How to display remaining time in realtime with wavesurfer.js

Tags:

javascript

I'm trying to display the remaining time of a track being played in realtime, but can't figure it out since my javascript skills are not very advanced.

Wavesurfer.js provides a function called getCurrentTime(), but I don't know how to implement it, so the time is displayed next to the play button.

Thanks for the Help!

Here is how you can do it:

I added some elements to hold the total, current and remaining time for demonstration:

<div>Total time: <span id="time-total">0.00</span> seconds</div>
<div>Current time: <span id="time-current">0.00</span> seconds</div>
<div>Ramaining time: <span id="time-remaining">0.00</span> seconds</div>

wavesurfer has an audioprocess event, which calls a function while its playing the file. I use that to get and display the times like this:

wavesurfer.on('audioprocess', function() {
  if (wavesurfer.isPlaying()) {
    var totalTime = wavesurfer.getDuration(),
        currentTime = wavesurfer.getCurrentTime(),
        remainingTime = totalTime - currentTime;
        
    document.getElementById('time-total').innerText = totalTime.toFixed(1);
    document.getElementById('time-current').innerText = currentTime.toFixed(1);
    document.getElementById('time-remaining').innerText = remainingTime.toFixed(1);
  }
});

Here is a working example based on your code:

var wavesurfer = WaveSurfer.create({
  container: '#waveform',
  waveColor: 'white',
  progressColor: 'red',
  audioRate: 1,
  barWidth: 3,
  height: 250,
  pixelRatio:1
});
 
wavesurfer.load('https://wavesurfer-js.org/example/media/demo.wav');

wavesurfer.on('ready', function () {
  var timeline = Object.create(WaveSurfer.Timeline);

  timeline.init({
    wavesurfer: wavesurfer,
    container: '#waveform-timeline',
    primaryFontColor: '#fff',
    primaryColor: '#fff',
    secondaryColor: '#fff',
    secondaryFontColor: '#fff'
  });
});

wavesurfer.on('audioprocess', function() {
  if (wavesurfer.isPlaying()) {
    var totalTime = wavesurfer.getDuration(),
        currentTime = wavesurfer.getCurrentTime(),
        remainingTime = totalTime - currentTime;
        
    document.getElementById('time-total').innerText = Math.round(totalTime * 1000);
    document.getElementById('time-current').innerText = Math.round(currentTime * 1000);
    document.getElementById('time-remaining').innerText = Math.round(remainingTime * 1000);
  }
});
body {
  padding: 2em;
  padding-top: 4em;
  font: "Times New Roman";
  color: white;
  background-color: black;
  letter-spacing: -0.007em;
}

titel {
  line-height: 1.5em;
  padding-bottom: 13em;
}

#maincontent {
  float: left;
  width: 500px;
}
<script src="https://unpkg.com/wavesurfer.js"></script>
<script src="https://unpkg.com/wavesurfer.js/dist/plugin/wavesurfer.timeline.min.js"></script>

<section id="maincontent">
  <div id="waveform"></div>
  <div id="waveform-timeline"></div>

  <button onClick="wavesurfer.playPause()">Play</button>

  <div>Total time: <span id="time-total">0</span> milliseconds</div>
  <div>Current time: <span id="time-current">0</span> milliseconds</div>
  <div>Ramaining time: <span id="time-remaining">0</span> milliseconds</div>
</section>

UPDATE

For millisecods, just multiply the seconds by 1000 and round the result.

document.getElementById('time-total').innerText = Math.round(totalTime * 1000);

UPDATE 2

To change the timeline plugin colors, use the timeline plugin options. You can control 4 different colors like this:

timeline.init({
  wavesurfer: wavesurfer,
  container: '#waveform-timeline',
  primaryFontColor: '#fff',
  primaryColor: '#fff',
  secondaryFontColor: '#fff',
  secondaryColor: '#fff'
});
