碳创造可读的生日

Question

how to create a readable birthday like January 1, 1990 using carbon in laravel.

In my User.php (Model) I have a function that get a birthday column in my database

public function getBirthdayAttribute($birthday)
{
    return $this->attributes['birthday'] = \Carbon\Carbon::????($birthday);
}

How can I get the birthday from mysql database and return it like January 1, 1990. Or something like 1 month to go before your birthday blah blah blah. :D

Thanks

Answer 1

The reliable way:

public function getBirthdayAttribute($birthday)
{
    Try {
      return \Carbon\Carbon::parse($birthday)->diffForHumans(); // 8 months ago / 1 month from now etc
      // or:
      // ->format('F j, Y'); // returns eg. January 1, 2000
    }
    catch (\Exception $e)
      return $birthday;
    }
}

You need to add some logic (print date, print diff or whatever), and it depends on how you store the birthday in the db.
