$createdTime = Carbon::parse($specialist->created_at)
->diff(Carbon::now())
->format('%y yr, %m mo and %d days');
This returns 0 yr, 0 mo and 8 days
. I want to return only 8 days
.
Or if 1 yr, 0 mo and 8 days
, return 1 yr and 8 days
Since diff()
returns a DateInterval
instance you could run conditional checks to get your expected result.
$createdTime = Carbon::parse($specialist->created_at)
->diff(Carbon::now());
$final_string = '';
$year = '';
$month = '';
$days = '';
if ($createdTime->y) {
$year = $createdTime->y . ' yr';
}
if ($createdTime->m) {
$month = ' '. $createdTime->m . ' mo';
}
if ($createdTime->d) {
$days = ' ' . $createdTime->d . ' days';
}
$final_string = trim($year . $month . $days);
There is a better solution rather than using diffForHumans()
and remove ago
with str_replace($time->diffForHumans(), ' ago')
.
I recommand using the CarbonInterval like this :
$now = Carbon::now();
$years = $specialist->created_at->diffInYears($now);
$months = $specialist->created_at->diffInDays($now->subYears($years));
$days = $specialist->created_at->diffInDays($now->subMonths($years));
// $hours = $specialist->created_at->diffInHours($now->subDays($days));
// $minutes = $specialist->created_at->diffInMinutes($with_duration->subHours($hours));
// $seconds = $specialist->created_at->diffInSeconds($with_duration->subMinutes($minutes));
return CarbonInterval::years($years)->months($months)->days($days)->forHumans();
//return CarbonInterval::years($years)->months($months)->days($days)->hours($hours)->minutes($minutes)->seconds($seconds)->forHumans();
