dateFormatFromString()

Format dates and times for localization in numeric short format

dateFormatFromString(string $datetime) : string

Use it for displaying data to the user, not formatting data for the db.

If $datetime is not parseable then its value is returned unformated.

If IntlDateFormatter instanciation fails then the date is formated with "Y-M-d H:i:s" pattern.

Parameters
$datetime : string

comes in from the database in the format 'YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS' e.g. 2013-01-31 15:54:55

Return values
string

dateFormatFromTimeStamp()

Format dates and times for localization in numeric short format

dateFormatFromTimeStamp(int $timestamp) : string

Use it for displaying data to the user, not formatting data for the db.

If IntlDateFormatter instanciation fails then the date is formated with "Y-M-d H:i:s" pattern.

Parameters
$timestamp : int
Return values
string

Parameters
$domain : string
$locale : string
Return values
array<string|int, mixed>

determine_locale()

Determine the user's preferred language.

determine_locale([string|null $force_locale = NULL ]) : string

This function builds a language priority stack and return the first entry as the user's preferred language.

If $force_locale is passed, this function will try to use this locale first.

Parameters
$force_locale : string|null = NULL

Code of a locale (format: ll[_Script][_CC])(optional, NULL by default)

Return values
string

determine_locale_priority_stack()

Determine the user's preferred language.

determine_locale_priority_stack([string|null $force_locale = NULL ]) : array<string|int, string>

This function builds a language priority stack. The first is the highest priority.

If $force_locale is passed, this function will try to use this locale first.

Parameters
$force_locale : string|null = NULL

Code of a locale (format: ll[_Script][_CC])(optional, NULL by default)

Return values
array<string|int, string>

getAllLocales()

Return a selected list of all locales recognised by Intl and usable for translation and formatting

getAllLocales([bool $sorted_by_key = FALSE ]) : array<string|int, string>

Each entry of the returned array is locale code (format: ll[_Script][_CC]) as key and its name as value [format: language (Country, Variant)].

ll is a mandatory language code CC is an optional country code variant is an optional script, money or collation code

Parameters
$sorted_by_key : bool = FALSE

If TRUE, sort the table by keys instead of values

localetoBCP47()

Return the BCP 47 code that matches the code of a locale.

localetoBCP47(string $locale) : string

The BCP 47 code is used in the lang attribute of any HTML tag. The list of supported languages is simple enough to avoid having to encounter any particular case.

Parameters
$locale : string

getTranslatableLocales()

Get a list of translatable locales sorted by locale name

getTranslatableLocales(string $in_locale) : array<string|int, string>

This is a list of locales that a translator can use to translate a text, and not a list of locales currently available on the system.

Parameters
$in_locale : string

Transalate locales names with local $in_locale

Return values
array<string|int, string> —

Each key is a locale code and its value a displayname.

searchLanguageCode()

Return the language code matching a language name

searchLanguageCode(string $language_name) : string

If no language code matchs the name, return "".

NB: this function is slow and should not be used outside the upgrade code

Parameters
$language_name : string
Return values
string

sort()

Sort an array according to the current Intl locale in ascending order

sort(array<string|int, mixed> &$array[, int $flags = Collator::SORT_REGULAR ]) : bool

If you really need more flexibility or the full power of an Unicode sort algo, use the original function.

Parameters
$array : array<string|int, mixed>

Array of strings to sort.

$flags : int = Collator::SORT_REGULAR

Optional sorting type, one of the following:

  • Collator::SORT_REGULAR - compare items normally (don't change types)
  • Collator::SORT_NUMERIC - compare items numerically
  • Collator::SORT_STRING - compare items as strings Default sorting type is Collator::SORT_REGULAR. It is also used if an invalid flags value has been specified.

return bool TRUE on success, FALSE otherwise
