Use it as a Carbon instance, that way you can access the date, time desperately (even the day, month, year, hours, minutes, and so on) docs on carbon – Radiology

Answer 1

You can do

 $model->created_at->format('Y-m-d');

to format a specific date. This solution will only work if your date is a Carbon instance. Or you can use Mutators to format a date by default and make it a Carbon instance if necessary.https://laravel.com/docs/5.3/eloquent-mutators#date-mutators

Answer 2

Carbon comes with multiple setters and getters.

http://carbon.nesbot.com/docs/#api-getters

If you have a datetime string and you want to use it with a Carbon instance you can do:

$date = \Carbon\Carbon::parse('2016-11-01 15:04:19');

Then you can do something like:

$date->format('Y-m-d')
$date->format('H:i:s')

That being said, if you are getting this datetime from an Eloquent model then you should look at @AlexeyMezenin or @Christophvh answer.

Hope this helps!

if you try these,

$stringTime = '2016-11-01 15:04:19';

return date('Y-m-d', strtotime($stringTime));

return date('H:i:s', strtotime($stringTime));

And carbon also avail,

Carbon::parse();

Answer 4

If your date it Carbon object, you can do this:

$date->toTimeString(); // Will output 14:15:16.
$date->toDateString(); // Will output 1975-12-25.
$date->toFormattedDateString(); // Will output Dec 25, 1975.

If you store this date in DB and if it's not Carbon instance, use date mutator which will convert date to istances of Carbon:

protected $dates = [
    'custom_date',
];

And if you're getting date from some other source, you can create an instance of Carbon and parse() the date:

Carbon::parse($custom_date);

After this you can use methods listed above.

Answer 5

A Laravel model's serializeDate function can be used to change the date format for different date attributes. This method allows you to choose the format in which dates need to be formatted.

protected function serializeDate($date){
    return $date->format('Y-m-d');
}
