Eksempel #1 datefmt_create() example


<?php
$fmt = datefmt_create( "en_US" ,IntlDateFormatter::FULL, IntlDateFormatter::FULL,
    'America/Los_Angeles', IntlDateFormatter::GREGORIAN  );
echo "First Formatted output is ".datefmt_format( $fmt , 0);
$fmt = datefmt_create( "de-DE" ,IntlDateFormatter::FULL, IntlDateFormatter::FULL,
    'America/Los_Angeles',IntlDateFormatter::GREGORIAN  );
echo "Second Formatted output is ".datefmt_format( $fmt , 0);

$fmt = datefmt_create( "en_US" ,IntlDateFormatter::FULL, IntlDateFormatter::FULL,
     'America/Los_Angeles',IntlDateFormatter::GREGORIAN  ,"MM/dd/yyyy");
echo "First Formatted output with pattern is ".datefmt_format( $fmt , 0);
$fmt = datefmt_create( "de-DE" ,IntlDateFormatter::FULL, IntlDateFormatter::FULL,
     'America/Los_Angeles',IntlDateFormatter::GREGORIAN  ,"MM/dd/yyyy");
echo "Second Formatted output with pattern is ".datefmt_format( $fmt , 0);
?>

Eksempel #2 OO example


<?php
$fmt = new IntlDateFormatter( "en_US" ,IntlDateFormatter::FULL, IntlDateFormatter::FULL,
    'America/Los_Angeles',IntlDateFormatter::GREGORIAN  );
echo "First Formatted output is ".$fmt->format(0);
$fmt = new IntlDateFormatter( "de-DE" ,IntlDateFormatter::FULL, IntlDateFormatter::FULL, 
    'America/Los_Angeles',IntlDateFormatter::GREGORIAN  );
echo "Second Formatted output is ".$fmt->format(0);

$fmt = new IntlDateFormatter( "en_US" ,IntlDateFormatter::FULL, IntlDateFormatter::FULL, 
     'America/Los_Angeles',IntlDateFormatter::GREGORIAN  ,"MM/dd/yyyy");
echo "First Formatted output with pattern is ".$fmt->format(0);
$fmt = new IntlDateFormatter( "de-DE" ,IntlDateFormatter::FULL, IntlDateFormatter::FULL,
      'America/Los_Angeles',IntlDateFormatter::GREGORIAN , "MM/dd/yyyy");
echo "Second Formatted output with pattern is ".$fmt->format(0);
?>

The above example will output:

First Formatted output is Wednesday, December 31, 1969 4:00:00 PM PT
Second Formatted output is Mittwoch, 31. Dezember 1969 16:00 Uhr GMT-08:00
First Formatted output with pattern is 12/31/1969
Second Formatted output with pattern is 12/31/1969

Documentation says "timezone: Time zone ID, default is system default."

The "system default" really means only the "TZ" environment variable on Unix/Linux systems. It does not mean PHP ini setting or value set via date_default_timezone_set() or the OS default time zone in file "/etc/timezone".

It should be noted that the locale string passed into IntlDateFormatter's constructor supports UCA keywords. So you can, for example, do things like this to output the year as a Japanese era year:



<?php

$now = new DateTime();    //DateTime is a core PHP class as of version 5.2.0



$formatter = new IntlDateFormatter('ja_JP', IntlDateFormatter::FULL,

        IntlDateFormatter::FULL, 'Asia/Tokyo', IntlDateFormatter::GREGORIAN);



echo 'It is now: "' . $formatter->format($now) . '" in Tokyo' . "\n";

//above gives [It is now: "2011年8月19日金曜日 23時32分27秒JST" in Tokyo]



$formatter = new IntlDateFormatter('ja_JP@calendar=japanese', IntlDateFormatter::FULL,

        IntlDateFormatter::FULL, 'Asia/Tokyo', IntlDateFormatter::TRADITIONAL);



echo 'It is now: "' . $formatter->format($now) . '" in Tokyo' . "\n";

//above gives [It is now: "平成23年8月19日金曜日 23時32分27秒JST" in Tokyo]

?>

The documentation says that $datetype and $timetype can also be NULL,  in which case ICUʼs default date type or time type will be used.

But when declare (strict_types=1); is also set, Intl fails to create the IntlDateFormatter class, and it returns an error "datefmt_create: unable to parse input parameters".

Just to be clear, to use any non-gregorian calendar:

a. The locale must be in the form of locale@calendar=calendar-name

b. The calendar must use the intlDateFormatter::TRADITIONAL constant, or an intlCalendar object created with a locale as specified in a.
 
The calendar name can be 'gregorian', even if the intlDateFormatter::TRADITIONAL constant is used, which makes for a more generic code approach.
