Just a widget wrapper for Keith Wood's JQuery Countdown extension. Localization doesn't work yet.
Requirements ¶
- Yii 1.1 or above (might work for Yii 1.0 but haven't really tested there)
- JQuery core script enabled
Usage ¶
$seconds_of_date is equal to the Unix timestamp.
Example 1: For count down to a date, put this in the view:
$this->widget('ext.kwcountdown.KWCountdown', array('until_seconds' => $seconds_of_date));
Example 2: For count down from a date, put this in the view:
$this->widget('ext.kwcountdown.KWCountdown', array('since_seconds' => $seconds_of_date));
Example 3: With other display options such as different layout. See the link to Keith Wood's site for details about other options.
$this->widget('ext.kwcountdown.KWCountdown', array('until_seconds' => $seconds_of_date, 'options' => array('layout' => 'Till the new year: <b>{dn} {dl} {hnn}{sep}{mnn}{sep}{snn}</b>' )));
great work ; minor modifying needed .
because some one don't always put extension under the extensions dir . so do a little modifying :
public function init() { $path = Yii::app()->getAssetManager()->publish( Yii::getPathOfAlias('ext.kwcountdown.src', -1, false));to:
public function init() { $path = Yii::app()->getAssetManager()->publish( dirname(__FILE__).DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR .'src',-1,YII_DEBUG );Problem with implementation
What will be the format and value of $seconds_of_date.
$this->widget('ext.kwcountdown.KWCountdown', array('until_seconds' => $seconds_of_date));Want Multiple Countdown Timers?
Where you implement the countdown timer, be sure to set a unique _elementid:
<?php $this->widget('ext.kwcountdown.KWCountdown', array( 'element_id'=>'countdown_'.$counter, 'until_seconds'=>$until_seconds, )); ?>Next, on line #87 of KWCountdown.php, change this:
$cs->registerScript('count-down-script', $script);to this:
$cs->registerScript('count-down-script_'.$this->element_id, $script);mysql datetime to UNIX timestamp?
How can I convert mysql datetime to UNIX timestamp ?
My problem is: <br/>
but kwcountdown doesn't count down.
if i use strtotime(). it only convert date (not time) to timestamp.
$this->widget('ext.kwcountdown.KWCountdown', array( 'until_seconds' => strtotime($data->endDate), 'element_id' => 'countdown' . $data->id, ));i change my code to:
$this->widget('ext.kwcountdown.KWCountdown', array( 'until_seconds' => $mAuction->convertDatetimeToTimestamp($data->endDate), 'element_id' => 'countdown' . $data->id, ));but it also doesn't work.
function convertDatetimeToTimestamp:
function convertDatetimeToTimestamp($str) { list($date, $time) = explode(' ', $str); list($year, $month, $day) = explode('-', $date); list($hour, $minute, $second) = explode(':', $time); $timestamp = mktime($hour, $minute, $second, 0, 0, 0); return $timestamp; }help me, please !!!
Would be nice to collaborate
This is a quite a nice wrapper, but it would be nice if we could collaborate in something like github so this extension could have more features in the future.
