I am a dad now for the last 1,5 years and that clearly shows in being on time with merging PRs or pushing this package further. Time is the biggest constraint here. I would be happy to pass the project on to somebody who has more time and the motivation to push the project forward. Just drop me a message. Cheers!, _(*1)

Intro

What is moment.php?

Date library for parsing, manipulating and formatting dates w/ i18n., _(*5)

Any dependencies?

PHP 5.3 or later since moment.php is based on php's DateTime Class., _(*6)

Install

Easy install via composer. Still no idea what composer is? Inform yourself here., _(*7)

composer require fightbulc/moment

Quick examples

Get a moment

$m = new \Moment\Moment(); // default is "now" UTC
echo $m->format(); // e.g. 2012-10-03T10:00:00+0000

$m = new \Moment\Moment('now', 'Europe/Berlin');
echo $m->format(); // e.g. 2012-10-03T12:00:00+0200

$m = new \Moment\Moment('2017-06-06T10:00:00', 'Europe/Berlin');
echo $m->format(); // e.g. 2012-10-03T12:00:00+0200

$m = new \Moment\Moment(1499366585);
echo $m->format(); // e.g. 2017-07-06T18:43:05+0000

Accepted date formats

Moment parses the following date formats as input:, _(*8)

const ATOM = 'Y-m-d\TH:i:sP'; // 2005-08-15T15:52:01+00:00
const COOKIE = 'l, d-M-y H:i:s T'; // Monday, 15-Aug-2005 15:52:01 UTC
const ISO8601 = 'Y-m-d\TH:i:sO'; // 2005-08-15T15:52:01+0000
const RFC822 = 'D, d M y H:i:s O'; // Mon, 15 Aug 05 15:52:01 +0000
const RFC850 = 'l, d-M-y H:i:s T'; // Monday, 15-Aug-05 15:52:01 UTC
const RFC1036 = 'D, d M y H:i:s O'; // Mon, 15 Aug 05 15:52:01 +0000
const RFC1123 = 'D, d M Y H:i:s O'; // Mon, 15 Aug 2005 15:52:01 +0000
const RFC2822 = 'D, d M Y H:i:s O'; // Mon, 15 Aug 2005 15:52:01 +0000
const RSS = 'D, d M Y H:i:s O'; // Mon, 15 Aug 2005 15:52:01 +0000
const W3C = 'Y-m-d\TH:i:sP'; // 2005-08-15T15:52:01+00:00

// Moment also tries to parse dates without timezone or without seconds

const NO_TZ_MYSQL = 'Y-m-d H:i:s'; // 2005-08-15 15:52:01
const NO_TZ_NO_SECS = 'Y-m-d H:i'; // 2005-08-15 15:52
const NO_TIME = 'Y-m-d'; // 2005-08-15

// time fractions ".000" will be automatically removed
$timeWithFraction = '2016-05-04T10:00:00.000';

Switch locale

Have a look at the Locales folder to see all supported languages. Default locale is en_GB., _(*9)

$m = new \Moment\Moment();
echo $m->format('[Weekday:] l'); // e.g. Weekday: Wednesday

// set german locale
\Moment\Moment::setLocale('de_DE');

$m = new \Moment\Moment();
echo $m->format('[Wochentag:] l'); // e.g. Wochentag: Mittwoch

Supported languages so far:, _(*10)

ar_TN Arabic (Tunisia) ca_ES Catalan cs_CZ Czech da_DK Danish de_DE German (Germany) en_CA English (Canada) en_GB English (British) en_US English (American) eo_EO Esperanto es_ES Spanish (Europe) fa_IR Farsi fi_FI Finnish fr_CA French (Canada) fr_FR French (Europe) hu_HU Hungarian id_ID Indonesian it_IT Italian ja_JP Japanese kz_KZ Kazakh lv_LV Latvian (Latviešu) nl_NL Dutch oc_LNC Lengadocian pl_PL Polish pt_BR Portuguese (Brazil) pt_PT Portuguese (Portugal) ru_RU Russian (Basic version) sv_SE Swedish th_TH Thai tr_TR Turkish uk_UA Ukrainian vi_VN Vietnamese zh_CN Chinese zh_TW Chinese (traditional), _(*11)

Switch timezones

$m = new \Moment\Moment('2012-04-25T03:00:00', 'CET');
echo $m->setTimezone('UTC')->format(); // 2012-04-25T01:00:00+0000

Change default timezone

\Moment\Moment::setDefaultTimezone('CET');

$m = new \Moment\Moment('2016-09-13T14:32:06');
echo $m->format(); // 2016-09-13T14:32:06+0100

Custom format

I. PHP only (Standard)

$m = new \Moment\Moment('2012-04-25T03:00:00', 'CET');
echo $m->format('l, dS F Y / H:i (e)'); // Wednesday, 25th April 2012 / 03:00 (Europe/Berlin)

Formats are based on PHP's Date function and DateTime class., _(*12)

II. Non-php formats

You can now inject different format handling by passing along a class which implements the FormatsInterface. You can find an example within the test folder for implementing all formats from moment.js. Thanks to Ashish for taking the time to match moment.js formats to those of PHP. Have a look at the test script to see the example in action., _(*13)

Everybody can write format classes in the same manner. Its easy and scalable., _(*14)

// get  desired formats class
// create a moment
$m = new \Moment\Moment('2012-04-25T03:00:00', 'CET');

// format with moment.js definitions
echo $m->format('LLLL', new \Moment\CustomFormats\MomentJs()); // Wednesday, April 25th 2012 3:00 AM

Custom formats can also come as part of every Locale. If it does not exist for your locale yet go ahead and add it. See an example for the French locale., _(*15)

III. Easy text escaping

Just wrap all your text within [] and all characters will be automatically escaped for you., _(*16)

$m = new \Moment\Moment('2012-04-25T03:00:00', 'CET');
echo $m->format('[We are in the month of:] F'); // We are in the month of: April

IV. Fixed ordinal representations

PHP's interal ordinal calculation seems to be buggy. I added a quick fix to handle this issue., _(*17)

The following example prints the week of the year of the given date. It should print 22nd:, _(*18)

// internal function
date('WS', mktime(12, 22, 0, 5, 27, 2014)); // 22th

// moment.php
$m = new \Moment\Moment('2014-05-27T12:22:00', 'CET');
$m->format('WS'); // 22nd

Create custom moments and manipulate it

I. Past/Future moments

$m = new \Moment\Moment('2012-05-15T12:30:00', 'CET');
echo $m->addHours(2)->format(); // 2012-05-15T14:30:00+0200

$m = new \Moment\Moment('2012-05-15T12:30:00', 'CET');
echo $m->subtractDays(7)->subtractMinutes(15)->format(); // 2012-05-08T12:15:00+0200

$m = new \Moment\Moment('@1401443979', 'CET'); // unix time
echo $m->subtractDays(7)->subtractMinutes(15)->format(); // 2014-05-23T09:44:39+0000

II. Clone a given moment

Sometimes its useful to take a given moment and work with it without changing the origin. For that use cloning()., _(*19)

$m = new \Moment\Moment('2012-05-15T12:30:00', 'CET');
$c = $m->cloning()->addDays(1);

echo $m->getDay(); // 15
echo $c->getDay(); // 16

Alternately, you can enable immutable mode on the origin., _(*20)

$m = new \Moment\Moment('2012-05-15T12:30:00', 'CET', true);
$c = $m->addDays(1);

echo $m->getDay(); // 15
echo $c->getDay(); // 16

// You can also change the immutable mode after creation:
$m->setImmutableMode(false)->subtractDays(1);

echo $m->getDay(); // 14

Immutable mode makes all modification methods call cloning() implicitly before applying their modifications., _(*21)

III. Methods for manipulating the date/time

Add	Subtract
addSeconds($s)	subtractSeconds($s)
addMinutes($i)	subtractMinutes($i)
addHours($h)	subtractHours($h)
addDays($d)	subtractDays($d)
addWeeks($w)	subtractWeeks($w)
addMonths($m)	subtractMonths($m)
addYears($y)	subtractYears($y)

IV. Setter/Getter

Setter	Getter
setSecond($s)	getSecond()
setMinute($m)	getMinute()
setHour($h)	getHour()
setDay($d)	getDay()
setMonth($m)	getMonth()
setYear($y)	getYear()
--	getQuarter()

Difference between dates

$m = new \Moment\Moment('2013-02-01T07:00:00');
$momentFromVo = $m->fromNow();

// or from a specific moment
$m = new \Moment\Moment('2013-02-01T07:00:00');
$momentFromVo = $m->from('2011-09-25T10:00:00');

// result comes as a value object class
echo $momentFromVo->getDirection()  // "future"
echo $momentFromVo->getSeconds()    // -42411600
echo $momentFromVo->getMinutes()    // -706860
echo $momentFromVo->getHours()      // -11781
echo $momentFromVo->getDays()       // -490.88
echo $momentFromVo->getWeeks()      // -70.13
echo $momentFromVo->getMonths()     // -17.53
echo $momentFromVo->getYears()      // -1.42
echo $momentFromVo->getRelative()   // in a year

Get date periods (week, month, quarter)

Sometimes its helpful to get the period boundaries of a given date. For instance in case that today is Wednesday and I need the starting-/end dates from today's week. Allowed periods are week, month and quarter., _(*22)

$m = new \Moment\Moment('2013-10-23T10:00:00');
$momentPeriodVo = $m->getPeriod('week');

// results comes as well as a value object class
echo $momentPeriodVo
    ->getStartDate()
    ->format('Y-m-d'); // 2013-10-21

echo $momentPeriodVo
    ->getEndDate()
    ->format('Y-m-d'); // 2013-10-27

echo $momentPeriodVo
    ->getRefDate()
    ->format('Y-m-d'); // 2013-10-23

echo $momentPeriodVo->getInterval(); // 43 = week of year

Same procedure for monthly and quarterly periods:, _(*23)

$momentPeriodVo = $m->getPeriod('month');
$momentPeriodVo = $m->getPeriod('quarter');

Calendar Times

Calendar time displays time relative to now, but slightly differently than Moment::fromNow(). Moment::calendar() will format a date with different strings depending on how close to today the date is., _(*24)

(new \Moment\Moment('2014-03-30T16:58:00', 'CET'))->subtractDays(6)->calendar(); // last week
(new \Moment\Moment('2014-03-30T16:58:00', 'CET'))->subtractDays(1)->calendar(); // yesterday
(new \Moment\Moment('2014-03-30T16:58:00', 'CET'))->calendar(); // today
(new \Moment\Moment('2014-03-30T16:58:00', 'CET'))->addDays(1)->calendar(); // tomorrow
(new \Moment\Moment('2014-03-30T16:58:00', 'CET'))->addDays(3)->calendar(); // next week
(new \Moment\Moment('2014-03-30T16:58:00', 'CET'))->addDays(10)->calendar(); // everything else

Time	Display
Last week	Last Monday at 15:54
The day before	Yesterday at 15:54
The same day	Today at 15:54
The next day	Tomorrow at 15:54
The next week	Wednesday at 15:54
Everything else	04/09/2014

Note: Use $moment->calendar(false) to leave out the time at 00:00., _(*25)

startOf / endOf

Same process as for moment.js: mutates the original moment by setting it to the start/end of a unit of time., _(*26)

$m = new \Moment\Moment('20140515T10:15:23', 'CET');

$m->startOf('year');    // set to January 1st, 00:00 this year
$m->startOf('quarter'); // set to the beginning of the current quarter, 1st day of months, 00:00
$m->startOf('month');   // set to the first of this month, 00:00
$m->startOf('week');    // set to the first day of this week, 00:00
$m->startOf('day');     // set to 00:00 today
$m->startOf('hour');    // set to now, but with 0 mins, 0 secs
$m->startOf('minute');  // set to now, but with 0 seconds

$m->endOf('year');    // set to December 31st, 23:59 this year
$m->endOf('quarter'); // set to the end of the current quarter, last day of month, 23:59
$m->endOf('month');   // set to the last of this month, 23:59
$m->endOf('week');    // set to the last day of this week, 23:59
$m->endOf('day');     // set to 23:59 today
$m->endOf('hour');    // set to now, but with 59 mins, 59 secs
$m->endOf('minute');  // set to now, but with 59 seconds

Note: I ignored the period of second since we are not dealing with milliseconds., _(*27)

Get dates for given weekdays for upcoming weeks

For one of my customers I needed to get moments by selected weekdays. The task was: give me the dates for Tuesdays and Thursdays for the next three weeks. So I added a small handler which does exactly this. As result you will receive an array filled with Moment Objects., _(*28)

// 1 - 7 = Mon - Sun
$weekdayNumbers = [
    2, // tuesday
    4, // thursday
];

$m = new \Moment\Moment();
$dates = $m->getMomentsByWeekdays($weekdayNumbers, 3);

// $dates = [Moment, Moment, Moment ...]

You can now run through the result and put it formatted into a drop-down field or for whatever you might need it., _(*29)
