flutter_time_ago #
A new Flutter package to format date or milliseconds in seconds ago, minutes ago, hours ago, days ago and from now.
Usage #
Format any DateTime or milliseconds format by following steps:
import 'package:flutter_time_ago/flutter_time_ago.dart';

var _dateTime = DateTime.now().subtract(Duration(seconds: 300));
print(FlutterTimeAgo.parse(_dateTime)); // 5 minutes ago
print(FlutterTimeAgo.parse(1605985200000, lang:'pt_BR')); // há 1 mês

Formatting from fromMilliseconds #
if you have a date in milliseconds and the type is String, you need to convert it to int ex: int.parse('1605985200000'):
import 'package:flutter_time_ago/flutter_time_ago.dart';

int milliseconds = int.parse('1605985200000');
print(FlutterTimeAgo.parse(milliseconds)); // 1 month ago
