``format_datetime``
===================
The ``format_datetime`` filter formats a date time:
.. code-block:: twig
{# Aug 7, 2019, 11:39:12 PM #}
{{ '2019-08-07 23:39:12'|format_datetime() }}
You can tweak the output for the date part and the time part:
.. code-block:: twig
{# 23:39 #}
{{ '2019-08-07 23:39:12'|format_datetime('none', 'short', locale='fr') }}
{# 07/08/2019 #}
{{ '2019-08-07 23:39:12'|format_datetime('short', 'none', locale='fr') }}
{# mercredi 7 août 2019 23:39:12 UTC #}
{{ '2019-08-07 23:39:12'|format_datetime('full', 'full', locale='fr') }}
Supported values are: ``none``, ``short``, ``medium``, ``long``, and ``full``.
For greater flexiblity, you can even define your own pattern (see the `ICU user
guide
<https://unicode-org.github.io/icu/userguide/format_parse/datetime/#datetime-format-syntax>`_
for supported patterns).
.. code-block:: twig
{# 11 oclock PM, GMT #}
{{ '2019-08-07 23:39:12'|format_datetime(pattern="hh 'oclock' a, zzzz") }}
By default, the filter uses the current locale. You can pass it explicitly:
.. code-block:: twig
{# 7 août 2019 23:39:12 #}
{{ '2019-08-07 23:39:12'|format_datetime(locale='fr') }}
.. note::
The ``format_datetime`` 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());
