How to format pre-formatted date from storage (not database) in Laravel












0















This question seems identical to other questions regarding dates but mine is quite unique. (Please respect).



In my AppServiceProvider inside Providers, I have this pre-formatted dates strings.



$dates = [
'2018-04-23 11:02:01',
'2018-04-03 09:52:14',
'2018-03-27 06:42:33',
'2018-03-15 08:59:14'
];

view::share('dates', $dates);


In my view, I have this;



<span>{{ $dates[1] }}</span>


...where the output is this;




2018-04-03 09:52:14




...when I am supposed to have an output like this:




04




...just the month. Is there any way I could satisfy the desired output? Thanks!

    How about CarbonCarbon::parse($dates[1])->month?

There are a couple of options here.



First one is to use php with something like this:



date( 'm', strtotime($dates[1])) 


Or, considering you are using Laravel, you could use Carbon:



CarbonCarbon::parse($dates[1])->month

  • May I know why the use or what's the use of "Carbon/Carbon" per se? Thank you.

  • That is the full namespace for Carbon and is required in blade templates.

    – CUGreen
    Jan 3 at 4:06











  • So since I have a pre-given strings, it's best to call it or use it in view, instead in the AppServiceProvider?

  • It's up to you where you use it, depends on your data requirements.
