prototypical inheritance */
    var seconds = parseInt(this, 10); // don't forget the second param
    var hours   = Math.floor(seconds / 3600);
    var minutes = Math.floor((seconds - (hours * 3600)) / 60);
    seconds = seconds - (hours * 3600) - (minutes * 60);

    if (hours   < 10) {hours   = "0"+hours;}
    if (minutes < 10) {minutes = "0"+minutes;}
    if (seconds < 10) {seconds = "0"+seconds;}
    var time    = hours+':'+minutes+':'+seconds;
    return time;
}

alert("5678".toHHMMSS());   // "01:34:38"
console.log(timeInSec.toHHMMSS());   //"00:11:01"

we can make this function lot shorter and crisp but that decreases the readability, so we will write it as simple as possible and as stable as possible.

or you can check this working [here][1]:

Solution 9 - Javascript

Try this:

function toTimeString(seconds) {
  return (new Date(seconds * 1000)).toUTCString().match(/(\d\d:\d\d:\d\d)/)[0];
}

Solution 10 - Javascript

I think the most general (and cryptic) solution could be this

function hms(seconds) {
  return [3600, 60]
    .reduceRight(
      (pipeline, breakpoint) => remainder =>
        [Math.floor(remainder / breakpoint)].concat(pipeline(remainder % breakpoint)),
      r => [r]
    )(seconds)
    .map(amount => amount.toString().padStart(2, '0'))
    .join('-');
}

Or to copy & paste the shortest version

function hms(seconds) {
  return [3600, 60]
    .reduceRight(
      (p, b) => r => [Math.floor(r / b)].concat(p(r % b)),
      r => [r]
    )(seconds)
    .map(a => a.toString().padStart(2, '0'))
    .join('-');
}

Some example outputs:

> hms(0)
< "00-00-00"

> hms(5)
< "00-00-05"

> hms(60)
< "00-01-00"

> hms(3785)
< "01-03-05"

> hms(37850)
< "10-30-50"

> hms(378500)
< "105-08-20"

How it works

Algorithm

To get hours you divide total seconds by 3600 and floor it.
To get minutes you divide remainder by 60 and floor it.
To get seconds you just use the remainder.

It would also be nice to keep individual amounts in an array for easier formatting.

For example given the input of 3785s the output should be [1, 3, 5], that is 1 hour, 3 minutes and 5 seconds.

Creating pipeline

Naming the 3600 and 60 constants "breakpoints" you can write this algorithm into function as this

function divideAndAppend(remainder, breakpoint, callback) {
  return [Math.floor(remainder / breakpoint)].concat(callback(remainder % breakpoint));
}

It returns an array where first item is the amount for given breakpoint and the rest of the array is given by the callback. Reusing the divideAndAppend in callback function will give you a pipeline of composed divideAndAppend functions. Each one of these computes amount per given breakpoint and append it to the array making your desired output.

Then you also need the "final" callback that ends this pipeline. In another words you used all breakpoints and now you have only the remainder. Since you have already the answer at 3) you should use some sort of identity function, in this case remainder => [remainder].

You can now write the pipeline like this

let pipeline = r3 => divideAndAppend(
    r3, 
    3600, 
    r2 => divideAndAppend(
        r2, 
        60, 
        r1 => [r1]));

> pipeline(3785)
< [1, 3, 5]

Cool right?

Generalizing using for-loop

Now you can generalize with a variable amount of breakpoints and create a for-loop that will compose individial divideAndAppend functions into the pipeline. You start with the identity function r1 => [r1], then use the 60 breakpoint and finally use the 3600 breakpoint.

let breakpoints = [60, 3600];
let pipeline = r => [r];

for (const b of breakpoints) {
  const previousPipeline = pipeline;
  pipeline = r => divideAndAppend(r, b, previousPipeline);
}

> pipeline(3785)
< [1, 3, 5]

Using `Array.prototype.reduce()`

Now you can rewrite this for-loop into reducer for shorter and more functional code. In other words rewrite function composition into the reducer.

let pipeline = [60, 3600].reduce(
  (ppln, b) => r => divideAndAppend(r, b, ppln),
  r => [r]
);

> pipeline(3785)
< [1, 3, 5]

The accumulator ppln is the pipeline and you are composing it using the previous version of it. The initial pipeline is r => [r].

You can now inline the function divideAndAppend and use Array.prototype.reduceRight which is the same as [].reverse().reduce(...) to make the breakpoints definitions more natural.

let pipeline = [3600, 60]
    .reduceRight(
      (ppln, b) => r => [Math.floor(r / b)].concat(ppln(r % b)),
      r => [r]
    );

Which is the final form. Then you just appy mapping to string with padded 0's on left and join the strings with : separator;

More generalizations

Wrapping the reducer into function

function decompose(total, breakpoints) {
  return breakpoints.reduceRight(
    (p, b) => r => [Math.floor(r / b)].concat(p(r % b)),
    r => [r]
  )(total);
}

> decompose(3785, [3600, 60])
< [1, 3, 5]

you now have very general algorithm you can work with. For example:

Convert easily (the weird) us length standards

Given the standards

Unit	Divisions
1 foot	12 inches
1 yard	3 feet
1 mile	1760 yards

> decompose(123_456, [1760 * 3 * 12, 3 * 12, 12])
< [1, 1669, 1, 0]

123456 in = 1 mi, 1669 yd, 1 feet and 0 in

Or you can somewhat convert to decimal or binary representations

> decompose(123_456, [100_000, 10_000, 1000, 100, 10])
< [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6]

> decompose(127, [128, 64, 32, 16, 8, 4, 2])
< [0, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1]

Works also with floating point breakpoints

Since Javascript supports mod operator with floating point numbers, you can also do

> decompose(26.5, [20, 2.5])
< [1, 2, 1.5]

The edge case of no breakpoints is also naturally covered

> decompose(123, [])
< [123]

Solution 11 - Javascript

Here is an extension to Number class. toHHMMSS() converts seconds to an hh:mm:ss string.

Number.prototype.toHHMMSS = function() {
  var hours = Math.floor(this / 3600) < 10 ? ("00" + Math.floor(this / 3600)).slice(-2) : Math.floor(this / 3600);
  var minutes = ("00" + Math.floor((this % 3600) / 60)).slice(-2);
  var seconds = ("00" + (this % 3600) % 60).slice(-2);
  return hours + ":" + minutes + ":" + seconds;
}

// Usage: [number variable].toHHMMSS();

// Here is a simple test
var totalseconds = 1234;
document.getElementById("timespan").innerHTML = totalseconds.toHHMMSS();

// HTML of the test
<div id="timespan"></div>

Solution 12 - Javascript

Easy to follow version for noobies:

 var totalNumberOfSeconds = YOURNUMBEROFSECONDS;
 var hours = parseInt( totalNumberOfSeconds / 3600 );
 var minutes = parseInt( (totalNumberOfSeconds - (hours * 3600)) / 60 );
 var seconds = Math.floor((totalNumberOfSeconds - ((hours * 3600) + (minutes * 60))));
 var result = (hours < 10 ? "0" + hours : hours) + ":" + (minutes < 10 ? "0" + minutes : minutes) + ":" + (seconds  < 10 ? "0" + seconds : seconds);
 console.log(result);

Solution 13 - Javascript

This function should do it :

var convertTime = function (input, separator) {
    var pad = function(input) {return input < 10 ? "0" + input : input;};
    return [
        pad(Math.floor(input / 3600)),
        pad(Math.floor(input % 3600 / 60)),
        pad(Math.floor(input % 60)),
    ].join(typeof separator !== 'undefined' ?  separator : ':' );
}

Without passing a separator, it uses : as the (default) separator :

time = convertTime(13551.9941351); // --> OUTPUT = 03:45:51

If you want to use - as a separator, just pass it as the second parameter:

time = convertTime(1126.5135155, '-'); // --> OUTPUT = 00-18-46

Solution 14 - Javascript

Chiming in on this old thread -- the OP stated HH:MM:SS, and many of the solutions work, until you realize you need more than 24 hours listed. And maybe you don't want more than a single line of code. Here you go:

d=(s)=>{f=Math.floor;g=(n)=>('00'+n).slice(-2);return f(s/3600)+':'+g(f(s/60)%60)+':'+g(s%60)}

It returns H+:MM:SS. To use it, simply use:

d(91260);     // returns "25:21:00"
d(960);       // returns "0:16:00"

...I tried to get it to use the least amount of code possible, for a nice one-liner approach.

For the special case of HH:MM:SS.MS (eq: "00:04:33.637") as used by FFMPEG to specify milliseconds.

> [-][HH:]MM:SS[.m...] > > HH expresses the number of hours, MM the number of minutes for a > maximum of 2 digits, and SS the number of seconds for a maximum of 2 > digits. The m at the end expresses decimal value for SS.

/* HH:MM:SS.MS to (FLOAT)seconds ---------------*/
function timerToSec(timer){
   let vtimer = timer.split(":")
   let vhours = +vtimer[0]
   let vminutes = +vtimer[1]
   let vseconds = parseFloat(vtimer[2])
   return vhours * 3600 + vminutes * 60 + vseconds
}

/* Seconds to (STRING)HH:MM:SS.MS --------------*/
function secToTimer(sec){
  let o = new Date(0)

/* Example: 7hours, 4 minutes, 33 seconds and 637 milliseconds */
const t = "07:04:33.637"

Outside the question, those functions written in php:

<?php

function timerToSec($timer){
  $vtimer = explode(":",$timer);
  $vhours = (int)$vtimer[0];
  $vminutes = (int)$vtimer[1];
  $vseconds = (float)$vtimer[2];
  return $vhours * 3600 + $vminutes * 60 + $vseconds;
}
/* Seconds to (STRING)HH:MM:SS -----------------*/
function secToTimer($sec){
  return explode(" ", date("H:i:s", $sec))[0];  
}

Solution 16 - Javascript

After looking at all the answers and not being happy with most of them, this is what I came up with. I know I am very late to the conversation, but here it is anyway.

function secsToTime(secs){
  var time = new Date(); 
  // create Date object and set to today's date and time
  time.setHours(parseInt(secs/3600) % 24);
  time.setMinutes(parseInt(secs/60) % 60);
  time.setSeconds(parseInt(secs%60));
  time = time.toTimeString().split(" ")[0];
  // time.toString() = "HH:mm:ss GMT-0800 (PST)"
  // time.toString().split(" ") = ["HH:mm:ss", "GMT-0800", "(PST)"]
  // time.toTimeString().split(" ")[0]; = "HH:mm:ss"
  return time;
}

I create a new Date object, change the time to my parameters, convert the Date Object to a time string, and removed the additional stuff by splitting the string and returning only the part that need.

I thought I would share this approach, since it removes the need for regex, logic and math acrobatics to get the results in "HH:mm:ss" format, and instead it relies on built in methods.

You may want to take a look at the documentation here: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/Date

Solution 19 - Javascript

I just wanted to give a little explanation to the nice answer above:

var totalSec = new Date().getTime() / 1000;
var hours = parseInt( totalSec / 3600 ) % 24;
var minutes = parseInt( totalSec / 60 ) % 60;
var seconds = totalSec % 60;

var result = (hours < 10 ? "0" + hours : hours) + "-" + (minutes < 10 ? "0" + minutes : minutes) + "-" + (seconds  < 10 ? "0" + seconds : seconds);

On the second line, since there are 3600 seconds in 1 hour, we divide the total number of seconds by 3600 to get the total number of hours. We use parseInt to strip off any decimal. If totalSec was 12600 (3 and half hours), then parseInt( totalSec / 3600 ) would return 3, since we will have 3 full hours. Why do we need the % 24 in this case? If we exceed 24 hours, let's say we have 25 hours (90000 seconds), then the modulo here will take us back to 1 again, rather than returning 25. It is confining the result within a 24 hour limit, since there are 24 hours in one day.

When you see something like this:

25 % 24

Think of it like this:

25 mod 24 or what is the remainder when we divide 25 by 24

Have you tried adding seconds to a Date object?

Date.prototype.addSeconds = function(seconds) {
	this.setSeconds(this.getSeconds() + seconds);
};
var dt = new Date();
dt.addSeconds(1234);

Here is a function to convert seconds to hh-mm-ss format based on powtac's answer here

jsfiddle

/** 
 * Convert seconds to hh-mm-ss format.
 * @param {number} totalSeconds - the total seconds to convert to hh- mm-ss
**/
var SecondsTohhmmss = function(totalSeconds) {
  var hours   = Math.floor(totalSeconds / 3600);
  var minutes = Math.floor((totalSeconds - (hours * 3600)) / 60);
  var seconds = totalSeconds - (hours * 3600) - (minutes * 60);

  // round seconds
  seconds = Math.round(seconds * 100) / 100

  var result = (hours < 10 ? "0" + hours : hours);
      result += "-" + (minutes < 10 ? "0" + minutes : minutes);
      result += "-" + (seconds  < 10 ? "0" + seconds : seconds);
  return result;
}

Example use

var seconds = SecondsTohhmmss(70);
console.log(seconds);
// logs 00-01-10

Solution 22 - Javascript

There are lots of options of solve this problem, and obvious there are good option suggested about, But I wants to add one more optimized code here

function formatSeconds(sec) {
     return [(sec / 3600), ((sec % 3600) / 60), ((sec % 3600) % 60)]
            .map(v => v < 10 ? "0" + parseInt(v) : parseInt(v))
            .filter((i, j) => i !== "00" || j > 0)
            .join(":");
}

if you don't wants formatted zero with less then 10 number, you can use

function formatSeconds(sec) {
  return parseInt(sec / 3600) + ':' + parseInt((sec % 3600) / 60) + ':' + parseInt((sec % 3600) % 60);

}

secToHHMMSS = seconds => `${Math.floor(seconds / 3600)}:${Math.floor((seconds % 3600) / 60)}:${Math.floor((seconds % 3600) % 60)}`

In one line, another solution that also count days :

secToDHHMMSS = seconds => `${parseInt(seconds / 86400)}d ${new Date(seconds * 1000).toISOString().substr(11, 8)}`

Solution 24 - Javascript

var sec_to_hms = function(sec){
var min, hours;
     sec = sec - (min = Math.floor(sec/60))*60;
     min = min - (hours = Math.floor(min/60))*60;
     return (hours?hours+':':'') + ((min+'').padStart(2, '0')) + ':'+ ((sec+'').padStart(2, '0'));
}
alert(sec_to_hms(2442542));

Solution 25 - Javascript

None of the answers here satisfies my requirements as I want to be able to handle

Large numbers of seconds (days), and
Negative numbers

Although those are not required by the OP, it's good practice to cover edge cases, especially when it takes little effort.

It's pretty obvious is that the OP means a NUMBER of seconds when he says seconds. Why would peg your function on String?

function secondsToTimeSpan(seconds) {
    const value = Math.abs(seconds);
    const days = Math.floor(value / 1440);
    const hours = Math.floor((value - (days * 1440)) / 3600);
    const min = Math.floor((value - (days * 1440) - (hours * 3600)) / 60);
    const sec = value - (days * 1440) - (hours * 3600) - (min * 60);
    return `${seconds < 0 ? '-':''}${days > 0 ? days + '.':''}${hours < 10 ? '0' + hours:hours}:${min < 10 ? '0' + min:min}:${sec < 10 ? '0' + sec:sec}`
}
secondsToTimeSpan(0);       // => 00:00:00
secondsToTimeSpan(1);       // => 00:00:01
secondsToTimeSpan(1440);    // => 1.00:00:00
secondsToTimeSpan(-1440);   // => -1.00:00:00
secondsToTimeSpan(-1);      // => -00:00:01

Solution 26 - Javascript

Simple function to convert seconds into in hh:mm:ss format :

function getHHMMSSFromSeconds(totalSeconds) {
    if (!totalSeconds) {
      return '00:00:00';
    }
    const hours = Math.floor(totalSeconds / 3600);
    const minutes = Math.floor(totalSeconds % 3600 / 60);
    const seconds = totalSeconds % 60;
    const hhmmss = padTo2(hours) + ':' + padTo2(minutes) + ':' + padTo2(seconds);
    return hhmmss;
}

// function to convert single digit to double digit
function padTo2(value) {
    if (!value) {
      return '00';
    }
    return value < 10 ? String(value).padStart(2, '0') : value;
}

You can also use below code:

int ss = nDur%60;
nDur   = nDur/60;
int mm = nDur%60;
int hh = nDur/60;

Solution 28 - Javascript

For anyone using AngularJS, a simple solution is to filter the value with the [date API][1], which converts milliseconds to a string based on the requested format. Example:

<div>Offer ends in {{ timeRemaining | date: 'HH:mm:ss' }}</div>

Note that this expects milliseconds, so you may want to multiply timeRemaining by 1000 if you are converting from seconds (as the original question was formulated).

Solution 29 - Javascript

I ran into the case some have mentioned where the number of seconds is more than a day. Here's an adapted version of @Harish Anchu's top-rated answer that accounts for longer periods of time:

function secondsToTime(seconds) {
  const arr = new Date(seconds * 1000).toISOString().substr(11, 8).split(':');

  const days = Math.floor(seconds / 86400);
  arr[0] = parseInt(arr[0], 10) + days * 24;

  return arr.join(':');
