Simple package for displaying read time.

You can install the package via composer:

composer require leepownall/read-time

$readTime = new Pownall\ReadTime\ReadTime('Hello, world!');

$readTime->get();

$readTime = new Pownall\ReadTime\ReadTime('Hello, world!');

echo $readTime;

@readtime('Hello, world!')

$readTime = new Pownall\ReadTime\ReadTime('Hello, world!', 300);

@readtime('Hello, world!', 300)

It uses Carbon under the hood, specifically forHumans on the CarbonInterval.

The output looks like

2 hours 4 minutes

Default wordsPerMinute is 200. You can override this by passing it in, or publish the config and override there.

php artisan vendor:publish --tag=readtime-config

composer test
