Quick Setup

Add dayjs-nuxt dependency to your project

# Using pnpm
pnpm add -D dayjs-nuxt

# Using yarn
yarn add --dev dayjs-nuxt

# Using npm
npm install --save-dev dayjs-nuxt

Add dayjs-nuxt to the modules section of nuxt.config.ts

export default defineNuxtConfig({
  modules: [
    'dayjs-nuxt'
  ]
})

Basic Usage

You can use the provided composables to access Day.js anywhere.

<script lang="ts" setup>
const dayjs = useDayjs()
const date = dayjs('2023-01-01')
</script>

<template>
  <div>
    <time :datetime="date.utc().toString()"> {{ date }} </time>
  </div>
  </template>

Configuration

You can specify any amount of locales, plugins, set a default locale, and set a default timezone

export default defineNuxtConfig({
  modules: ['dayjs-nuxt'],
  dayjs: {
    locales: ['en', 'fr'],
    plugins: ['relativeTime', 'utc', 'timezone'],
    defaultLocale: 'en',
    defaultTimezone: 'America/New_York',
  }
})

By default we include the relativeTime and utc plugins

Optional relativeTime customization

You can now specify a custom relativeTime configuration, lets create one Gollum would understand

export default defineNuxtConfig({
  modules: ['dayjs-nuxt'],
  dayjs: {
    ...
    relativeTime: {
      future: "in %s",
      past: "%s ago",
      s: 'a few secondses',
      m: "a minute",
      mm: "%d minuteses",
      h: "an hour",
      hh: "%d hourses",
      d: "a day",
      dd: "%d dayses",
      M: "a month",
      MM: "%d monthseses",
      y: "a year",
      yy: "%d yearseses"
    }
    ...
  }
})
