# jDate Bundle for Laravel #

This bundle helps developers to easily work with Jalali (Shamsi or Iranian) dates in Laravel applications, based on [Jalali (Shamsi) DateTime](https://github.com/sallar/jDateTime) class.

## Features ##

- You can pass strings or raw timestamps to make dates. e.g: Next Tuesday

- You can reforge the current date. e.g: +3 days

- You can format date using `strftime()` parameters.

## Install ##

To install using artisan run the following CLI command:  

```

php artisan bundle:install jdate

```  

Or just copy the downloaded package to ``app/bundles``  

Then in ``application/bundles.php`` add:

```php

'jdate' => array('auto' => true),

```

## Examples ##

Some Examples

```php

// default timestamp is now

$date = jDate::forge();

// pass timestamps

$date = jDate::forge(1333857600);

// pass strings to make timestamps

$date = jDate::forge('last sunday');

// get the timestamp

$date = jDate::forge('last sunday')->time(); // 1333857600

// format the timestamp

$date = jDate::forge('last sunday')->format('%B %d، %Y'); // دی 02، 1391

// get a predefined format

$date = jDate::forge('last sunday')->format('datetime'); // 1391-10-02 00:00:00

$date = jDate::forge('last sunday')->format('date'); // 1391-10-02

$date = jDate::forge('last sunday')->format('time'); // 00:00:00

// amend the timestamp value, relative to existing value

$date = jDate::forge('2012-10-12')->reforge('+ 3 days')->format('date'); // 1391-07-24

// get relative 'ago' format

$date = jDate::forge('now - 10 minutes')->ago() // ۱۰ دقیقه پیش

```

## Formatting ##

For help in building your formats, checkout the [PHP strftime() docs](http://php.net/manual/en/function.strftime.php).

## Notes ##

The class relies on ``strtotime()`` to make sense of your strings, and ``strftime()`` to make the format changes.  Just always check the ``time()`` output to see if you get false timestamps... which means the class couldn't understand what you were telling it.
