dates

Hi,

I am trying to read and update the dates which are Carbon instances.

For reading,
I convert the Carbon instance to array when I read the date value. But I don't think this is the right way of doing it. Also, the PACE system only stores the date value but when I look at the carbon instance value in the API, the 'date' is displaying as date time value.

e.g. +"date": "2015-07-31 04:00:00.000000"
+"timezone_type": 3
+"timezone": "UTC"

For updating,
If I update the value with just a date ('Y-m-d'), would it cause an issue? Also, how do I update these date values?

Thanks,
Ryan

I discovered the way for reading the carbon ($job->promiseDate->toDateString()) but I haven't found the way to update the carbon date...

See the Carbon documentation. It extends PHP's built-in DateTime class.

Here are two examples which do the same thing:

$job->promiseDate = new Carbon('2017-08-31');

$job->promiseDate = Carbon::createFromDate(2017, 8, 31);
