Time to now using Kendo UI

[Anatoli]

I want to be able to convert Date into a "Time from now" format. I can accomplish the same using Moment.js library, but if I achieve the same using Kendo UI, I see no point in using Moment.js

What's the simplest way to get this done using Kendo. I don't want to get into manually parsing date object, and then diffing the date from now etc..

Hi Purna,

In Kendo UI there is no method that will calculate the difference between two dates and you will have to use either a custom library or the following simple JavaScript that will calculate the days between two dates:

var today = new Date());
var selected = $("#datePicker").data("kendoDatePicker").value();

var diff = Math.round((selected - today)/1000/60/60/24); //Difference in days
