whitecube / laravel-timezones example snippets

// Model:
protected $casts = [
    'occurred_at' => TimezonedDatetime::class,
];

// Set a custom timezone
Timezone::set('Europe/Brussels');

// Display dates stored as UTC in the app's timezone:
// (database value: 2022-12-13 09:00:00)
echo $model->occurred_at->format('d.m.Y H:i'); // Output: 13.12.2022 10:00

// Store dates using automatic UTC conversion:
$model->occurred_at = '2022-12-13 20:00:00';
$model->save(); // Database value: 2022-12-13 19:00:00
