如何在yii2 php中获取服务器的日期时间

Question

Is there any way to GET the current date and time of the server in YiII ?

One solution I have found is below

'created_at' => new \yii\db\Expression('NOW()'), But I don't know it's correct or not.

Any help would be highly appreciated.

Answer 1

You can get this through php by using date('Ymd h:i:s') or date($format) where $format contains the format in which you want the time. This by default gives you date and time for now.

You can take a look at the manual for the formats to use: http://php.net/manual/en/function.date.php
