## Requirements
* PHP 8.3
## Installation 🌱
```composer req fresh/datetime```
## Features 🎁
### Popular time constants
Number of seconds in a minute, number of minutes in an hour, etc.
```php
use Fresh\DateTime\TimeConstants;
echo TimeConstants::NUMBER_OF_SECONDS_IN_AN_HOUR; // etc.
```
### Methods for creating current `\DateTime` and `\DateTimeImmutable` objects (convenient for testing)
If you use separate class for creating datetime objects, you can mock these methods in your code and have the expected `\DateTime` object what you need.
```php
use Fresh\DateTime\DateTimeHelper;
$dateTimeHelper = new DateTimeHelper();
$now1 = $dateTimeHelper->getCurrentDatetime();
$now2 = $dateTimeHelper->getCurrentDatetime(new \DateTimeZone('Europe/Kyiv')); // Or with custom timezone
$now3 = $dateTimeHelper->getCurrentDatetimeUtc(); // Always in UTC
$now4 = $dateTimeHelper->getCurrentDatetimeImmutable();
$now5 = $dateTimeHelper->getCurrentDatetimeImmutable(new \DateTimeZone('Europe/Kyiv')); // Or with custom timezone
$now6 = $dateTimeHelper->getCurrentDatetimeImmutableUtc(); // Always in UTC
```
Compatible with [PSR-20: Clock](https://www.php-fig.org/psr/psr-20/).
```php
use Fresh\DateTime\DateTimeHelper;
$dateTimeHelper = new DateTimeHelper();
$now = $dateTimeHelper->now(); // \DateTimeImmutable in UTC
```
### Method for getting current timestamp
```php
use Fresh\DateTime\DateTimeHelper;
$dateTimeHelper = new DateTimeHelper();
$timestamp = $dateTimeHelper->getCurrentTimestamp();
```
### Method for creating `\DateTime` or `\DateTimeImmutable` from format
```php
use Fresh\DateTime\DateTimeHelper;
$dateTimeHelper = new DateTimeHelper();
// By default with format Y-m-d H:i:s and UTC timezone
$dateTime = $dateTimeHelper->createDateTimeFromFormat('2000-01-01 00:00:00');
$dateTimeImmutable = $dateTimeHelper->createDateTimeImmutableFromFormat('2000-01-01 00:00:00');
// With custom format
$dateTime = $dateTimeHelper->createDateTimeFromFormat('01.01.2000 00:00:00', 'd.m.Y H:i:s');
// With custom timezone
$dateTime = $dateTimeHelper->createDateTimeFromFormat('01.01.2000 00:00:00', 'd.m.Y H:i:s', new \DateTimeZone('Europe/Kyiv'));
```
### Method for creating `\DateTimeZone` object
If you create a `\DateTimeZone` object directly in your code, you will not be able to mock it in tests.
So there is a specific method for creating timezone object.
```php
use Fresh\DateTime\DateTimeHelper;
$dateTimeHelper = new DateTimeHelper();
$dateTimeZone1 = $dateTimeHelper->createDateTimeZone(); // UTC by default
$dateTimeZone2 = $dateTimeHelper->createDateTimeZone('Europe/Kyiv'); // Or with custom timezone
$dateTimeZone3 = $dateTimeHelper->createDateTimeZoneUtc(); // Another method to get UTC timezone
```
### Immutable `DateRange` ValueObject
You often needed to manipulate with since/till dates, so-called date ranges.
By its nature, date range is a `ValueObject`, it can be reused many times for different purposes.
This library provides a `DateRange` immutable class, which is not able to be changed after its creation.
`DateRange` operates only with dates and ignore time.
```php
use Fresh\DateTime\DateRange;
$dateRange1 = new DateRange(new \DateTime('yesterday'), new \DateTime('tomorrow'));
$dateRange2 = new DateRange(new \DateTime('yesterday'), new \DateTime('tomorrow', new \DateTimeZone('Europe/Kyiv')));
// There is also the `isEqual` method to compare two DateRange objects.
$dateRange1->isEqual($dateRange2); // Returns FALSE, because date ranges have different timezones
```
### Immutable `DateTimeRange` ValueObject
This library provides also immutable class `DateTimeRange`, instead of `DateRange` it checks date and time.
```php
use Fresh\DateTime\DateTimeRange;
$dateTimeRange1 = new DateTimeRange(new \DateTime('2000-01-01 19:00:00'), new \DateTime('2000-01-01 21:00:00'));
$dateTimeRange2 = new DateTimeRange(new \DateTime('2000-01-01 19:00:00'), new \DateTime('2000-01-01 21:00:00', new \DateTimeZone('Europe/Kyiv')));
$dateTimeRange3 = new DateTimeRange(new \DateTime('2000-01-01 20:00:00'), new \DateTime('2000-01-01 22:00:00'));
// There is also the `isEqual` method to compare two DateTimeRange objects.
$dateTimeRange1->isEqual($dateTimeRange2); // Returns FALSE, because datetime ranges have different timezones
// There is also the `intersects` method to check if datetime range intersected each other.
$dateTimeRange1->intersects($dateTimeRange3); // Returns TRUE, because datetime ranges are intersected
```
#### Examples of date ranges with intersection
#### Examples of date ranges without intersection
### Getting array of objects/strings of all dates in date range
```php
use Fresh\DateTime\DateTimeHelper;
use Fresh\DateTime\DateRange;
$dateTimeHelper = new DateTimeHelper();
$dateRange = new DateRange(new \DateTime('1970-01-01'), new \DateTime('1970-01-03'));
// Creates array with values ['1970-01-01', '1970-01-02', '1970-01-03']
$datesAsStrings = $dateTimeHelper->getDatesFromDateRangeAsArrayOfStrings($dateRange);
// Creates array of \DateTime objects for dates: '1970-01-01', '1970-01-02', '1970-01-03'
$datesAsObjects = $dateTimeHelper->getDatesFromDateRangeAsArrayOfObjects($dateRange);
```
### DateTimeCloner allows to clone dates into `\DateTime` or `\DateTimeImmutable` instances
```php
use Fresh\DateTime\DateTimeCloner;
$dateTimeCloner = new DateTimeCloner();
$date1 = new \DateTime();
$dateImmutable1 = $dateTimeCloner::cloneIntoDateTimeImmutable($date1); // Returns \DateTimeImmutable object
$date2 = $dateTimeCloner::cloneIntoDateTime($dateImmutable1); // Returns \DateTime object
```
