datefmt_format_object
(PHP 5 >= 5.5.0, PHP 7, PECL intl >= 3.0.0)
IntlDateFormatter::formatObject -- datefmt_format_object — Formats an object
Description
Object oriented style
$object
[, mixed $format = NULL
[, string $locale = NULL
]] ) : stringProcedural style
$object
[, mixed $format = NULL
[, string $locale = NULL
]] ) : stringThis function allows formatting an IntlCalendar or DateTime object without first explicitly creating a IntlDateFormatter object.
The temporary IntlDateFormatter that will be created will take the timezone from the passed in object. The timezone database bundled with PHP will not be used – ICU's will be used instead. The timezone identifier used in DateTime objects must therefore also exist in ICU's database.
Parameters
-
object -
An object of type IntlCalendar or DateTime. The timezone information in the object will be used.
-
format -
How to format the date/time. This can either be an array with two elements (first the date style, then the time style, these being one of the constants
IntlDateFormatter::NONE,IntlDateFormatter::SHORT,IntlDateFormatter::MEDIUM,IntlDateFormatter::LONG,IntlDateFormatter::FULL), an integer with the value of one of these constants (in which case it will be used both for the time and the date) or a string with the format described in » the ICU documentation. IfNULL, the default style will be used. -
locale -
The locale to use, or
NULLto use the default one.
Examples
Example #1 IntlDateFormatter::formatObject() examples
<?php
/* default timezone is irrelevant; timezone taken from the object */
ini_set('date.timezone', 'UTC');
/* default locale is taken from this ini setting */
ini_set('intl.default_locale', 'fr_FR');
$cal = IntlCalendar::fromDateTime("2013-06-06 17:05:06 Europe/Dublin");
echo "default:\n\t",
IntlDateFormatter::formatObject($cal),
"\n";
echo "long \$format (full):\n\t",
IntlDateFormatter::formatObject($cal, IntlDateFormatter::FULL),
"\n";
echo "array \$format (none, full):\n\t",
IntlDateFormatter::formatObject($cal, array(
IntlDateFormatter::NONE,
IntlDateFormatter::FULL)),
"\n";
echo "string \$format (d 'of' MMMM y):\n\t",
IntlDateFormatter::formatObject($cal, "d 'of' MMMM y", 'en_US'),
"\n";
echo "with DateTime:\n\t",
IntlDateFormatter::formatObject(
new DateTime("2013-09-09 09:09:09 Europe/Madrid"),
IntlDateFormatter::FULL,
'es_ES'),
"\n";
The above example will output:
default:
6 juin 2013 17:05:06
long $format (full):
jeudi 6 juin 2013 17:05:06 heure d’été irlandaise
array $format (none, full):
17:05:06 heure d’été irlandaise
string $format (d 'of' MMMM y):
6 of June 2013
with DateTime:
lunes, 9 de septiembre de 2013 09:09:09 Hora de verano de Europa central
