This package provides a trait you can add to an Eloquent model that will automatically create human-readable timestamp diffs using Carbon.

To install the package run:

composer require chrisdicarlo/eloquent-human-timestamps

Add the ChrisDiCarlo\EloquentHumanTimestamps\HumanTimestamps trait to a model that has timestamp columns, e.g.:

use ChrisDiCarlo\EloquentHumanTimestamps\HumanTimestamps;

class Foobar
{

    use HumanTimestamps;

   ...

}

To get the human-readable attribute, simply retrieve the timestamp normally but append _for_humans to the name, e.g. created_at_for_humans, updated_at_for_humans.
