Installation ------------ [](#installation) You can install the package via composer: ``` composer require grantholle/laravel-timezone ``` You can publish and run the migrations with: ``` php artisan vendor:publish --tag="timezone-migrations" php artisan migrate ``` > **Note**If you use multiple models that authenticate, you will want to add a column to each of them. You can publish the config file with: ``` php artisan vendor:publish --tag="timezone-config" ``` Usage ----- [](#usage) The package will automatically set a `timezone` property to the user logging in to the app. If the `overwite` option is set in the `timezone` config, it will check each time the user logs in. Under the hood, this package relies on the [stevebauman/location](https://github.com/stevebauman/location) package to detect where the user is based on IP address and the appropriate timezone. Under its hood, it's relying on Laravel's `request()->ip()` function, which relies on Symfony's `Request` object to detect IP addresses. If you're experiencing issues of detecting the wrong timezones and therefore wrong IP address, it's likely due to [trusted proxy](https://laravel.com/docs/10.x/requests#configuring-trusted-proxies) configuration issues. Check out that documentation for more details. You can change which events the timezone is set or opt out of this feature by changing the config's `events` option. ``` 'events' => [ // By default, the Login event \Illuminate\Auth\Events\Login::class, // Another event which deals with a user \App\Events\MyEvent::class, ], ``` To ignore this feature, set `events` to be [empty](https://www.php.net/manual/en/function.empty.php). Aside from timezone detection, you can use several helpers around dates for the authenticated user. ### Suggested configuration [](#suggested-configuration) The functions that return date objects return CarbonImmutable objects. To save yourself a lot of headaches, you should use them in your application, too. In your `AppServiceProvider`'s boot function, ``` \Illuminate\Support\Facades\Date::use(\Carbon\CarbonImmutable::class); ``` ### Cheatsheet [](#cheatsheet) Below is a set of examples using the facade and available helper functions. ``` use GrantHolle\Timezone\Facades\Timezone; // Get the user's or app default timezone $string = Timezone::getCurrentTimezone(); $string = timezone(); // Get a collection of timezones and a labeled version of them. // The key is the timezone and the value is a formatted label. Timezone::timezones(); timezones(); // Convert a date to the user's timezone // This will return a CarbonImmutable instance $carbonImmutable = Timezone::toLocal($utcDate); // Optionally you can pass in a format or use // the toLocalFormatted function $string = Timezone::toLocal($utcDate, 'Y-m-d'); $string = to_local_timezone($utcDate, 'Y-m-d'); // Leaving out the last parameter will use the config's `format` value $string = Timezone::toLocalFormatted($utcDate); $carbonImmutable = to_local_timezone($utcDate); // Convert user's dates to your app's timezone. // It relies on Carbon's `parse` function, so you // can pass many things to it to parse. $carbonImmutable = Timezone::fromLocal($usersDate); $carbonImmutable = from_local_timezone($usersDate); // Helpers to get the user's "today" and "now" values $carbonImmutable = Timezone::today(); $carbonImmutable = local_today(); $carbonImmutable = Timezone::now(); $carbonImmutable = local_now(); ``` Testing ------- [](#testing) ``` composer test ``` Changelog --------- [](#changelog) Please see [CHANGELOG](CHANGELOG.md) for more information on what has changed recently.
