Create tag for displaying language-specific date parts

[Alexander Obuhovich]

I propose to create tag for displaying language-specific date parts, like weekday, month name etc. on site language, not always on english as date function of php offers.

Actually I have came across this before and did some customization, here is my code for the Languages_tp.php


                /**
* Returns formatted date + time on current language
*
* @param Array $params
* @return string
*/
function CurrentDate($params)
{
$format = $params['format'];
$date = adodb_mktime() + $this->Application->TimeZoneAdjustment();

// special processing for week days and months
if ( (strpos($format, 'l') !== false) || (strpos($format, 'F') !== false) ) {

if ( (strpos($format, 'l') !== false) ) {
$week_day = $this->Application->Phrase('lu_weekday_'.adodb_date('l', $date));
$format = str_replace('l', '#@#', $format); // replace with reserved char (preserves translation link)
}

if ( (strpos($format, 'F') !== false) ) {
$month = $this->Application->Phrase('lu_month_'.adodb_date('F', $date));
$format = str_replace('F', '#@@#', $format); // replace with reserved char (preserves translation link)
}

return str_replace( '#@#', $week_day, str_replace('#@@#', $month, adodb_date($format, $date)) );
}

return adodb_date($format, $date);
}


What if we add parameter to this tag to allow more flexibility so it looks like this:

<inp2:language_CurrentDate use_phrases="1" />

Only then the above phrase conversions will be used?

Here is another version:

/**
         * Returns formatted date + time on current language
         *

         * @param string $format
         * @param int $timestamp
         * @param string $case_suffixes
         * @return string
         */
        function LanguageDate($format, $timestamp = false, $case_suffixes = '')
        {
            if (!$timestamp) $timestamp = adodb_mktime();
            // apply timezone adjustment manually (because we are not using kDateFormatter)
            $date = $timestamp + $this->Application->TimeZoneAdjustment();

            $replacements = Array (
                'l' => 'la_WeekDay',
                'D' => 'la_WeekDay',
                'M' => 'la_Month',
                'F' => 'la_Month',
            );

            if ($case_suffixes) {
                // apply case suffixes (for russian language only)
                $case_suffixes = explode(',', $case_suffixes);

                foreach ($case_suffixes as $case_suffux) {
                    list ($replacement_name, $case_suffix_value) = explode('=', $case_suffux, 2);
                    $replacements[$replacement_name] .= $case_suffix_value;
                }
            }

            foreach ($replacements as $format_char => $phrase_prefix) {
                if (strpos($format, $format_char) === false) {
                    unset($replacements[$format_char]);
                    continue;
                }

                $replacements[$format_char] = $this->Application->Phrase($phrase_prefix . adodb_date($format_char, $date));
                $format = str_replace($format_char, '#' . ord($format_char) . '#', $format);
            }

            $date_formatted = adodb_date($format, $date);

            foreach ($replacements as $format_char => $format_replacement) {
                $date_formatted = str_replace('#' . ord($format_char) . '#', $format_replacement, $date_formatted);
            }

            return $date_formatted;
        }

But it should be converted to tag, because now it's helper method.

[Dmitry A.]

Hi Alex,


Would please clarify on this:

"But it should be converted to tag, because now it's helper method."

I suppose your code is a new task for Language Tag Processor?

Not task, but tag. No, my code is supposed to be new tag in kDBTagProcessor like Field tag is. Only difference is that it will display formatted date field contents. Optional parameter "value" will allow to format any abstract date as well (not from database). Code, I've attached is helper method, that was called from LanguageDate tag.

Tag CurrentDate in LanguageTagProcessor is not related to this discussion in any way.

Sorry - it was a typo. Yes, it's a new tag.

Let's file a task for it.
