Laravel error: Call to a member function format() on string

Question

I am using Laravel 5.3.

There is a field expired_at in table articles：

public function store(Request $re         


        

Answer 1

I think this is the way. It will not throw error

{{ Carbon\Carbon::parse($article->expired_at)->format('Y-m-d') }}

Answer 2

In your Article class add following property:

/**
 * The attributes that should be mutated to dates.
 *
 * @var array
 */
protected $dates = ['expired_at'];

Answer 3

If you use DB:: to retrieve complex data, you can´t use mutators. In this situation I use this:

{{ date('m-Y', strtotime($hora->Fecha)) }}

Or

{{ date('m-Y', strtotime($hora ?? ''->Fecha)) }}

Where "Fecha" is a datetime value.
