Twig Date Extension
===================

[](#twig-date-extension)

The *Date* extension provides the `time_diff` filter.

`time_diff`
-----------

[](#time_diff)

Use the `time_diff` filter to render the difference between a date and now.

```
{{ post.published_at|time_diff }}
```

The example above will output a string like `4 seconds ago` or `in 1 month`, depending on the filtered date.

Arguments
---------

[](#arguments)

- `date`: The date for calculate the difference from now. Can be a string or a DateTime instance.
- `now`: The date that should be used as now. Can be a string or a DateTime instance. Do not set this argument to use current date.

Translation
-----------

[](#translation)

To get a translatable output, give a `Symfony\Contracts\Translation\TranslatorInterface`as constructor argument. The returned string is formatted as `diff.ago.XXX`or `diff.in.XXX` where `XXX` can be any valid unit: second, minute, hour, day, month, year.
