Problem in date format in laravel?

You can use Carbon preferred for work with dates. And choice where to format the values is your. You can use accessor in ther model, or Carbon in views

add date to your $dates array in the model. The date will then be automatically converted to a carbon object when you retrieve it

You can then use all of Carbon's format options in the view

https://laravel.com/docs/5.6/eloquent-mutators#date-mutators

To use this, your date field must be in one of the datetime formats in the database, not just a string

@yordanovbg thank you for your reply but how to use that.. is there some other way.

@Snapey thank you sooo much for your reply,

this is my controller

 $pays = Pay::orderBy('created_at','desc')->paginate(5);

         return view('Pay.view')->withpays($pays);

this is my pay.view blade file

 @foreach($pays as $pay)
                <tr>

                    <td>{{ $pay->date }}</td>
</tr>

this is my model

<?php

namespace App;

use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;

class Pay extends Model
{
    public $table= 'pay';
}

My problem is the date returned in view file is in format(yyyy-mm-dd)

the correction u said where i should update..

where the changes should be made and how??

Use the docs!

model

<?php

namespace App;

use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;

class Pay extends Model
{
    public $table= 'pay';

    protected $dates = [
        'created_at',
        'updated_at',
        'date'
    ];

}

When you want a formatted date, chain it onto the date which is now an object;

  <td>{{ $pay->date->format('d-m-Y') }}</td>

@Snapey thank you for your reply,, sorry sterday leave so cant check this

your suggestions worked out but,

my problem is i have search box

the search box accepting the date input as (yyyy--mm-dd)

if i give in this format it fetches the info correctly from DB.

But if i give it in dd-mm-yyyy format it doesnt matching

Kindly reply for this please

@Snapey ?? what mistake iam doing?

show your search code

So dates in the db are stored yyyy-mm-dd. You converted it to dd-mm-yyyy for your form. So when it's sent back you need to turn it back into yyyy-mm-dd in order to search in the db (or store it).

// retrieve the date from the form submission
// example 02-04-2018
$date = $request->date;

// turn it into a carbon instance using createFromFormat to tell it your original format
// it's now a carbon instance
$date = Carbon::createFromFormat('d-m-Y', $date);

// turn it into a Date String
// example 2018-04-02
$date->toDateString();

// putting it all together in single line (instead of doing 3 steps above)
$date = Carbon::createFromFormat('d-m-Y', $request->date)->toDateString();

Now you can search the db by $date, or store $date in the db.
