Add function to measure the duration since a date or timestamp

[ricardoleal]

Describe the feature request

It would be nice to be able to check if a data is older than 48h

Example:

  conditions:
    - "[BODY].run.date <= 48h"

This is done already in certificates, but i did not find any documentation to use with dates.

Why do you personally want this feature to be implemented?

We have some use cases where it would be nice to monitor.

How long have you been using this project?

6m

Hmm, I guess the strategy here would be to add a function like timeago that would internally convert the value into a value that represents how long ago this occurred, something like:

  conditions:
    - "timeago([BODY].run.date) <= 48h"

This is a good idea.

Maybe age instead of timeago? 🤔

I'm not a developer, but the goal would be a way to test if that date in the last hour value. example last 24h.
