Laravel Timezone list data/options
==================================

[](#laravel-timezone-list-dataoptions)

This is a helper function that creates a select menu including timezones in human-readable format. Each underlying key is the php-friendly name for the timezone, making it easy to immediately store and use them. The array of timezones and their underlying keys were taken from the repository by [tamaspap](https://github.com/tamaspap/timezones).

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

[](#installation)

Recommended installation of this package is through composer. Include the following in your project's `composer.json` file:

```
"require": {
	"libern/timezone": "dev-master"
}

```

Next, update Composer from the Terminal:

```
composer update

```

Once this operation completes, the final step is to add the service provider. Open `app/config/app.`, and add a new item to the service providers array.

```
'Libern\Timezone\TimezoneServiceProvider'

```

Now it's ready for use!

Usage

[](#usage)

### Timezone Convert Helper Functions

[](#timezone-convert-helper-functions)

#### Timezone List

[](#timezone-list)

Simply get timezone array list:

```
$data = Timezone::getTimezoneInfoList();

```

#### Helpers

[](#helpers)

The package includes two helper functions that make it easy to deal with displaying and storing timezones, `convertFromUTC()` and `convertToUTC()`:

Each function accepts two required parameters and a third optional parameter dealing with the format of the returned timestamp.

```
convertFromUTC($timestamp, $timezone, $format);
convertToUTC($timestamp, $timezone, $format);

```

The first parameter accepts a timestamp, the second accepts the name of the timezone that you are converting to/from. The option values associated with the timezones included in the select form builder can be plugged into here as is. Alternatively, you can use any of [PHP's supported timezones](http://php.net/manual/en/timezones.php).

The third parameter is optional, and default is set to `'Y-m-d H:i:s'`, which is how Laravel natively stores datetimes into the database (the `created_at` and `updated_at` columns).

### Select Form Builder

[](#select-form-builder)

The package also includes a helper function for the creation of the select option. This is created by calling `Timezone::selectForm()`.

The method selectForm accepts four optional parameters, `string selected`, `placeholder`, `array formAttributes`, and `array optionAttributes`. An example of it's use is shown below:

```
$selected = 'US/Central';
$placeholder = 'Select a timezone';
$formAttributes = array('class' => 'swegForm', 'style' => 'float:left;', 'name' => 'timezone');
$optionAttributes = array('customValue' => 'true');

Timezone::selectForm($selected, $placeholder, $formAttributes, $optionAttributes);

```

Note that the `$selected` parameter matches the string to the values on each option, not the display text. The paratmeters `$formAttributes` and `$optionAttributes` can be used for styling, roles, and generally anything you need. This is useful for applying Twitter Bootstrap styling.

Simply returning `Timezone::selectForm()` will output the following:
