I am getting time in the following format as a response of an API call. How I can I convert it to Y-m-d H:i:s I used the following :
$time_other_format = '2013-10-29T08:34:01-0700';
$time = date("Y-m-d H:i:s",strtotime($time_other_format));
This is returning the time, but the time is changed and I think as per the timezone. I have records in DB which are inserted before the convesrion and so retain the original time and to compare it. How can I convert it like that . I mean I need to get the time as 08:34:01 after converting it

Example of Timestamp to Date in PHP We are converting timestamp to date. echo date( "Y-m-d H:i:s" , 1620790172 ); echo " , "; echo date( "d-m-Y H:i:s" , 1620790172 );
Answer: Use the PHP date() Function You can simply use the PHP date() function to get the current data and time in various format, for example, date('d-m-y h:i:s') , date('d/m/y H:i:s') , and so on.
php $date=strtotime("tomorrow"); echo date("Y-m-d h:i:sa", $date) . "<br>"; $date=strtotime("next Sunday"); echo date("Y-m-d h:i:sa", $date) . "<br>"; $date=strtotime("+3 Months"); echo date("Y-m-d h:i:sa", $date) .
$time_other_format = '2013-10-29T08:34:01-0700';
$dt = new DateTime($time_other_format);
echo $dt->format('Y-m-d H:i:s');
This will echo,
2013-10-29 08:34:01
The DateTime class in PHP is very powerful, and will recognise almost any format you throw at it. It's great for manipulation.
