Local Timestamp in PHP : Indian Sample Code

Local Timestamp in PHP

Recently I was stuck with one of the assignments which required Local Indian Timestamp to be inserted into database and was not able to find anything better than this even after much googling.

I hope you find this useful and if there is a better way, Please let me know and I will update this post. I know there is a better way with PHP 5.3+ but this had to work on a lower version.
<?php
/*
* Function to turn a mysql datetime (YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS) into a unix timestamp
* @param str
*  The string to be formatted
*/

function convert_datetime($str) {

list($date, $time) = explode(‘ ‘, $str);
list($year, $month, $day) = explode(‘-’, $date);
list($hour, $minute, $second) = explode(‘:’, $time);

$timestamp = mktime($hour, $minute, $second, $month, $day, $year);

return $timestamp;
}

$time = time();
echo($time . “<hr/>”);
$timezone = new DateTimeZone(“Asia/Kolkata” );
$date = new DateTime();
$date->setTimezone($timezone );
echo convert_datetime($date->format(( ‘Y-m-j H:i:s’ )));

?>
