How to convert time (hh:mm) to decimal form with momentjs

Question

what is the best way to convert Hours Minutes to Decimal Time with momentjs

let say i have 1:30 min and i want to have 1.5 after the conversion

here is what i have tried

console.log(travelTime().split(':')[0]);   return 1
console.log(travelTime().split(':')[1]);   return 30  then / 30

where travelTime() == "1:30"

It looks like what you want is moment.duration(durationAsString) to parse your duration and .asHours() to format as decimal.

moment.duration('1:30').asHours(); will return 1.5.

For more information, see Moment's documentation section on durations: http://momentjs.com/docs/#/durations/
