Automatic human timestamp properties in Laravel

This package provides a trait you can add to an Eloquent model that will automatically create human-readable timestamp diffs using Carbon.

Version Compatibility

Installation

To install the package run:

composer require chrisdicarlo/eloquent-human-timestamps

Setup

Add the ChrisDiCarlo\EloquentHumanTimestamps\HumanTimestamps trait to a model that has timestamp columns, e.g.:

use ChrisDiCarlo\EloquentHumanTimestamps\HumanTimestamps;
class Foobar
{
    use HumanTimestamps;
   ...
}

Usage

To get the human-readable attribute, simply retrieve the timestamp normally but append _for_humans to the name, e.g. created_at_for_humans, updated_at_for_humans.
