I think this was pre Chornos and all that milarky |
| # |
Jul 4th 2017, 13:57 |

I have also had to change the TimezoneAwareDateTime |

I mean, yes, of course it does |

Really?! |

Your approach works neon |

But thought I would try and get it working with the cake Form->control |
| # |
Jul 4th 2017, 13:41 |
birdy247 |
and just use the i18nFormat to display it correctly |
| # |
Jul 4th 2017, 13:41 |
birdy247 |
in other projects I use a JS datetime picker |
| # |
Jul 4th 2017, 13:40 |
birdy247 |
so use the createdUTC as the value for my "date" input |
| # |
Jul 4th 2017, 13:39 |

I have pretty limited experience of it, being in the UK ;) |

I preferred the data type class, as it meant I was always working in the front-end timezone |
| # |
Jul 4th 2017, 13:38 |
neon1024 |
Then you could just have $entity->get(‘createdUTC’) or something, which just changed the timezone and returned a new date time instance |
| # |
Jul 4th 2017, 13:38 |
neon1024 |
I mean the easiest thing would be to creating an entity virtual field I suppose |
| # |
Jul 4th 2017, 13:38 |

thats what I am using neon1024 :slightly_smiling_face: |

There was a whole bunch of discussion about how to translate between a backend timezone and a front-end timezone. Ionas linked me to the issue ages ago, but I don’t recall what it was called to search for it, or what the upshot was. |

I still use Josés old TimezoneAwareDateTime data type class :slightly_smiling_face: |
| # |
Jul 4th 2017, 13:36 |
neon1024 |
I’d defer to Ionas or Lorenzo on this |
| # |
Jul 4th 2017, 13:36 |

Does the helper take a timezone option? |
| # |
Jul 4th 2017, 13:36 |
birdy247 |
or is it a case of using a Helper? |
| # |
Jul 4th 2017, 13:36 |
birdy247 |
Is there any magic way to do this? |
| # |
Jul 4th 2017, 13:35 |
birdy247 |
and I want it in Europe/London |
| # |
Jul 4th 2017, 13:35 |
birdy247 |
but when the form helper displays the dates, its obv still in UTC |
| # |
Jul 4th 2017, 13:35 |
birdy247 |
I am saving the value from Europe/London to UTC |

Success! |

all good |

Jul 4th 2017, 13:35 |
birdy247 |
which is showing a datetime input |

I am using the cake Form->control |

the progress is staggering compared to doing it with your own libraries |

I remember a few years ago crying and b*tching about cake, asking do I need to use a framework to do things I can do myself.... |

i tried simply adding the condition to the ORM but oc it is ignored |
| # |
Jul 4th 2017, 12:13 |
jarard01 |
hmm ok I have a condition in my beforeFind but I don't want it to be applied in the admin panel |
