| ``format_date`` |
| =============== |
| |
| The ``format_date`` filter formats a date. It behaves in the exact same way as |
| the :doc:`format_datetime<format_datetime>` filter, but without the time. |
| |
| .. note:: |
| |
| The ``format_date`` filter is part of the ``IntlExtension`` which is not |
| installed by default. Install it first: |
| |
| .. code-block:: bash |
| |
| $ composer require twig/intl-extra |
| |
| Then, on Symfony projects, install the ``twig/extra-bundle``: |
| |
| .. code-block:: bash |
| |
| $ composer require twig/extra-bundle |
| |
| Otherwise, add the extension explicitly on the Twig environment:: |
| |
| use Twig\Extra\Intl\IntlExtension; |
| |
| $twig = new \Twig\Environment(...); |
| $twig->addExtension(new IntlExtension()); |
| |
