如何将不同国家语言的日期格式转换为数字日期格式

Question

example

26/Veebr/2020 to 26/02/2020

I have a problem to convert date from a different language to dd/mm/yy

Like:

18/Helmi/2020 to 18/02/2020

Answer 1

With PHP you can created arrays for different languages ​​with elements 'Month Name' => Number. With strtr() the month names are exchanged for numbers. The result can then be parsed with DateTime::createFromFormat.

$transEstonian = ['Veebr' => '02'];  //this for all

$strDate = '26/Veebr/2020';

$strDateNum = strtr($strDate,$transEstonian);
$date = DateTime::createFromFormat("d/m/Y H:i",$strDateNum." 00:00");
echo $date->format('Y-m-d');  //2020-02-26

This can be done with javascript similarly.
