This package is abandoned and will no longer be maintained. I suggest using Carbon for much more advanced date functionality and the helper functions of Illuminate/Support to format text.
Easier handling and formating of strings and dates. Made to work with Laravel 4 but runs also standalone.
You can install the Helper classes quick and easy with Composer.
Require the package via Composer in your composer.json
.
"intervention/helper": "dev-master"
Run Composer to update the new requirement.
$ composer update
The Helper classes are built to work with the Laravel 4 Framework. The integration is done in seconds.
Open your Laravel config file config/app.php
and add the following lines.
In the $providers
array add the service providers for this package.
'providers' => array(
...
'Intervention\Helper\DateServiceProvider',
'Intervention\Helper\StringServiceProvider'
),
Add the facade of this package to the $aliases
array.
'aliases' => array(
...
'Date' => 'Intervention\Helper\Facades\Date',
'String' => 'Intervention\Helper\Facades\String'
),
// returns '24. Oktober 2003, 10:45' in german locale
return Date::format('datetime', '2003-10-24 10:45:13');
// returns 'October 24, 2003, 10:45 AM' in english locale
return Date::format('datetime', '2003-10-24 10:45:13');
// returns '10 Jahre' in german locale
return Date::age('2003-10-24 10:00', '2013-10-24 10:45:13');
// methods also takes unix timestamps of DateTime objects, second parameter is optional
return Date::age(1292177455);
// returns '4 cars'
return String::pluralize(4, 'car', 'cars');
// returns '1.200,00 EUR' in german locale
return String::formatMoney(1200, 'EUR');
// echoes different values repeated one after another
for ($i=0; $i < 10; $i++) {
echo String::alternator('one', 'two', 'three');
}
// you may also use arrays as input for alternator
for ($i=0; $i < 10; $i++) {
echo String::alternator(array('one', 'two', 'three'));
}
