Year
The Year class is an extension of Range to represent a year. It can be created from a DateTime instance:
$date = Date::now();
$year = new Year($date);
Or using its own methods:
$year = Year::now();
$year = Year::fromInt(2012);
The range iterator also returns a year object:
$start = Date::now();
$end = $start->addYears(2);
$range = new Range($start, $end);
foreach ($range->years() as $year) {
echo $year->string("Y") . "\n";
}
And every DateTime object has a getYear() method to get the year for that date:
$date = Date::now()->addYears(10);
$year = $date->getYear();
Adjusting
As with the standard dates library objects, this range can also have some adjustments applied:
$year = Year::now();
$nextYear = $year->addYears(1);
$lastYear = $year->subYears(1);
