Installation

• composer require railt/carbon-extension
• Add extension to your application:

$app = new Railt\Foundation\Application();

$app->extend(Railt\CarbonExtension\Extension::class); // Here

Laravel

In that case, if you use Laravel Service Provider this extension can be added as follows:

Open the railt.php configuration file and add:

'extensions' => [
    // ...
    \Railt\CarbonExtension\Extension::class, // Here
]

Symfony

In that case, if you use Symfony Bundle this extension can be added as follows:

Open the config.yml configuration file and add:

railt:
    extensions:
        - Railt\CarbonExtension\Extension # Here

Output

You can use it within your types. After you add type Carbon, two optional arguments appear in the field which is defined by this type.

Those. Client will see the following scheme:

# Definition
type YourExampleType {
    id: ID!
    some: String!
    createdAt: Carbon!
}

# What the client will see
type YourExampleType {
    id: ID!
    some: String!
    createdAt(
        """
        An argument that provides a format of the given value that 
        are contained in a CarbonFormat enumeration type.
        """
        format: CarbonFormat = RFC3339
    ): Carbon!
}

In order to correctly return data - just pass the date type.

Note: The "createdAt" field should provide datetime compatible type, like:

1. DateTime object: http://php.net/manual/en/class.datetime.php
2. Carbon object: https://carbon.nesbot.com/docs/
3. String datetime format
4. Integer timestamp

public function resolver(): array
{
    return [
        'id'        => 42,
        'some'      => 'Example',
        'createdAt' => '2018-04-28T17:55:27+00:00', // Yesterday
    ];
}

The request might look like this:

{
    example {
        id
        some
        a: createdAt(format: COOKIE)
        b: createdAt(format: HUMAN_READABLE)
    }
}

The response is as follows:

{
    "example": {
        "id": 42,
        "some": "Example",
        "createdAt": "Saturday, 28-Apr-2018 17:55:27 GMT+0000",
        "a": "Saturday, 28-Apr-2018 17:55:27 GMT+0000",
        "b": "4 months ago"
    }
}

Output formats

The return value can correspond to one of the valid formats defined in the CarbonFormat enumeration. In order to specify what date format in the response you want to see - it should be passed as the value of the format argument.

{
    example {
        createdAt(format: COOKIE) 
        # createdAt field date will return in the COOKIE format.
    }
}
