KDEDateLabel is an UILabel subclass that saves you from refreshing it when using 'time ago' format.

You have multiple choices here:

• Copy KDEDateLabel.swift in your project.
• Adding it in your Podfile pod 'KDEDateLabel'

let label = KDEDateLabel(frame: CGRect(x: 0, y: 0, width: 100, height: 20))
label.date = NSDate()
label.dateFormatTextBlock = { date in
    return "\(Int(fabs(date.timeIntervalSinceNow)))s ago"
}

KDEDateLabel is also compatible with Storyboard/XIB.
