GMT == UTZ |
| # |
Feb 9th 2018, 21:33 |
kevin |
right? |
| # |
Feb 9th 2018, 21:33 |
kevin |
no UTC is 0 |
| # |
Feb 9th 2018, 21:33 |
kevin |
I changed it in the app to be -7 GMT |

lol |
| # |
Feb 9th 2018, 21:33 |
ricksaccous |
I don't even know |
| # |
Feb 9th 2018, 21:33 |
ricksaccous |
is -7 GMT same as UTC? |
| # |
Feb 9th 2018, 21:33 |
ricksaccous |
the frozenTime object assumes UTC i think |
| # |
Feb 9th 2018, 21:32 |
kevin |
any issue with my single point of truth being -7 GMT? |
| # |
Feb 9th 2018, 21:32 |
ricksaccous |
that way you have a single point of truth when you change the Timezone per user |
| # |
Feb 9th 2018, 21:31 |
ricksaccous |
but also, you should be storing times in your DB in UTC |
| # |
Feb 9th 2018, 21:31 |
ricksaccous |
that's shown in the Helper docs i linked you |
| # |
Feb 9th 2018, 21:31 |
kevin |
so my DB is in -7GMT, but I want to let people select their own timezone and have the displayed time adjust |
| # |
Feb 9th 2018, 21:30 |
kevin |
yeah but im trying to implement account based timezones |
| # |
Feb 9th 2018, 21:29 |
ricksaccous |
but your entity should already be a FrozenTime object |
| # |
Feb 9th 2018, 21:29 |
ricksaccous |
actually it's fine i guess |
| # |
Feb 9th 2018, 21:29 |
ricksaccous |
and use ummm |
| # |
Feb 9th 2018, 21:29 |
ricksaccous |
it's actually best practice to not use that helper |

ricksaccous |
there is no parse method |
| # |
Feb 9th 2018, 21:26 |
kevin |
that line was pretty close… Call to a member function nice() on null |
| # |
Feb 9th 2018, 21:26 |
ricksaccous |
so if you use html helper you would also do $this->Html |
| # |
Feb 9th 2018, 21:26 |
ricksaccous |
rather |
| # |
Feb 9th 2018, 21:26 |
ricksaccous |
well not all the same, they follow the same conventions |
| # |
Feb 9th 2018, 21:26 |
ricksaccous |
all helpers are the same, you can see it in TimeHelper documentation |
| # |
Feb 9th 2018, 21:26 |
ricksaccous |
it's a helper |
| # |
Feb 9th 2018, 21:26 |
kevin |
is there any where I could have looked to find this without asking in slack? |
| # |
Feb 9th 2018, 21:25 |
ricksaccous |
;) |
| # |
Feb 9th 2018, 21:25 |
ricksaccous |
$this->Time->parse($widget['time'])->nice('-7:00'); |
| # |
Feb 9th 2018, 21:25 |
ricksaccous |
$this->Time->parse(); |
| # |
Feb 9th 2018, 21:23 |
kevin |
So how do you use it them? If I try to use $time = Time::parse($widget[‘time’]); $time->nice(‘-07:00’), I get errors about using Time:: |

Does anyone unit test their model relationships, or is that considered testing the framework? |
| # |
Feb 9th 2018, 20:58 |
ricksaccous |
you don't have to do any of that |
| # |
Feb 9th 2018, 20:58 |
ricksaccous |
it's included by default through Core or something |
| # |
Feb 9th 2018, 20:58 |
ricksaccous |
nah |

for TimeHelper, its used in the view, but do you put the ‘use Cake\View\Helper\TimeHelper’ line in the controller, or at the top of the viw? |

afterFind method of a model, Do i need to also re call $this->save($entity)? |
| # |
Feb 9th 2018, 19:50 |
aro |
to save it |
| # |
Feb 9th 2018, 19:50 |
aro |
mark, with your tag plugin, do all we need is a comma delimited field called 'tag_list' with the model that is being tagged? |

is there something baked into cakephp that can automagically handle timezones? like, if I have a timezone variable for the users session |
