Hi Friends 👋,
Welcome To Infinitbility! ❤️
To add seconds in the date using moment js, just use the moment().add()
method by passing two parameters, first is the number of seconds you want to add, and the second parameter is 'seconds'
it’s means want to add seconds.
Just import moment in your file and invoke moment().add(30, 'seconds');
it will show the current date time plus 30 seconds.
1moment().add(20, 'seconds');
Today, I’m going to show How do I add seconds in moment js, here I will use the momentjs common method add()
to add seconds in the date object.

Example in reactjs
In the following example, we are going to do
- import the moment package
- create a function and console the current time.
- add seconds in the current time and re-console it.
let’s write the code.
1import moment from "moment";23// create a function and console moment4function consoleTheMoment() {5 let currentDateTime = moment();6 console.log("currentDateTime", currentDateTime)7 // add seconds in current time and re console it.8 currentDateTime = moment(currentDateTime).add(30, 'seconds')9 console.log("currentDateTime plus 30s", currentDateTime)10}1112function App() {13 consoleTheMoment()14 return (15 <div>16 {/* moment in react render */}17 {moment().format("hh:mm:ss")}18 </div>19 );20}2122export default App;
In the above program, we call moment().add()
in simple custom function and and add 30 seconds
in it.
let’s check the output.

I hope it’s help you, All the best 👍.
