INFORMATION FOR DEVELOPERS
|
||||
|
||||
Once the Date API is installed, all functions in the API are available to be used
|
||||
anywhere by any module. If the Date Timezone module is installed, the system site
|
||||
timezone selector and the user timezone selectors are overwritten to allow the
|
||||
selection of timezone names instead of offsets. Proper timezone conversion
|
||||
requires knowledge of those timezone names, something that is not currently
|
||||
available in Drupal core, and the change in selectors makes it possible to track it.
|
||||
|
||||
In most cases, you should enable the Date Timezone module any time you use the
|
||||
Date API to be able to set the site and user timezone names. It is not enabled by
|
||||
default in case another module is setting timezone names in the database.
|
||||
|
||||
The API uses the PHP 5.2 date functions to create and manipulate dates, and
|
||||
contains an option module that will emulate those functions in earlier versions
|
||||
of PHP.
|
||||
|
||||
If you are using PHP 4 or PHP 5.0 or 5.1, native date handling won't work right.
|
||||
Install the Date_PHP4 module to enable wrapper functions so this code will work
|
||||
in old PHP versions.
|
||||
|
||||
Example, the following will create a date for the local value in one
|
||||
timezone, adjust it to a different timezone, then return the offset in seconds
|
||||
in the new timezone for the input date; The offset will be adjusted for both
|
||||
the timezone difference and daylight savings time, if necessary:
|
||||
|
||||
$date = date_create('2007-03-11 02:00:00', timezone_open('America/Chicago'));
|
||||
$chicago_time = date_format($date, 'Y-m-d H:i');
|
||||
|
||||
print 'At '. $chicago_time .' in Chicago, the timezone offset in seconds
|
||||
was '. date_offset_get($date);
|
||||
|
||||
date_timezone_set($date, timezone_open('Europe/Berlin');
|
||||
$berlin_time = date_format($date, 'Y-m-d H:i');
|
||||
|
||||
print 'It was '. $berlin_time .' in Berlin when it
|
||||
was '. $chicago_time .' in Chicago.';
|
||||
print 'At that time in Berlin, the timezone offset in seconds was
|
||||
'. date_offset_get($date);
|
||||
|
||||
A helper function is available, date_make_date($string, $timezone, $type),
|
||||
where $string is a unixtimestamp, an ISO date, or a string like YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS,
|
||||
$timezone is the name of the timezone this date is in, and $type is the type
|
||||
of date it is (DATE_UNIX, DATE_ISO, or DATE_DATETIME). It create and return
|
||||
a date object set to the right date and timezone.
|
||||
|
||||
Simpletest tests for these functions are included in the package.
|
||||
|
||||
Available functions include the following (more documentation is provided in
|
||||
the files):
|
||||
|
||||
============================================================================
|
||||
Date PHP4 Module
|
||||
============================================================================
|
||||
PHP 4 substitutions for the PHP 5 date functions are supplied. Use the PHP 5
|
||||
functions in your code as they would normally be used and the PHP 4
|
||||
alternatives will be automatically be substituted in when needed.
|
||||
|
||||
You cannot do everything with these functions that can be done in PHP 5, but
|
||||
you can create dates, find timezone offsets, and format the results.
|
||||
Timezone handling uses native PHP 5 functions when available and degrades
|
||||
automatically for PHP 4 to use substitutions like those
|
||||
provided in previous versions of the Date and Event modules.
|
||||
|
||||
Read the doxygen documentation in this module for more information
|
||||
about using the functions in ways that will work in PHP 4.
|
||||
|
||||
Simpletest tests for the PHP 4 equivalent functions are included in the package.
|
||||
|
||||
The following functions are emulated in PHP4:
|
||||
date_create()
|
||||
date_date_set()
|
||||
date_format()
|
||||
date_offset_get()
|
||||
date_timezone_set()
|
||||
timezone_abbreviations_list()
|
||||
timezone_identifiers_list()
|
||||
timezone_offset_get()
|
||||
timezone_open()
|
||||
|
||||
============================================================================
|
||||
Preconfigured arrays
|
||||
============================================================================
|
||||
Both translated and untranslated values are available. The date_week_days_ordered()
|
||||
function will shift an array of week day names so it starts with the site's
|
||||
first day of the week, otherwise the weekday names start with Sunday as the first
|
||||
value, the expected order for many php and sql functions.
|
||||
|
||||
date_month_names();
|
||||
date_month_names_abbr();
|
||||
date_month_names_untranslated();
|
||||
date_week_days();
|
||||
date_week_days_abbr();
|
||||
date_week_days_untranslated();
|
||||
date_week_days_ordered();
|
||||
date_years();
|
||||
date_hours();
|
||||
date_minutes();
|
||||
date_seconds();
|
||||
date_timezone_names();
|
||||
date_ampm();
|
||||
|
||||
============================================================================
|
||||
Miscellaneous date manipulation functions
|
||||
============================================================================
|
||||
Pre-defined constants and functions that will handle pre-1970 and post-2038
|
||||
dates in both PHP 4 and PHP 5, in any OS. Dates can be converted from one
|
||||
type to another and date parts can be extracted from any date type.
|
||||
|
||||
DATE_DATETIME
|
||||
DATE_ISO
|
||||
DATE_UNIX
|
||||
DATE_ARRAY
|
||||
DATE_OBJECT
|
||||
DATE_ICAL
|
||||
|
||||
date_convert()
|
||||
date_is_valid();
|
||||
date_part_is_valid();
|
||||
date_part_extract();
|
||||
|
||||
============================================================================
|
||||
Date calculation and navigation
|
||||
============================================================================
|
||||
date_difference() will find the time difference between any two days, measured
|
||||
in seconds, minutes, hours, days, months, weeks, or years.
|
||||
|
||||
date_days_in_month();
|
||||
date_days_in_year();
|
||||
date_weeks_in_year();
|
||||
date_last_day_of_month();
|
||||
date_day_of_week();
|
||||
date_day_of_week_name();
|
||||
date_difference();
|
||||
|
||||
============================================================================
|
||||
Date regex and format helpers
|
||||
============================================================================
|
||||
Pre-defined constants, an array of date format strings and their
|
||||
equivalent regex strings.
|
||||
|
||||
DATE_REGEX_LOOSE is a very loose regex that will pull date parts out
|
||||
of an ISO date with or without separators, using either 'T' or a space
|
||||
to separate date and time, and with or without time.
|
||||
|
||||
date_format_date() is similar to format_date(), except it takes a
|
||||
date object instead of a timestamp as the first parameter.
|
||||
|
||||
DATE_FORMAT_ISO
|
||||
DATE_FORMAT_DATETIME
|
||||
DATE_FORMAT_UNIX
|
||||
DATE_FORMAT_ICAL
|
||||
|
||||
DATE_REGEX_ISO
|
||||
DATE_REGEX_DATETIME
|
||||
DATE_REGEX_LOOSE
|
||||
|
||||
date_format_date();
|
||||
date_t()
|
||||
date_short_formats();
|
||||
date_medium_formats();
|
||||
date_long_formats();
|
||||
date_format_patterns();
|
||||
|
||||
============================================================================
|
||||
Standardized ical parser and creator
|
||||
============================================================================
|
||||
The iCal parser is found in date_api_ical.inc, which is not included by default.
|
||||
Include that file if you want to use these functions:
|
||||
|
||||
Complete rewrite of ical imports to parse vevents, vlocations, valarms,
|
||||
and all kinds of timezone options and repeat rules for ical imports.
|
||||
The function now sticks to parsing the ical into an array that can be used
|
||||
in various ways. It no longer trys to convert timezones while parsing,
|
||||
instead a date_ical_date_format() function is provided that can be used to
|
||||
convert from the ical timezone to whatever timezone is desired in the
|
||||
results. Repeat rules are parsed into an array which other modules can
|
||||
manipulate however they like to create additional events from the results.
|
||||
|
||||
date_ical_export();
|
||||
date_ical_import();
|
||||
date_ical_date_format();
|
||||
|
||||
============================================================================
|
||||
Helpers for portable date SQL
|
||||
============================================================================
|
||||
The SQL functions are found in date_api_sql.inc, which is not included by default.
|
||||
Include that file if you want to use these functions:
|
||||
|
||||
date_sql();
|
||||
date_server_zone_adj();
|
||||
date_sql_concat();
|
||||
date_sql_pad();
|
||||
|
||||
============================================================================
|
||||
Date forms and validators
|
||||
============================================================================
|
||||
Reusable, configurable, self-validating FAPI date elements are found in
|
||||
date_api_elements.inc, which is not included by default. Include it
|
||||
if you want to use these elements. To use them, create a form element
|
||||
and set the '#type' to one of the following:
|
||||
|
||||
date_select
|
||||
The date_select element will create a collection of form elements, with a
|
||||
separate select or textfield for each date part. The whole collection will
|
||||
get re-formatted back into a date value of the requested type during validation.
|
||||
|
||||
date_text
|
||||
The date_text element will create a textfield that can contain a whole
|
||||
date or any part of a date as text. The user input value will be re-formatted
|
||||
back into a date value of the requested type during validation.
|
||||
|
||||
date_timezone
|
||||
The date_timezone element will create a drop-down selector to pick a
|
||||
timezone name.
|
||||
|
||||
The custom date elements require a few other pieces of information to work
|
||||
correctly, like #date_format and #date_type. See the internal documentation
|
||||
for more information.
|
||||
|
||||
============================================================================
|
||||
Date Popup Module
|
||||
============================================================================
|
||||
|
||||
A new module is included in the package that will enable a popup jQuery
|
||||
calendar date picker and timepicker in date and time fields.
|
||||
|
||||
It is implemented as a custom form element, so set '#type' to 'date_popup'
|
||||
to use this element. See the internal documentation for more information.
|
||||
|
||||
============================================================================
|
||||
Date Repeat API
|
||||
============================================================================
|
||||
|
||||
An API for repeating dates is available if installed. It can be used by
|
||||
other modules to create a form element that will allow users to select
|
||||
repeat rules and store those selections in an iCal RRULE string, and a
|
||||
calculation function that will parse the RRULE and return an array of dates
|
||||
that match those rules. The API is implemented in the Date module as a
|
||||
new date widget if the Date Repeat API is installed.
|
||||
|
||||
============================================================================
|
||||
Install file for dependent modules
|
||||
============================================================================
|
||||
|
||||
The following code is an example of what should go in the .install file for
|
||||
any module that uses the new Date API. This is needed to be sure the system
|
||||
is not using an earlier version of the API that didn't include all these new
|
||||
features. Testing for version '5.2' will pick up any version on or after the
|
||||
change to the new API.

||||

||||
