BanglaDateTime
==============

[](#bangladatetime)

**BanglaDateTime** is a Laravel package that allows you to easily format and convert DateTime to the Bangla calendar and Bangla number formats. It supports both current time and custom dates, as well as timezones.

Features
--------

[](#features)

- Convert DateTime to Bangla format.
- Convert to the Bangla calendar (Bengali Era).
- Supports custom dates and timezones.
- Easy to use with a fluent API.
- Helper functions for easy access to common operations.

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

You can install the package via [Composer](https://getcomposer.org/):

```
composer require bangladatetime/laravel
```

Laravel Integration
-------------------

[](#laravel-integration)

To integrate **BanglaDateTime** with Laravel, follow these steps:

1. **Publish the Configuration File:**

    Run the following command to publish the package configuration file:

    ```
    php artisan vendor:publish --provider="BanglaDateTime\Laravel\BanglaDateTimeServiceProvider"
    ```

    This will create a configuration file at `config/bangladatetime.php`.
2. **Configuration:**

    Edit the `config/bangladatetime.php` file to set your desired date formats and timezone.
3. **Usage:**

    The package integrates with Laravel's `Carbon` class, allowing you to use custom methods to format dates in Bangla format and Bangla calendar directly.

### Using with Eloquent Models

[](#using-with-eloquent-models)

If you have a model with a `datetime` cast, you can easily format the datetime attributes using the BanglaDateTime methods. For example:

```
use App\Models\User;

// Retrieve a user and format the created_at attribute in Bangla format
$user = User::find(1);
echo $user->created_at->formatBangla('l jS F Y h:i:s');

// Format the created_at attribute in Bangla calendar format
echo $user->created_at->toBangla('l jS F Y h:i:s');
```

**Output:**

```
Created at with Bangla format: বৃহস্পতিবার ১২ই সেপ্টেম্বর ২০২৪ ০৩:৩৭:০৩
Created at converted to Bangla: বৃহস্পতিবার ২৮শে ভাদ্র ১৪৩১ ০৩:৩৭:০৩

```

### Basic Example

[](#basic-example)

```
use Illuminate\Support\Carbon;

// Get current date and time in Bangla format
echo Carbon::now()->formatBangla('l jS F Y h:i:s');

// Get current date and time in Bangla calendar format
echo Carbon::now()->toBangla('l jS F Y h:i:s');
```

**Output:**

```
Current time with Bangla format: বৃহস্পতিবার ১২ই সেপ্টেম্বর ২০২৪ ০৩:৩৭:০৩
Current time converted to Bangla: বৃহস্পতিবার ২৮শে ভাদ্র ১৪৩১ ০৩:৩৭:০৩

```

### Setting a Custom Date

[](#setting-a-custom-date)

```
use Illuminate\Support\Carbon;

// Set a custom date ('2023-04-13') in Bangla format
echo Carbon::create('2023-04-13')->formatBangla('l jS F Y h:i:s');

// Set a custom date ('2023-04-13') in Bangla calendar format
echo Carbon::create('2023-04-13')->toBangla('l jS F Y h:i:s');
```

**Output:**

```
Set Time with Bangla format: বৃহস্পতিবার ১৩ই এপ্রিল ২০২৩ ১২:০০:০০
Set Time & converted to Bangla: বৃহস্পতিবার ৩০শে চৈত্র ১৪২৯ ১২:০০:০০

```

### Working with Timezones

[](#working-with-timezones)

```
use Illuminate\Support\Carbon;

// Set current time with a specific timezone ('Asia/Dhaka') in Bangla format
echo Carbon::now('Asia/Dhaka')->formatBangla('l jS F Y h:i:s');

// Set current time with a specific timezone ('Asia/Dhaka') in Bangla calendar format
echo Carbon::now('Asia/Dhaka')->toBangla('l jS F Y h:i:s');
```

**Output:**

```
Set Time & Time Zone with Bangla format: বৃহস্পতিবার ১২ই সেপ্টেম্বর ২০২৪ ০৯:৩৭:০৩
Set Time & Time Zone & converted to Bangla: বৃহস্পতিবার ২৮শে ভাদ্র ১৪৩১ ০৯:৩৭:০৩

```

### Custom Format and Timezone

[](#custom-format-and-timezone)

You can specify a custom format and timezone when calling `formatBangla` and `toBangla` methods:

```
use Illuminate\Support\Carbon;

// Get current date and time in Bangla format with a custom format and timezone
echo Carbon::now()->formatBangla('d/m/Y H:i:s', 'Asia/Dhaka');

// Get current date and time in Bangla calendar format with a custom format and timezone
echo Carbon::now()->toBangla('d/m/Y H:i:s', 'Asia/Dhaka');
```

**Output:**

```
Custom Time with Bangla format: ১২/০৯/২০২৪ ১৫:৩৭:০৩
Custom Time & converted to Bangla: ২৮/ভাদ্র/১৪৩১ ১৫:৩৭:০৩

```
