| ``date`` |
| ======== |
| |
| Converts an argument to a date to allow date comparison: |
| |
| .. code-block:: html+twig |
| |
| {% if date(user.created_at) < date('-2days') %} |
| {# do something #} |
| {% endif %} |
| |
| The argument must be in one of PHP’s supported `date and time formats`_. |
| |
| You can pass a timezone as the second argument: |
| |
| .. code-block:: html+twig |
| |
| {% if date(user.created_at) < date('-2days', 'Europe/Paris') %} |
| {# do something #} |
| {% endif %} |
| |
| If no argument is passed, the function returns the current date: |
| |
| .. code-block:: html+twig |
| |
| {% if date(user.created_at) < date() %} |
| {# always! #} |
| {% endif %} |
| |
| .. note:: |
| |
| You can set the default timezone globally by calling ``setTimezone()`` on |
| the ``core`` extension instance:: |
| |
| $twig = new \Twig\Environment($loader); |
| $twig->getExtension(\Twig\Extension\CoreExtension::class)->setTimezone('Europe/Paris'); |
| |
