Example:

SimpleDuration
const durationOne = new SimpleDuration(3600);
const durationTwo = new SimpleDuration('00:30:00');

add(duration)


Use this method to add to the current value the value of another SimpleDuration object. The value of the current object changes. The method returns the sum as a new SimpleDuration object.


Parameter(s):

NameTypeMandatoryDefault Value
durationSimpleDurationYN


Return:

TypeDescription
SimpleDurationThe sum of two SimpleDuration objects.


Example:

add
const durationOne = new SimpleDuration(3600);
const durationTwo = new SimpleDuration('00:30:00');
const totalDuration = durationOne.add(durationTwo);
ss.info(totalDuration.getDurationValue());
// Info: 01:30:00
