DateTime

Date, time and datetime primitives for Raxos, built on top of CakePHP Chronos. The package ships three small, immutable value classes (Date, Time and DateTime) that extend Chronos with JSON serialization, string parsing and a regex pattern contract. It also provides Month and Weekday enums, a small DateTimeUtil helper, and optional ORM casters for raxos/database.

Install it with Composer.

composer require raxos/datetime

• Date, Time and DateTime: the three core value objects, how they extend Chronos, and how string parsing and JSON serialization work.
• Enums and utilities: the Month and Weekday enums and the DateTimeUtil helper functions.
• ORM casters: the optional casters for raxos/database model properties.

Quick example

<?php
declare(strict_types=1);

use Raxos\DateTime\{DateTime, Weekday};

$now = DateTime::now();
$weekday = Weekday::fromChronos($now);

echo $now->toIso8601String();
echo $weekday->name;

This creates the current DateTime and resolves the matching Weekday case.
