easy_install ago
How to use
==================
Import ago and create a timedelta object::
from ago import delta2dict, human
from datetime import datetime
# pretend this was stored in database
d1 = datetime(
year = 2010,
month=5,
day=4,
hour=6,
minute=54,
second=33,
microsecond=4000
)
# this is right now
d2 = datetime.now()
# subtract the two for a timedelta object
delta = d2 - d1
# create a dictionary out of the timedelta
# not needed but accessable
delta_dict = delta2dict( delta )
print delta_dict
# display a human readable timedelta
print 'Created ' + human( delta ) + ' ago.'
# optionally pass a precision
print 'Created ' + human( delta, 3 ) + ' ago.'
print 'Created ' + human( delta, 6 ) + ' ago.'
