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 datetime
DateTime
This package extends the features of PHP DateTime and DateTimeZone classes to ease the handling of times, time zones, and time zone locations. Getting the UTC or local representation of a time, formatting the time to a predefined format, accessing common properties such as day, month, year, quarter, and more has been made especially easy. Also, all instances can be used as strings.
Installation
Usage
Let's say that now is "2013-02-03 21:03:45" in Paris:
Empty dates are also supported:
Acknowledgements
Ruby's Time class greatly inspired the implementation of the DateTime class.
Day of the week
now() and right_now()
DateTime::now() returns a new instance with the current local time and the local time zone.
Further calls return equal times, event if they're minutes apart. now actually refers to the
REQUEST_TIME or, if it is not available, to the first time the method was invoked.
On the other hand, DateTime::right_now() returns a new instance with the real current local time
and the local time zone.
The following example demonstrates the difference:
Comparing DateTime instances
DateTime Instances are compared using standard comparison operations:
To determine if an instance is between two other instances, you need two comparisons:
To determine which instance is the most recent, or the latest, use PHP's min() and max()
functions:
DateTime and JSON
Starting with v1.1.0, JsonSerializable interface and serializes into ISO-8601 strings.
Changing multiple properties
The change() method is used to change multiple properties at once.
Note: Values exceeding ranges are added to their parent values.
Using the $cascade parameter, setting the hour resets the minute and second to 0, and setting the minute resets the second to 0.
Creating a new instance with changed properties
The with() method is similar to the change() method as it is used to define multiple properties
at once, the difference is that the method creates a new instance, leaving the original instance
intact.
Localized formatting
Localized formatting is outside of this package scope, still a localizer can be provided to the DateTime class to localize its instances, but of course the result depends on the implementation.
The following example demonstrates how to localize instances using ICanBoogie/CLDR which uses Unicode's Common Locale Data Repository to format DateTime instances.
Continuous Integration
The project is continuously tested by GitHub actions.
