How to use the Intl Extension Twig for date

By Houssem on 25 September 2013 in Twig

First you should install the php5-intl :

sudo apt-get install php5-intl

1	sudo apt-get install php5-intl

Then add the code below in your “app/config/config.yml” file :

services:
    twig.extension.intl:
        class: Twig_Extensions_Extension_Intl
        tags:
            - { name: twig.extension }

services:

twig.extension.intl:

class: Twig_Extensions_Extension_Intl

tags:

- { name: twig.extension }

Finaly in you twig file you can use the localizeddate filter to format dates into a localized string representating the date :

{{ post.published_at|localizeddate('medium', 'none', locale) }}

1	{{ post.published_at\|localizeddate('medium', 'none', locale) }}
