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 date-converter
Description
The library provides extended functionality for working with dates.
- converting date rows "The 13th of Mar. 1999", "Mar. 2022" to objects.
- converting date rows in different languages "8 März 2023"
- converting date intervals "13th of Mar. 1999 - 8 März 2023"
- converting date sequences "The 12th of April 2022; 8 März 2023"
- search dates in a text in your language...
The library solves all these problems.
Versions
- There is code for php8.1 in the master branch (tags 1.0.*)
- There is code for php8.0 in the master-php8.0 branch (tags 1.1.*)
Configuration
Create ArrayPatternStorage.\
The object takes config array of a strictly defined format:
- The
patternsfield should contain regular expressions for dates. - The
monthsfield should contain regular expressions for months. There should be exactly 12 of them.
The library automatically substitutes regular expressions:
$day = [0-9]{1,2}, $year = [0-9]{4}, $month = January|Jan\.|February|....
Convertation
All possible examples of using the library are in the examples folder.\ For example, in ./examples/simple_date/test.php the simple convertation is described:
The convertToDate method will return a DateModel object since the string "12th February 2022" matches the first pattern in
configuration file.\
If you pass a string that does not match any of the patterns, then an Exception will be thrown.\
The order of the patterns in the configuration is important because the convertToDate method returns a DateModel based on the first matching pattern!
Advanced options
Interval convertation: interval-convertation\ Sequence convertation: secuence-convertation\ Multiple pattern storages: multiple-storages
Search
The library provides two search strategies:
- search with replacement
- search with repetitions
Examples of using search are described in the folder examples/search.
Next, let's explain the differences.\
Let the input row be given:\
It was sunny outside on the 12th of April 2022, 13 April 2022 and the 17th of April 2021
Search with replacement
- find all dates for the input corresponding to the first pattern, replace with $pattern_1, save the transformed row:\
It was sunny outside on $pattern_1, 13 April 2022 and $pattern_1.\ The dates for pattern 1 are stored in the TextAllPatternMatches model. - In the transformed row (with $pattern_1) we find the dates for the pattern 2, replace it with $pattern_2, save the transformed row:\
It was sunny outside on $pattern_1, $pattern_2 and $pattern_1.\ The dates for pattern 2 are stored in the TextAllPatternMatches model. - etc...
For this strategy, the order of the patterns in the configuration is important!
Search with repetitions
- find all dates for the input corresponding to the first pattern, replace with $pattern_1, save the transformed row:\
It was sunny outside on $pattern_1, 13 April 2022 and $pattern_1.\ The dates for pattern 1 are stored in the TextPattern model. - again we take the input row and find the dates corresponding to pattern 2, replace it with $pattern_2, save string:\
It was sunny outside on the 12th of April 2022, $pattern_2 and the 17th of April 2021,\ The dates for pattern 2 are stored in the TextPattern model. - etc...
Thus the TextPatternSequence is fill with the TextPattern models. The order is not important for this strategy.
Advanced options
Interval search: interval-search
