Year Type

YearType

The YearType can be used to represent a year in the database as an integer value.

Apart from string form input, it can also accept the default datetime control array form.

Setup:

• Map the type in your bootstrap:

  use Cake\Database\Type;
  
  Type::map('year', 'Shim\Database\Type\YearType');

• Use it in a manual FormHelper control:

  echo $this->Form->control('published', ['type' => 'year']);
