Show Friendly Date in SharePoint using Javascript

Add reference to SP.dateTimeUtil.js:


<script type="text/javascript" src="/_layouts/15/SP.dateTimeUtil.js"></script>

This file contains a JavaScript function called getRelativeDateTimeString() accepting four parameters:
•Date ISO8601
•IncludeTime
•CalendarType
•AdjustToServersNowTime

Call the function:

SP.DateTimeUtil.SPRelativeDateTime.getRelativeDateTimeString(new Date(), true, SP.DateTimeUtil.SPCalendarType.none, false);


This should return a string like "A few seconds ago".
