Convert month number to name

Navigation
7

I need to convert the number of the month to the name of the same, but it has to be in Portuguese (and preferably without the need of substr )

I can do this, with the default language in English 

$monthNum  = 3;
$dateObj   = DateTime::createFromFormat('!m', $monthNum);
$monthName = $dateObj->format('F');
echo substr($monthName, 0, 3);
// output Mar

Is there a way to change the language type to pt-Br to use this function?

I do not want to create a array() containing all the months already abbreviated and in Portuguese. I want a solution in-built

Although there is already a response, it is noted that with respect to location, the DateTime class is flagged and does not pay attention to what has been defined, it is even necessary to use strftime ()

In your case, to return the full textual representation would look like this: 

strftime( '%B', $dateObj -> getTimestamp() );

I've highlighted the term complete because you use a substr () to shorten the output. In that case, it would be more interesting to use: 

strftime( '%b', $dateObj -> getTimestamp() );

And get the correct abbreviated representation.

The answers already present are the way forward, but for those who are having trouble setting locale to Portuguese, a scenario that is sometimes impossible or limited due to server settings, a function that does not rely on the settings provided by setlocale , doing a verification of the received values and returning the date formatted in Portuguese:

Function in PHP 

/**
 * Converter TimeStamp para data em Português
 *
 * @param integer $timestamp Unix timestamp
 * @param boolean $hours Se "true" devolve também as horas
 * @param string $timeZone Zona a utilizar para gerar as horas
 *
 * @return string
 */
function dataEmPortugues ($timestamp, $hours = FALSE, $timeZone = "Europe/Lisbon") {

    $dia_num = date("w", $timestamp);// Dia da semana.

    if($dia_num == 0){
    $dia_nome = "Domingo";
    }elseif($dia_num == 1){
    $dia_nome = "Segunda";
    }elseif($dia_num == 2){
    $dia_nome = "Terça";
    }elseif($dia_num == 3){
    $dia_nome = "Quarta";
    }elseif($dia_num == 4){
    $dia_nome = "Quinta";
    }elseif($dia_num == 5){
    $dia_nome = "Sexta";
    }else{
    $dia_nome = "Sábado";
    }

    $dia_mes = date("d", $timestamp);// Dia do mês

    $mes_num = date("m", $timestamp);// Nome do mês

    if($mes_num == 01){
    $mes_nome = "Janeiro";
    }elseif($mes_num == 02){
    $mes_nome = "Fevereiro";
    }elseif($mes_num == 03){
    $mes_nome = "Março";
    }elseif($mes_num == 04){
    $mes_nome = "Abril";
    }elseif($mes_num == 05){
    $mes_nome = "Maio";
    }elseif($mes_num == 06){
    $mes_nome = "Junho";
    }elseif($mes_num == 07){
    $mes_nome = "Julho";
    }elseif($mes_num == 08){
    $mes_nome = "Agosto";
    }elseif($mes_num == 09){
    $mes_nome = "Setembro";
    }elseif($mes_num == 10){
    $mes_nome = "Outubro";
    }elseif($mes_num == 11){
    $mes_nome = "Novembro";
    }else{
    $mes_nome = "Dezembro";
    }
    $ano = date("Y", $timestamp);// Ano

    date_default_timezone_set($timeZone); // Set time-zone
    $hora = date ("H:i", $timestamp);

    if ($hours) {
        return $dia_nome.", ".$dia_mes." de ".$mes_nome." de ".$ano." - ".$hora;
    }
    else {
        return $dia_nome.", ".$dia_mes." de ".$mes_nome." de ".$ano;
    }
}

Example of use: 

// data actual
echo dataEmPortugues(time());

// uma outra data
echo dataEmPortugues(strtotime("2014-07-17 21:49:23"));

// com data e hora
echo dataEmPortugues(strtotime("2014-07-17 21:49:23"), TRUE);

// com data e hora São Paulo
echo dataEmPortugues(strtotime("2014-07-17 21:49:23"), TRUE, "America/Sao_Paulo");

I know it has been asked for a long time, and it has local-based solutions, but as a 2nd option, I would like to put this approach as an example of a solution without logic testing.

I find it a bad practice to nest if 's as if there was no tomorrow.

From this, you can assemble class, function, spindle, etc ... The idea is to exemplify how to do the same thing, without using nested logical tests, or switch 's huge. 

    $numero_dia = date('w')*1;
    $dia_mes = date('d');
    $numero_mes = date('m')*1;
    $ano = date('Y');
    $dia = array('Domingo', 'Segunda-feira', 'Terça-feira', 'Quarta-feira', 'Quinta-feira', 'Sexta-feira', 'Sábado');
    $mes = array('', 'Janeiro', 'Fevereiro', 'Março', 'Abril', 'Maio', 'Junho', 'Julho', 'Agosto', 'Setembro', 'Outubro', 'Novembro', 'Dezembro');
    echo $dia[$numero_dia] . ", " .$dia_mes . " de " . $mes[$numero_mes] . " de " . $ano . ".";
