strptime

(PHP 5 >= 5.1.0, PHP 7, PHP 8)

strptime Analyse une date générée par strftime()

Avertissement

Cette fonction est OBSOLÈTE à partir de PHP 8.1.0. Dépendre de cette fonction est fortement déconseillé.

Description

strptime(string $timestamp, string $format): array|false

strptime() retourne un tableau après avoir analysé timestamp, ou false en cas d'erreur.

Les noms des mois et jours de la semaine dépendent de la configuration locale, choisie avec setlocale() (LC_TIME).

Liste de paramètres

timestamp (chaîne de caractères)

La chaîne à analyser (e.g. retournée par strftime())

format (chaîne de caractères)

Le format utilisé par timestamp (e.g. le même que celui qui a été utilisé par strftime()).

Pour plus d'informations sur les spécificateurs de formats, voyez la fonction strftime().

Valeurs de retour

Retourne un tableau ou false si une erreur survient.

Les paramètres suivants sont retournés dans le tableau
Paramètres Description
"tm_sec" Secondes après la minute (0-61)
"tm_min" Minutes après l'heure (0-59)
"tm_hour" Heure depuis minuit (0-23)
"tm_mday" Jour du mois (1-31)
"tm_mon" Mois depuis janvier (0-11)
"tm_year" Années depuis 1900
"tm_wday" Jours depuis dimanche (0-6)
"tm_yday" Jours depuis le 1er janvier (0-365)
"unparsed" La partie de timestamp qui n'a pas été reconnue par l'analyseur avec le format spécifié.

Historique

Version Description
8.1.0 Cette fonction a été rendue obsolète. Utiliser date_parse_from_format() à la place (pour de l'analyse indépendant à la locale), ou IntlDateFormatter::parse() (pour de l'analyse dépendant à la locale)

Exemples

Exemple #1 Exemple avec strptime()

<?php
$format
= '%d/%m/%Y %H:%M:%S';
$strf = strftime($format);

echo
"$strf\n";

print_r(strptime($strf, $format));
?>

Résultat de l'exemple ci-dessus est similaire à :

03/10/2004 15:54:19

Array
(
    [tm_sec] => 19
    [tm_min] => 54
    [tm_hour] => 15
    [tm_mday] => 3
    [tm_mon] => 9
    [tm_year] => 104
    [tm_wday] => 0
    [tm_yday] => 276
    [unparsed] =>
)

Notes

Note: Cette fonction n'est pas implémentée sur les plates-formes Windows.

Note:

En interne, cette fonction appelle la fonction strptime() fournie par la bibliothèque système C. Cette fonction a des comportements bien différents suivants les systèmes d'exploitation. L'utilisation de la fonction date_parse_from_format(), qui elle, ne souffre pas de ces défauts, est recommandée.

Note:

"tm_sec" inclut toutes les secondes intercalaires (actuellement 2 par an). Pour plus d'informations sur les secondes intercalaires, reportez-vous à l'» article sur Wikipedia les concernant.

If strptime() fails to match all of the format string and therefore an error occurred the function returns NULL.

emanuil's comment / mktime() example is wrong, in that his mktime() line should have $ts['tm_mon'] + 1 because strptime() returns the months zero-based, while mktime() expects it one-based.

If you need strptime but are restricted to a php version which does not support it (windows or before PHP 5), note that MySQL since Version 4.1.1 offers (almost?) the same functionality with the STR_TO_DATE function.

See http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/4.1/en/date-and-time-functions.html

It says "Parse a time/date generated with strftime()" but that's not entirely correct -- While strptime("2006131", "%Y%W%u") works as expected, strptime("2006131", "%G%V%u") returns false instead of reversing the equivalent - and unambiguous - strftime() usage.  I suspect that's because glibc doesn't support that.  Anyway, this docu page fails to mention that apparently not all format components supported by strftime() can be used with strptime().

the example (or the function) has an inconsistancy with other PHP functions.

the example returns 104 for the year 2004

while in the strftime function the 2 digit year is 70-100 for 1970-2000
and 1-69 for 2001-2069

On some systems, particularly those of BSD lineage (such as FreeBSD and MacOS X), the tm_wday and tm_yday fields are only initialized if requested explicitly (that is, if the %a/%A/%u/%w and %j formats are specified), while others such as Linux and Solaris will calculate them automatically.

Be careful: the output of strptime() ( http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.strptime.php ) cannot always be used with mktime() ( http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.mktime.php )!

This is not because of what platform you're using or what format strings glibc supports. This is simply because strptime returns years SINCE 1900 (as documented above) and mktime expects a year in the format returned by date('Y') - which is the full 4 digits.

Therefore, if you parse a date with strptime and want to give it to mktime, you have to pass in ($parsed_time['tm_year'] + 1900) as the year parameter to mktime(), not just $parsed_time['tm_year'].

This issue arose when I had a date like: 19/06/2012 12:03:34. strtotime() doesn't parse this particular format, so I needed custom parsing. So I ended up with:
1. $ts = $service->getNeededDateTime();
2. $ts = strptime($ts, '%d/%m/%Y %H:%M:%S');
3. $ts = mktime($ts['tm_hour'], $ts['tm_min'], $ts['tm_sec'],
      $ts['tm_mon'], $ts['tm_mday'], ($ts['tm_year'] + 1900));

If you want to parse a date or a /time in windows env, i re-write strptime function for windows.

I use the same param and i return the same think that the original one.
I use sscanf to parde the string.
Only some format can be parsed (%S, %M, %H, %d, %m, %Y)

See this page (because the function is too big for this notes)
http://sauron.lionel.free.fr/?page=php_lib_strptime

The result of strptime() is not affected by the current timezone setting, even though strftime() is. Tested in PHP 5.1.6.

For Windows user! It's rather the same as strptime!
It uses the previous function: but call strToTime($date, $format) to strToDate($date, $format) because this name is forgiven!

<?php
function strToDateTime($date, $format) {
    if(!(
$date = strToDate($date, $format))) return;
   
$dateTime = array('sec' => 0, 'min' => 0, 'hour' => 0, 'day' => 0, 'mon' => 0, 'year' => 0, 'timestamp' => 0);
    foreach(
$date as $key => $val) {
        switch(
$key) {
            case
'd':
            case
'j': $dateTime['day'] = intval($val); break;
            case
'D': $dateTime['day'] = intval(date('j', $val)); break;
           
            case
'm':
            case
'n': $dateTime['mon'] = intval($val); break;
            case
'M': $dateTime['mon'] = intval(date('n', $val)); break;
           
            case
'Y': $dateTime['year'] = intval($val); break;
