php - set value yiibooster datePickerGroup -

my code:

<?php echo $form->datepickergroup(             $model,             'to_date',             array(                 'widgetoptions' => array(                     'options' => array(                         'language' => 'en',                         'format' => 'yyyy-mm-dd',                     ),                 ),                 'wrapperhtmloptions' => array(                     'class' => 'col-sm-5',                 ),                 'hint' => 'click inside! super cool date field.',                 'prepend' => '<i class="glyphicon glyphicon-calendar"></i>'             )         ); ?> 

my to_date timestamp want befor view value convert value by: date("y-m-d",$model->to_date)

accessor methods in model can serve well. if yii1 see accessor methods in model class, call accessors instead of returning property directly.

define getter , setter methods in model , convert timestamp \date(which needed cgridview) , vice-versa. like:

// in model class instantiated $model /** * @return \datetime */ public function getto_date(){     $date = new datetime();     $date->settimestamp($this->to_date);     return $date; }  /** * @param \datetime $to_date * @return $this */ public function setto_date(\datetime $to_date){     $this->to_date = strtotime($to_date);     return $this; } 

the rest of code cgridview remain intact , can use is.
