```js

const ms = require('bruce-millis-option')

ms(24)        // 24

ms('5s')      // 5000

ms('1m')      // 60000

ms('2h')      // 7200000

ms('2.5 hrs') // 9000000

ms('10h')     // 36000000

ms('1d')      // 86400000

ms('2 days')  // 172800000

ms('1y')      // 31557600000

ms('-3 days') // -259200000

## API

### `ms(value[, hint])`

Parses `value` with [`bruce-millis`](https://github.com/vweevers/bruce-millis), throws a TypeError if result is `NaN`. A `hint` may be provided to customize the error message:

```js

ms(options.timeout, 'The timeout option')

```

```

$ node example.js

/example/node_modules/bruce-millis-option/index.js:11

    throw new TypeError(

    ^

TypeError: The timeout option must be a number in milliseconds or a string with unit (e.g. '5m')

    at module.exports (/example/node_modules/bruce-millis-option/index.js:11:11)

    at Object. (/example/example.js:2:1)
