Laravel Time Helpers

This package provides two simple helpers to deal with time.

Installation

To install this package, use this command:

composer require mateusjunges/laravel-time-helpers

The past function

The past function, as the time suggests, returns a time in the past.

You can use it and chain with the following methods:

• past(10)->seconds(): Returns a Carbon instance 10 seconds in the past
• past(10)->minutes(): Returns a Carbon instance 10 minutes in the past
• past(10)->hours(): Returns a Carbon instance 10 hours in the past
• past(10)->weeks(): Returns a Carbon instance 10 weeks in the past
• past(10)->weekDays(): Returns a Carbon instance 10 week days in the past
• past(10)->months(): Returns a Carbon instance 10 months in the past
• past(10)->years(): Returns a Carbon instance 10 years in the past
• past(10)->centuries(): Returns a Carbon instance 10 centuries in the past

The in function

The in function can be used to get a Carbon instance in the future.

You can chain it with the exact same methods used in the past function:

• in(10)->seconds(): Returns a Carbon instance 10 seconds in the future
• in(10)->minutes(): Returns a Carbon instance 10 minutes in the future
• in(10)->hours(): Returns a Carbon instance 10 hours in the future
• in(10)->weeks(): Returns a Carbon instance 10 weeks in the future
• in(10)->weekDays(): Returns a Carbon instance 10 week days in the future
• in(10)->months(): Returns a Carbon instance 10 months in the future
• in(10)->years(): Returns a Carbon instance 10 years in the future
• in(10)->centuries(): Returns a Carbon instance 10 centuries in the future

All methods returns a Carbon\Carbon instance, which means you will still be able to use all the Carbon methods.
