Set the default timezone in symfony

问题:

i want to know how can i set timezone for an entire project?

i'm using symfony 1.4 with doctrine and i have a problem with datetime saving.
whenever i save a record, it's time is not correct and i know that's because of timezone.

i know i can use date_default_timezone_set() function to set default timezone, but i have to do it in every single action that i'm using date and it's not right.

is there an easier way to do it? i think doctrine should have something to set it automatically but i don't know how.

回答1:

The symfony way is to use default_timezone in settings.yml. See this for more details.

For one, you may consider setting it in your php.ini. If you're on a shared server, that's not a viable option, but the common place to set project-global properties is the config/ProjectConfiguration.php, just after plugin setup.
