Basic usage

SystemClock

Create a SystemClock object and simply use it! Object that will return the current time based on the given timezone

<?php

use E7\Clock\SystemClock;

$clock = new SystemClock();
$now = $clock->now();

It's also possible to set the timezone.

<?php

use DateTimeZone;
use E7\Clock\SystemClock;

$timezone = new DateTimeZone('Europe/Berlin');
$clock = new SystemClock(timezone);
$now = $clock->now();

FrozenClock

The FrozenClock simplfies testing and it's also esy to use. The FrozenClock object always returns a fixed time object.

<?php

use DateTimeImmutable;
use E7\Clock\FrozenClock;

$now = new DateTimeImmutable();
$clock = new FrozenClock($now);
$now = $clock->now();
