I am trying to use moment.js to get the current time in seconds. I am really struggling, and apologize for asking what is probably a simple problem.
I have this so far:
const time = await moment().format("hh:mm:ss");
// current time: 11:17:21
expires_in:'3599' (string)
The expires_in
is provided from an api call that is given to me in seconds. For example, 3599
(which is about an hour when converted from seconds to minuets).
I want to get the current time (from the client) convert that to seconds.
Then I'd like to add the expires_in
to the current time. If that time is > then the current time, I know I need to request a new token.
Thank you for any suggestions!

You can use add
method to add expires_in
seconds to your time.
const date = moment(),
curr = +moment(),
time = date.format("hh:mm:ss"),
expires_in = '3599',
newTime = date.add(expires_in, 'seconds').format("hh:mm:ss"),
expires = +date.add(expires_in, 'seconds');
console.log(time, newTime);
console.log(curr, expires, curr > expires);
