PHP Dates

See autocomplete for full list of functions:

\District5\Utility\Date::NowPlusXHours(5);

MongoDB UTCDateTime

See autocomplete for function signatures:

use District5\Utility\DateMongo;


DateMongo::MongoUTCDateTimeToPHPDateTime();

DateMongo::MongoUTCDateTimeToTimestampInt();

DateMongo::MongoUTCDateTimeToTimestampMillisInt();

DateMongo::PHPDateTimeToMongoUTCDateTime();

Stopwatch

The stopwatch class can be instantiated and used to measure time at intervals from stopwatch start:

$stopwatch = new \District5\Utility\Stopwatch();
$stopwatch->start();

...

$secondsPassed = $stopwatch->secondsPassed();

You can also set a max time so a boolean check can be made to see if that time has passed. This is useful when working with cron tasks where there is a maximum execution time.

$maxTimeSeconds = 300;

$stopwatch = new \District5\Utility\Stopwatch($maxTimeSeconds);
$stopwatch->start();

while (!$stopwatch->hasMaxTimePassed())
{
    // do some work
}

In the above example you should take into account how long an item could take to process an iteration in the while loop to set the max seconds allowed less than the max time a cron can run - time to process 1 loop iteration.

Timezone

Maintains a list of timezones, their offsets from UTC and a human friendly label. See autocomplete for full list of functions.
