jsonSerialize()

Implementation of JsonSerializable::jsonSerialize()

public jsonSerialize() : array<string|int, mixed>

Prepares the object data for JSON serialization. Returns all object data as an array, with special handling for nested DataObject instances:

  • If a nested DataObject has a custom jsonSerialize() implementation, it's preserved as-is
  • If a nested DataObject has a custom toJson() method, it's converted to JSON string
  • If a nested DataObject uses only the base implementations, it's excluded from output

This prevents infinite recursion and circular references when serializing object hierarchies.

#[Override]
Return values
array<string|int, mixed>

normalizeNumber()

public normalizeNumber(string $value) : float|false
Parameters
$value : string
Return values
float|false

nowUtc()

Current UTC datetime as a 'Y-m-d H:i:s' string, suitable for DB columns.

public static nowUtc() : string

The "Utc" suffix is intentional: the whole codebase stores timestamps in UTC, and the method name makes that invariant visible at every call site — no need to check the docblock to know which timezone the returned string is in. Uses gmdate() internally, so the result is UTC regardless of PHP's default timezone.

If you need "now" in the store's timezone (for computation or display), call $locale->utcToStore() with no arguments — it returns a DateTime you can format however you want. Do NOT format this method's return value as if it were store-local; it isn't.

No companion nowInStoreTimezone() / nowStore() method exists, and that's deliberate:

  • A store-local datetime string in a DB column is ambiguous (same string, different instants across stores) and would violate the "DB is always UTC" invariant this API relies on.
  • For computation or display you want a DateTime object, not a string, so you can do arithmetic or pass it to a locale-aware formatter — utcToStore() already returns that. A nowStore() string method would invite exactly the bug class the UTC-only DB convention is meant to prevent, so the API forces you to reach for utcToStore() instead.

string

storeDate()

Create DateTime object with date converted to store timezone and store Locale

public storeDate([null|string|bool|int|Mage_Core_Model_Store $store = null ][, string|int|DateTime|DateTimeImmutable|null $date = null ][, bool $includeTime = false ][, string|null $format = null ]) : DateTime|string|null

since 26.5 Use utcToStore() instead. Callers should format the result themselves.

Parameters
$store : null|string|bool|int|Mage_Core_Model_Store = null

Information about store

$date : string|int|DateTime|DateTimeImmutable|null = null

date in UTC

$includeTime : bool = false

flag for including time to date

$format : string|null = null

Format for date parsing/output:

  • null: Use locale default format (returns DateTime)
  • 'html5': Return HTML5 native input format (returns string):
    • type="date": YYYY-MM-DD (e.g., "2024-12-25")
    • type="datetime-local": YYYY-MM-DDTHH:mm (e.g., "2024-12-25T14:30")
  • PHP format strings: 'Y-m-d H:i:s', etc. (returns DateTime)

utcToStore()
Return values
DateTime|string|null

storeTimeStamp()

Get store timestamp

public storeTimeStamp([mixed $store = null ]) : int

since 26.5 Use utcToStore($store) for store-local dates, or time() for real timestamps

Timestamp will be built with store timezone settings

Parameters
$store : mixed = null

utcToStore()
Return values
int

storeToUtc()

Convert a store-timezone date to UTC.

public storeToUtc([null|string|bool|int|Mage_Core_Model_Store $store = null ][, string|int|DateTime|DateTimeImmutable|null $date = null ]) : DateTimeImmutable

Always returns a DateTimeImmutable object with UTC timezone set. Use PHP's DateTimeImmutable::format() for machine-readable output (e.g. $result->format('Y-m-d H:i:s')). For locale-aware display formatting, use Mage::helper('core')->formatDate() instead.

Note: if $date is a DateTime/DateTimeImmutable, its existing timezone is preserved as the source timezone (i.e. setTimezone converts from the object's current TZ, not necessarily the store's timezone). For correct results, pass DateTime objects that are already in store TZ.

Parameters
$store : null|string|bool|int|Mage_Core_Model_Store = null

Store (null = current store)

$date : string|int|DateTime|DateTimeImmutable|null = null

Date in store timezone (null or 'now' = current time)

Return values
DateTimeImmutable

toArray()

Public wrapper for __toArray

public toArray([array<string|int, mixed> $arrAttributes = [] ]) : array<string|int, mixed>
Parameters
$arrAttributes : array<string|int, mixed> = []
Return values
array<string|int, mixed>

todayUtc()

Current UTC date (no time) as a 'Y-m-d' string, suitable for date-only DB columns.

public static todayUtc() : string

Same rationale as nowUtc() — the "Utc" suffix encodes the timezone at the call site, and the deliberate absence of a todayInStoreTimezone() / todayStore() counterpart prevents store-local date strings from creeping into DB columns. For "today" in the store's timezone, use $locale->utcToStore()->format('Y-m-d').

Return values
string

toJson()

Public wrapper for __toJson

public toJson([array<string|int, mixed> $arrAttributes = [] ]) : string
Parameters
$arrAttributes : array<string|int, mixed> = []

Parameters
$format : string = ''
Return values
string

Parameters
$arrAttributes : array<string|int, mixed> = []
$rootName : string = 'item'
$addOpenTag : bool = false
$addCdata : bool = true
Return values

unsetData()

Unset data from the object.

public unsetData([string $key = null ]) : $this

$key can be a string only. Array will be ignored.

Parameters
$key : string = null
Return values
$this

unsetOldData()

Unset old fields data from the object.

public unsetOldData([string $key = null ]) : $this

$key can be a string only. Array will be ignored.

Parameters
$key : string = null
Return values
$this

utcDate()

Create DateTime object with date converted from store's timezone to UTC time zone. Date can be passed in format of store's locale or in format which was passed as parameter.

public utcDate(mixed $store[, string|int|DateTime|DateTimeImmutable|null $date = null ][, bool $includeTime = false ][, null|string $format = null ]) : DateTime|string|null

since 26.5 Use storeToUtc() instead. Callers should format the result themselves.

Parameters
$store : mixed

Information about store

$date : string|int|DateTime|DateTimeImmutable|null = null

date in store's timezone

$includeTime : bool = false

flag for including time to date

$format : null|string = null

Format for date parsing/output:

  • null: Use locale default format (returns DateTime)
  • 'html5': Parse HTML5 native input format (returns string):
    • Accepts: YYYY-MM-DD (from type="date") or YYYY-MM-DDTHH:mm (from type="datetime-local")
    • Returns: YYYY-MM-DD HH:mm:ss (MySQL datetime format)
  • PHP format strings: 'Y-m-d H:i:s', etc. (returns DateTime)
