date
Converts an argument to a date to allow date comparison:
{% if date(user.created_at) < date('-2days') %}
{# do something #}
{% endif %}
The argument must be in one of PHP’s supported date and time formats.
You can pass a timezone as the second argument:
{% if date(user.created_at) < date('-2days', 'Europe/Paris') %}
{# do something #}
{% endif %}
If no argument is passed, the function returns the current date:
{% if date(user.created_at) < date() %}
{# always! #}
{% endif %}
Note
You can set the default timezone globally by calling setTimezone()
on
the core
extension instance:
$twig = new \Twig\Environment($loader);
$twig->getExtension('\Twig\Extension\CoreExtension')->setTimezone('Europe/Paris');
// before Twig 1.26
$twig->getExtension('core')->setTimezone('Europe/Paris');
