FAQ
Example:
In general, it is recommended to use always a project to download your libraries. In an application normally there is more than one library needed.
- Some hosting areas are not accessible by a terminal or SSH. Then it is not possible to use Composer.
- To use Composer is sometimes complicated. Especially for beginners.
- Composer needs much resources. Sometimes they are not available on a simple webspace.
- If you are using private repositories you don't need to share your credentials. You can set up everything on our site and then you provide a simple download link to your team member.
- Simplify your Composer build process. Use our own command line tool to download the vendor folder as binary. This makes your build process faster and you don't need to expose your credentials for private repositories.
Informations about the package local-date-time
LocalDateTime
LocalDateTime is a lightweight wrapper around PHP's own DateTime object, allowing for smooth work with local date, time and date time without worrying about time zones. Each temporal object allows the same ways of comparision, modification and formatting as the underlying DateTime object.
Additionally this library comes with a wrapper around IntlDateFormatter, specifically aimed to format local temporals. For ease of integration, Doctrine types for these temporals are provided as well.
Installation
Install via composer:
Getting started
There are three temporal objects supplied:
DASPRiD\LocalDateTime\LocalDateDASPRiD\LocalDateTime\LocalTimeDASPRiD\LocalDateTime\LocalDateTime
All of these are constructed in a similar fashion through named constructors. For simplicity, the following examples
illustrate working with the LocalDate object.
Creation
A LocalDate object can be constructed in multiple ways:
When creating a LocalDate from a DateTime object, it will be interpreted in the time zone the DateTime object is
set to. If you wish to interpret it in a different time zone, you must change it on the DateTime object beforehand.
Modification
As said before, the LocalDate supports the same modification methods as a regular DateTime object:
::modify(string $modify) : self::add(DateInterval $interval) : self::sub(DateInterval $interval) : self
When a modification contains units not meant for temporal (e. g. hours for a LocalDate), it will be applied to the
underlying DateTime object and afterwards removed. For instance:
Comparision
Comparision works exactly the same as with DateTime objects, except that since PHP code cannot override comparators,
the following methods were made available:
::compare(self $other) : int::isBefore(self $other) : bool::isAfter(self $other) : bool::isEqual(self $other) : bool::diff(self $other, bool $absolute = false) : DateInterval
Formatting
Formatting also works the same as you are used to. Depending on the temporal object, specific formatting characters are
not supported and will be returned as is. For instance, no local temporal supports time zone information, and a
LocalDate cannot return any time information.
To format a temporal in a specific locale other than English, you will need to use the IntlLocalDateFormatter, which
requires ext-intl to be installed. To format the above date in a German locale, you'd do the following:
Doctrine integration
To use the local temporals with Doctrine, the following Doctrine types are supplied:
DASPRiD\LocalDateTime\Doctrine\LocalDateType(name:localdate)DASPRiD\LocalDateTime\Doctrine\LocalTimeType(name:localtime)DASPRiD\LocalDateTime\Doctrine\LocalDateTimeType(name:localdatetime)
