MongoDB\BSON\UTCDateTime
PHP Manual

MongoDB\BSON\UTCDateTime::__construct

Construct a new UTCDateTime

Description

final public MongoDB\BSON\UTCDateTime::__construct(intfloatstringMongoDB\BSON\Int64DateTimeInterfacenull $milliseconds = null)

Parameters

milliseconds (intfloatstringDateTimeInterfacenull)

Number of milliseconds since the Unix epoch (Jan 1, 1970). Negative values represent dates before 1970. This value may be provided as a 64-bit int. For compatibility on 32-bit systems, this parameter may also be provided as a MongoDB\BSON\Int64.

If the argument is a DateTimeInterface, the number of milliseconds since the Unix epoch will be derived from that value.

If this argument is null, the current time will be used by default.

Errors/Exceptions

  • Throws MongoDB\Driver\Exception\InvalidArgumentException on argument parsing errors.

Changelog

Version Description
PECL mongodb 1.20.0

The milliseconds argument now accepts a MongoDB\BSON\Int64 object (for compatibility on 32-bit platforms). Specifying a string or float is deprecated.

PECL mongodb 1.2.0

The milliseconds argument is optional and defaults to null (i.e. current time). The argument also accepts a DateTimeInterface, which may be used to derive the number of milliseconds since the Unix epoch. Previously, only int, float, and string types were accepted.

Examples

Example #1 MongoDB\BSON\UTCDateTime::__construct example

<?php

var_dump(new MongoDB\BSON\UTCDateTime);

var_dump(new MongoDB\BSON\UTCDateTime(new DateTime));

var_dump(new MongoDB\BSON\UTCDateTime(1416445411987));

?>

The above example will output something similar to:

object(MongoDB\BSON\UTCDateTime)#1 (1) {
  ["milliseconds"]=>
  string(13) "1484852905560"
}
object(MongoDB\BSON\UTCDateTime)#1 (1) {
  ["milliseconds"]=>
  string(13) "1484852905560"
}
object(MongoDB\BSON\UTCDateTime)#1 (1) {
  ["milliseconds"]=>
  string(13) "1416445411987"
}
