How to deal with datatype TIME in Illuminate/Carbon












0















I am working with a database that has the following columns (MariaDB):




  • EventDate (Datatype DATE)

  • EventStart (Datatype TIME)

  • EventEnd (Datatype TIME)


In the model I assign the first field (EventDate) with:



...
protected $dates = ['EventDate'];
...


which is then be formated later with:



$event->EventDate->formatLocalized('%a. %d.%m.%y')


Now, I want to set the format of the times with a simliar approach, but if I add the next field into the array:



...
protected $dates = ['EventDate', 'EventStart'];
...


And I receive the following Error Message:



Uncaught InvalidArgumentException: Unexpected data found.


Has anybody an idea how to solve that issue?
Thanks to you!

  • Those aren't dates so you probably can't add them to that array. I have avoided using time columns for this exact reason when I know I'm going to need it to be formatted.

  • yes, i finally figured out that TIME comes as a String-Type in PHP and needs to be casted to DATETIME. I found a solution with an Accessor (see below)

As a column with the datatype TIME comes in PHP as a String-Type, I achieved my problem with an Accessor:



public function getEventEndAttribute($value) {
return $this->attributes['EventEnd'] = (Carbon::createFromFormat('H:i:s', $value));
}


and then I was able to give my own format in the outputting script:



$event->EventEnd->format('H:i');
