Countdown

Create a simple countdown timer.

Usage

To apply this component, add the uk-countdown attribute to a container element and define a date when the countdown should expire. Just add date: YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm:ssTZD option to the attribute, using the ISO 8601 format, e.g. {%isodate%} (UTC time).

Add the following classes to child elements to apply the necessary functionality and styling.

Class	Description
.uk-countdown-days	Add this class to indicate the days to be counted down.
.uk-countdown-hours	Add this class to indicate the hours to be counted down.
.uk-countdown-minutes	Add this class to indicate the minutes to be counted down.
.uk-countdown-seconds	Add this class to indicate the seconds to be counted down.
.uk-countdown-number	This class adds the neccessary style to a countdown number.

<div uk-countdown="date: {%isodate%}">
  <span class="uk-countdown-days uk-countdown-number"></span>
  <span class="uk-countdown-hours uk-countdown-number"></span>
  <span class="uk-countdown-minutes uk-countdown-number"></span>
  <span class="uk-countdown-seconds uk-countdown-number"></span>
</div>

Separator

To insert a separator between each number, use the .uk-countdown-separator class.

<div uk-countdown="date: {%isodate%}">
  <span class="uk-countdown-days uk-countdown-number"></span>
  <span class="uk-countdown-separator">:</span>
  <span class="uk-countdown-hours uk-countdown-number"></span>
  <span class="uk-countdown-separator">:</span>
  <span class="uk-countdown-minutes uk-countdown-number"></span>
  <span class="uk-countdown-separator">:</span>
  <span class="uk-countdown-seconds uk-countdown-number"></span>
</div>

Label

To add a label to each number, use the .uk-countdown-label class.

<div class="uk-countdown-label">Days</div>
<div class="uk-countdown-label">Hours</div>
<div class="uk-countdown-label">Minutes</div>
<div class="uk-countdown-label">Seconds</div>
