Class

DateObject

Extend PHP DateTime class with granularity handling, merge functionality and slightly more flexible initialization parameters.

Code

public function setFuzzyDate($date, $format = NULL, $default = 'first') {
  $comp = new DateObject($date, $this
    ->getTimeZone()
    ->getName(), $format);
  $arr = $comp
    ->toArray(TRUE);
  foreach ($arr as $key => $value) {

    // Set to intval here and then test that it is still an integer.
    // Needed because sometimes valid integers come through as strings.
    $arr[$key] = $this
      ->forceValid($key, intval($value), $default, $arr['month'], $arr['year']);
  }
  $this
    ->setDate($arr['year'], $arr['month'], $arr['day']);
  $this
    ->setTime($arr['hour'], $arr['minute'], $arr['second']);
