time.ParseDuration DURATION

time.ParseDuration parses a duration string into a time.Duration structure so you can access its fields. A duration string is a possibly signed sequence of decimal numbers, each with optional fraction and a unit suffix, such as 300ms, -1.5h or 2h45m. Valid time units are ns, us (or µs), ms, s, m, h.

You can perform time operations on the returned time.Duration value:

{{ printf "There are %.0f seconds in one day." (time.ParseDuration "24h").Seconds }}
<!-- Output: There are 86400 seconds in one day. -->
