f3-timezone
===========

[](#f3-timezone)

**Fat-Free Framework plugin to detect and set PHP timezone based on request data.**

This plugin checks for timezone information in the incoming request (`HEADERS`, `GET`, `POST`, `COOKIE`, `SESSION`) and sets it globally using `date_default_timezone_set()`.

💡 Installation
--------------

[](#-installation)

Require via Composer:

```
composer require antonchaikin/f3-timezone
```

Or add manually to `composer.json`:

```
"require": {
  "antonchaikin/f3-timezone": "^1.0"
}
```

🚀 Usage
-------

[](#-usage)

In your `index.php`:

```
use F3Timezone\TimezonePlugin;

$f3 = \Base::instance();

// Register the plugin
TimezonePlugin::register();

// Set timezone from request
$f3->updateTimezone();
```

📦 What it does
--------------

[](#-what-it-does)

- Searches for a timezone value in:
    - `HEADERS`
    - `GET`
    - `POST`
    - `COOKIE`
    - `SESSION`
- Accepts only valid [PHP timezones](https://www.php.net/manual/en/timezones.php)
- Automatically applies it using `date_default_timezone_set(...)`

✅ Example
---------

[](#-example)

If a client sends this header:

```
Timezone: Europe/Warsaw

```

The plugin will detect it and call:

```
date_default_timezone_set('Europe/Warsaw');
```
