Find time name between two dates - mysql

Question

Is there any function that will give me the name of passed time with two dates in mysql? for example, after i've wrote a post then the page redirects me to the post page it must say " posted 4 seconds before", and afte five minutes later it will say posted 5 minutes before". If the time bigger than 60 minutes it will say xx hours before ...
15 days later it must say 2 weeks ago.
Something like wordpress meta info.
Same as time on my nick name at to right bottom of this post

I suggest you to write this on scripting side. If you are using PHP you can use the following code block to convert unixtime to relative phrase.
function relative_date($date)
{
$diff = time() - $date;
if ($diff < 0) {
return "just now";
} else {
$app = "ago";
}
$t_diff = $diff;
$days = floor($diff / 3600 / 24);
$diff = $diff - ( $days * 3600 * 24 );
$hours = floor($diff / 3600);
$diff = $diff - ( $hours * 3600 );
$minutes = floor($diff / 60);
$diff = $diff - ( $minutes * 60 );
$seconds = $diff;
if ($t_diff > 60 * 60 * 24) {
$str = ( $days . ' days' );
} else if ($t_diff > 60) {
$str = ( $hours ? "{$hours} hours" : "" ) . ( $minutes ? " $minutes minutes" : "" );
} else {
$str = ( $seconds ) . " seconds";
}
$str = $str . " $app";
return $str;
}

This is what I want
function formatDateDiff($start, $end=null) {
if(!($start instanceof DateTime)) {
$start = new DateTime($start);
}
if($end === null) {
$end = new DateTime();
}
if(!($end instanceof DateTime)) {
$end = new DateTime($start);
}
$interval = $end->diff($start);
$doPlural = function($nb,$str){
if ($nb > 1) {
switch ($str) {
case 'Yıl':
case 'Ay':
case 'Gün':
return $str.'e';
case 'Saat':
case 'Dakika':
case 'Saniye':
return $str.'n';
}
} else
return $str;
}; // adds plurals
$format = array();
if($interval->y !== 0) {
$format[] = "%y ".$doPlural($interval->y, "Yıl");
}
if($interval->m !== 0) {
$format[] = "%m ".$doPlural($interval->m, "Ay");
}
if($interval->d !== 0) {
$format[] = "%d ".$doPlural($interval->d, "Gün");
}
if($interval->h !== 0) {
$format[] = "%h ".$doPlural($interval->h, "Saat");
}
if($interval->i !== 0) {
$format[] = "%i ".$doPlural($interval->i, "Dakika");
}
if($interval->s !== 0) {
$format[] = "%s ".$doPlural($interval->s, "Saniye");
}
if(count($format)==0 || (count($format)==1 && $interval->s !== 0)) {
return "Az Önce";
}
// We use the two biggest parts
if(count($format) > 1) {
$format = array_shift($format).", ".array_shift($format);
} else {
$format = array_pop($format);
}
// Prepend 'since ' or whatever you like
return $interval->format($format);
}
