Have your own tardis
====================

[](#have-your-own-tardis)

This is a very tiny symfony (2&3) bundle that simplifies usage of [php-timecop](https://github.com/hnw/php-timecop). To use this extension you need a php server with configured `timecop.so` extension. In case of troubles with compilation I can provide some extra instructions.

Warning!
--------

[](#warning)

**Using this extension same as [php-timecop](https://github.com/hnw/php-timecop) alone can be very dangerous especially on production environment. Use it wisely.**

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

[](#installation)

```
composer require kolemp/timecop-bundle
```

Configuration
-------------

[](#configuration)

After installation add the bundle to `app/AppKernel.php`. By default the extension is disabled. To enable it add a section to `config.yml` for environments you want it to be enabled:

```
kolemp_timecop:
  enabled: true
```

Time sources
------------

[](#time-sources)

You can set the time by query parameter or the cookie. Both are named `fakeTime`. The value given must be compatibile with [relative date formats](http://php.net/manual/en/datetime.formats.relative.php). Example url: *example.com?fakeTime=+3 days*

### Disabling time source

[](#disabling-time-source)

You can disable any of time sources in config. By default all are enabled:

```
kolemp_timecop:
  queryParameter: true
  cookie: true
  header: true
```

### Source order

[](#source-order)

The time data is used in the following order: the header, the cookie, the query parameter.
