The date formatted can be translated into any language, and may are supported out of the box.
INSTALLATION via Composer
composer require knplabs/knp-time-bundle
CONFIGURATION

<?php
// app/AppKernel.php
public function registerBundles()
{
$bundles = array(
// ...
new Knp\Bundle\TimeBundle\KnpTimeBundle(),
);
// ...
}
Enable the translation component if you haven't already done it:
# app/config/config.yml
framework:
# ...
translator: { fallback: '%locale%' } # uncomment this line if you see this line commented
USAGE
In PHP!
<?php
// Use the helper with Php
