Automatic createdAt and updatedAt properties

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

Add the triats to the Repo and Model classes:

```
use Harp\Harp\AbstractModel;
use Harp\Timestamps\TimestampsTrait;

class User extends AbstractModel
{
    use TimestampsTrait;

    public static function initialize($config)
    {
        // Adds events to populate the properties
        TimestampsTrait::initialize($config);
    }
}
```

**Database Table:**

```
┌─────────────────────────┐
│ Table: Category         │
├─────────────┬───────────┤
│ id          │ ingeter   │
│ name        │ string    │
│ createdAt*  │ timestamp │
│ updatedAt*  │ timestamp │
└─────────────┴───────────┘
* Required fields

```

Interface
---------

[](#interface)

```
echo $user->createdAt; // 2014-01-01 00:00:00
echo $user->updatedAt; // 2014-01-01 00:00:00

echo $user->getCreatedAt(); // DateTime object
$user->setCreatedAt(new DateTime());

echo $user->getUpdatedAt(); // DateTime object
$user->setUpdatedAt(new DateTime());
```

Testing
-------

[](#testing)

You can set the "current date" that the the trait uses with the "TimestampsTrait::setCurrentDate($date)" method.

```
TimestampsTrait::setCurrentDate('2014-03-01 10:00:00');

$user = new User();

echo $user->createdAt; // 2014-03-01 10:00:00
echo $user->updatedAt; // 2014-03-01 10:00:00
```
