35 Koha::DateUtils - Transitional wrappers to ease use of DateTime
39 Koha has historically only used dates not datetimes and been content to
40 handle these as strings. It also has confused formatting with actual dates
41 this is a temporary module for wrappers to hide the complexity of switch to DateTime
47 $dt = dt_from_string($date_string, [$format, $timezone ]);
49 Passed a date string returns a DateTime object format and timezone default
50 to the system preferences. If the date string is empty DateTime->now is returned
55 my ( $date_string, $date_format, $tz ) = @_;
57 $tz = C4::Context->tz;
59 if ( !$date_format ) {
60 $date_format = C4::Context->preference('dateformat');
63 if ( ref($date_string) eq 'DateTime' ) { # already a dt return it
67 if ( $date_format eq 'metric' ) {
68 $date_string =~ s#-#/#g;
69 $date_string =~ s/^00/01/; # system allows the 0th of the month
70 $date_string =~ s#^(\d{1,2})/(\d{1,2})#$2/$1#;
72 if ( $date_format eq 'iso' ) {
73 $date_string =~ s/-00/-01/;

77 } elsif ( $date_format eq 'us' ) {
78 $date_string =~ s#-#/#g;
79 $date_string =~ s[/00/][/01/];
80 } elsif ( $date_format eq 'sql' ) {
82 s/(\d{4})(\d{2})(\d{2})\s+(\d{2})(\d{2})(\d{2})/$1-$2-$3T$4:$5:$6/;

89 return DateTime->now( time_zone => $tz );

97 Returns a string containing the time & date formatted as per the C4::Context setting,
98 or C<undef> if C<undef> was provided.
100 A second parameter allows overriding of the syspref value. This is for testing only
101 In usage use the DateTime objects own methods for non standard formatting

138 In usage use the DateTime objects own methods for non standard formatting
140 This is effectivelyt a wrapper around output_pref for due dates
