i know how carbon works but i want to create custom carbon function. carbon have a function called diffForHumans()
, i want to do some modifications to that function and call that function diffForHumansCustom()
. i can achieve my goal if i edit the Carbon.php
vendor file but the modification will be gone after composer update
. any suggestion or code help is appreciated.
public function diffForHumans(Carbon $other = null, $absolute = false)
{
$isNow = $other === null;
if ($isNow) {
$other = static::now($this->tz);
}
$diffInterval = $this->diff($other);
switch (true) {
case ($diffInterval->y > 0):
$unit = 'year';
$delta = $diffInterval->y;
break;
case ($diffInterval->m > 0):
$unit = 'month';
$delta = $diffInterval->m;
break;
case ($diffInterval->d > 0):
$unit = 'day';
$delta = $diffInterval->d;
if ($delta >= self::DAYS_PER_WEEK) {
$unit = 'week';
$delta = floor($delta / self::DAYS_PER_WEEK);
}
break;
case ($diffInterval->h > 0):
$unit = 'hour';
$delta = $diffInterval->h;
break;
case ($diffInterval->i > 0):
$unit = 'minute';
$delta = $diffInterval->i;
break;
default:
$delta = $diffInterval->s;
$unit = 'second';
break;
}
if ($delta == 0) {
$delta = 1;
}
$txt = $delta . ' ' . $unit;
$txt .= $delta == 1 ? '' : 's';
if ($absolute) {
return $txt;
}
$isFuture = $diffInterval->invert === 1;
if ($isNow) {
if ($isFuture) {
return $txt . ' from now';
}
return $txt . ' ago';
}

To anyone coming here in 2019, I have found that a neater solution for adding things like Carbon::macro
functions is use a Laravel ServiceProvider
1) Create your service provider with php artisan make:provider CarbonServiceProvider
CarbonServiceProvider
<?php
namespace App\Providers;
use Carbon\Carbon;
use Illuminate\Support\ServiceProvider;
class CarbonServiceProvider extends ServiceProvider
{
/**
* Register services.
*/
public function register()
{
}
/**
* Bootstrap services.
*/
public function boot()
{
Carbon::macro('easterDate', function ($year) {
return Carbon::createMidnightDate($year, 3, 21)->addDays(easter_days($year));
});
}
}
2) Register your service provider in config/app.php
app/config
<?php
return [
'providers' => [
...
/*
* Application Service Providers...
*/
App\Providers\AppServiceProvider::class,
App\Providers\AuthServiceProvider::class,
App\Providers\BroadcastServiceProvider::class,
App\Providers\EventServiceProvider::class,
App\Providers\RouteServiceProvider::class,
App\Providers\DatabaseServiceProvider::class,
App\Providers\CarbonServiceProvider::class,
...
],
];
3) You can now access your Macro's from anywhere in your application.
ExampleController
<?php
namespace App\Http\Controllers;
use Carbon\Carbon;
use Illuminate\Http\Request;
use App\Http\Controllers\Controller;
class ExampleController extends Controller
{
/**
* Show the form for creating a new resource.
*
* @return \Illuminate\Http\Response
*/
public function index(Request $request)
{
dd(Carbon::easterDate(2015));
}
}
In the example this should return
Carbon @1428192000 {#2663 ▼
date: 2015-04-05 00:00:00.0 UTC (+00:00)
}
