EasyAdmin Date Field
This field is used to represent the date part of a value that stores a PHP
DateTimeInterface value (e.g. DateTime, DateTimeImmutable, etc.)
In form pages (edit and new) it looks like this:
Basic Information
- PHP Class:
EasyCorp\Bundle \EasyAdminBundle \Field \DateField - Doctrine DBAL Type used to store this value:
dateordate_immutable - Symfony Form Type used to render the field: DateType
Rendered as:
1
<input type="date"> ... </select>
Options
renderAsChoice
By default, in form pages (edit and new) the field is rendered as an
HTML5 input field. This is done because modern browsers display an advanced
date picker for these fields, making them easier to use.
If you prefer to display the date as 3 separate <select> elements to pick
the day, month and year separately, use this option:
1
yield DateField::new('...')->renderAsChoice();Note
Setting this option is equivalent to setting widget = choice and
html5 = true options in the underlying DateType Symfony field.
renderAsNativeWidget
By default, in form pages (edit and new) the field is rendered as an
HTML5 input field. This is done because modern browsers display an advanced
date picker for these fields, making them easier to use.
This option allows you to programmatically enable/disable this behavior (e.g.
based on the result of some expression). Setting it to false is equivalent
to calling renderAsChoice():
1
yield DateField::new('...')->renderAsNativeWidget(false);Note
Setting this option is equivalent to setting widget = single_text and
html5 = true options in the underlying DateType Symfony field.
renderAsText
By default, in form pages (edit and new) the field is rendered as an
HTML5 input field. This is done because modern browsers display an advanced
date picker for these fields, making them easier to use.
If you prefer to display the date as a single <input type="text"> element,
use this option:
1
yield DateField::new('...')->renderAsText();Note
Setting this option is equivalent to setting widget = single_text and
html5 = false options in the underlying DateType Symfony field.
setFormat
By default, in read-only pages (index and detail) dates are displayed in
the format defined by the setDateFormat() CRUD option.
Use this option to override that default formatting:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7
// these are the predefined formats: 'short', 'medium', 'long', 'full'
yield DateField::new('...')->setFormat('long');
// predefined formats are available as constants too
use EasyCorp\Bundle\EasyAdminBundle\Field\DateTimeField;
yield DateField::new('...')->setFormat(DateTimeField::FORMAT_LONG);In addition to predefined formats, you can configure your own format by passing a valid ICU Datetime Pattern to this function:
1 2
yield DateField::new('...')->setFormat('yyyy.MM.dd G');
yield DateField::new('...')->setFormat('EEE, MMM d, \'\'yy');setTimezone
By default, in read-only pages (index and detail) dates are displayed
using the timezone defined by the setTimezone() CRUD option.
Use this option to override that default timezone (the argument must be any of
the valid PHP timezone IDs):
1
yield DateField::new('...')->setTimezone('Africa/Malabo');
