use warnings; use strict; =head1 NAME Jifty::Filter::DateTime -- A Jifty::DBI filter to work with Jifty::DateTime objects =head1 SYNOPSIS # use it with Jifty::DBI::Filter::Date or J::D::F::DateTime column created => type is 'timestamp', filters are qw( Jifty::Filter::DateTime Jifty::DBI::Filter::DateTime), label is 'Created', is immutable; =head1 DESCRIPTION Jifty::Filter::DateTime promotes DateTime objects to Jifty::DateTime (or your application's DateTime subclass) objects on load. This has the side effect of setting their time zone based on the record's current user's preferred time zone, when available. This is intended to be combined with C or C, e.g. column created => type is 'timestamp', filters are qw( Jifty::Filter::DateTime Jifty::DBI::Filter::DateTime), label is 'Created', is immutable; =cut package Jifty::Filter::DateTime; use base qw(Jifty::DBI::Filter); =head2 decode If the value is a DateTime, replace it with a Jifty::DateTime (or your application's subclass) representing the same time, setting the time zone in the process. =cut sub decode { my $self = shift; my $value_ref = $self->value_ref; return unless ref($$value_ref) && $$value_ref->isa('DateTime'); # XXX There has to be a better way to do this my %args; for (qw(year month day hour minute second nanosecond formatter time_zone)) { $args{$_} = $$value_ref->$_ if(defined($$value_ref->$_)); } $args{input_time_zone} = delete $args{time_zone}; my $class = Jifty->app_class('DateTime'); $class = 'Jifty::DateTime' unless $class->can('new'); my $dt = $class->new(%args); $$value_ref = $dt; } =head1 SEE ALSO L, L, L =head1 LICENSE Jifty is Copyright 2005-2007 Best Practical Solutions, LLC.
