PHP day of week numeric to day of week text
This may be really easy but I can't find a PHP function to do this...
OK so
$dow_numeric = date('w');
gives the numeric day of the week 0-6 for Sunday to Saturday.
And
$dow_text = date('D');
gives the 3 letter abbreviation for the text day of the week (Sun, Mon, etc.)
Is there a开发者_Python百科 function or easy way to use $dow_numeric
to get $dow_text
? If I have '0' as $dow_numeric
, how can I make $dow_text = 'Sun'
? Yes a switch
statement could do the job, but I’m looking for a more elegant solution.
Bit of a hack, but:
$dow_text = date('D', strtotime("Sunday +{$dow_numeric} days"));
It's not popular, but there's actually a function jddayofweek
for this in PHP. You can call it with the second parameter as 1 to get full gregorian week day name or 2 for the abbreviated name.
e.g. jddayofweek(2, 2); #returns Wed
Note that for this function, numbers start at Monday. So Monday=0, Tuesday=1, ...
Create an array to map numeric DOWs to text DOWs.
$dowMap = array('Sun', 'Mon', 'Tue', 'Wed', 'Thu', 'Fri', 'Sat');
If you need locale support, load the dow of some random date (epoch (0) would be a good date for example) and then for the next 6 days and build the dow map dynamically.
To get Sunday to Saturday from numeric day of the week 0 to 6:
//For example, our target numeric day is 0 (Sunday):
$numericDay = 0; //assuming current date('w')==0 and date('D')=='Sun';
Solution-1: Using PHP's built-in function jddayofweek() which starts from Monday
whereas date('w')
starts from Sunday
:
jddayofweek($numericDay-1, 1); //returns 'Sun', here decreasing by '-1' is important(!)
//jddayofweek(0, 1); //returns 'Mon';
//jddayofweek(0, 2); //returns 'Monday';
Solution-2: Using a trick(!):
date('D', strtotime("Sunday +{$numericDay} days")); //returns 'Sun';
//date('l', strtotime("Sunday +{$numericDay} days")); //returns 'Sunday';
function getDay(){
$dowMap = array('Sunday', 'Monday', 'Tuesday', 'Wednesday', 'Thursday', 'Friday', 'Saturday');
$dow_numeric = date('w');
return $dowMap[$dow_numeric];
}
If you need locale support you can use a bit improved function of Hamishs answer:
Example using german weekdays:
setlocale(LC_TIME, 'de_DE');
$dow_numeric = 3;
$dow_text = strftime('%A', strtotime("Sunday +{$dow_numeric} days"));
http://php.net/strftime
If $dow_numeric
start on 0
(0
= Monday) you can just change Sunday
to Monday
or
add $dow_numeric += 1
This should work:
$dow_numeric = 3;
$last_sunday = strtotime('last Sunday');
$dow_text = date('D', strtotime('+'.$dow_numeric.' day', $last_sunday));
For an object oriented approach you can use DateTime('Sunday')::add()
with a DateInterval
of "PxD"
When using the standard Numeric representation of the day of the week DateTime::format('w')
as 0-6
for Sun-Sat or ISO-8601 numeric representation of the day of the week DateTime::format('N')
as 1-7
for Mon-Sun.
https://3v4l.org/3uthm
$weekday = (new DateTime('Sunday'))
->add(new DateInterval('P' . $dow . 'D'));
The ISO-8601 representation works as expected since it uses Sunday + 7 days (Sunday)
, resulting in Sunday + 1 day (Monday)
and Sunday + 6 days (Saturday)
.
Alternatively replace Sunday for Monday and use $dowISO - 1
https://3v4l.org/5uLOL
$weekdayISO = (new DateTime('Monday'))
->add(new DateInterval('P' . ($dowISO - 1) . 'D'));
DatePeriod Example
https://3v4l.org/uG9NT
$sunday = new DateTimeImmutable('Sunday');
$monday = new DateTimeImmutable('Monday');
foreach (new DatePeriod($sunday, new DateInterval('P1D'), 6) as $date) {
$dow = $date->format('w');
$weekday = $sunday->add(new DateInterval('P' . $dow . 'D'));
$dowISO = $date->format('N');
$weekdayISOM = $monday->add(new DateInterval('P' . ($dowISO - 1) . 'D'));
$weekdayISOS = $sunday->add(new DateInterval('P' . $dowISO . 'D'));
printf("STD: %s = %s\nISOM: %s = %s\nISOS: %s = %s\n\n",
$dow, $weekday->format('l'),
$dowISO, $weekdayISOM->format('l'),
$dowISO, $weekdayISOS->format('l')
);
}
Results
STD: 0 = Sunday
ISOM: 7 = Sunday
ISOS: 7 = Sunday
STD: 1 = Monday
ISOM: 1 = Monday
ISOS: 1 = Monday
STD: 2 = Tuesday
ISOM: 2 = Tuesday
ISOS: 2 = Tuesday
STD: 3 = Wednesday
ISOM: 3 = Wednesday
ISOS: 3 = Wednesday
STD: 4 = Thursday
ISOM: 4 = Thursday
ISOS: 4 = Thursday
STD: 5 = Friday
ISOM: 5 = Friday
ISOS: 5 = Friday
STD: 6 = Saturday
ISOM: 6 = Saturday
ISOS: 6 = Saturday
