This repository helps counts down for a specified duration or to a specified day

You should specify either a duration, or an end date.

Additionally, if you use a duration, you can specify a start date.

$ git clone https://github.com/KevinStrong/countdown
$ cd countdown

Set up a 10 day countdown, then access it using Get().

This decrements every 24 hours starting at the time you created the countdown.

cd := countdown.New(countdown.Days(10))
daysRemaining := cd.Get() 

You can control when countdown decrements by setting the start time.

startTime := time.Now()
cd := countdown.New(countdown.Start(startTime), countdown.Days(10))

You can have the countdown display the number of hours, minutes, seconds or milliseconds remaining instead of days remaing.

cd := countdown.New(countdown.Days(10), countdown.Unit(time.Hour))

Save a countdown to a file using Save(). You can resume it later via a construtor option.

err := cd.Save()
// In a different program
resumedCountdown := countdown.New(countdown.FromFile())
