Description

Ecommerce Realization Days is a PHP library for calculating and formatting order fulfillment (e.g. shipping) dates in e-commerce systems.

It supports:

• golden hour logic (cutoff time for same-day shipping)
• fixed days off (e.g. holidays)
• weekly days off (e.g. weekends)
• templates with html tags allowed

Installation

Install via Composer:

composer require r-a-f/ecommerce-realization-days

✅ Example (basic)

use RealizationDays\RealizationDays;

$config = new RealizationDays();
$config->setGoldenHour(14);
$config->setRealizationDays(3);
$config->setDateDaysOff(['2025-05-01', '2025-05-03']);
$config->setDateWeekOff([6, 7]); // Saturday and Sunday

$context = $config->calc();

echo $context->date->format('Y-m-d');

🎯 Formatting and display

You can use RealizationDaysFormatter to generate customer-friendly messages like:

"Order today – ships by Friday"
"Order now – ships until 14:00 today"

🧪 Example:

use RealizationDays\RealizationDaysFormatter;

// Format output
$formatter = new RealizationDaysFormatter($context);

// Set weekdays and templates
$formatter->setTranslation(
    ['Monday', 'Tuesday', 'Wednesday', 'Thursday', 'Friday', 'Saturday', 'Sunday'],
    [
        'BEFORE_TODAY' => 'Order today – ships before %DATE_OR_WEEKDAY%',
        'BEFORE_TOMORROW' => 'Order today – ships tomorrow!',
        'BEFORE_NEXT_DAYS' => 'Order today – ships by %DATE_OR_WEEKDAY%',
        'AFTER_TODAY' => 'Order now – ships until %GOLDEN_HOUR% today',
        'AFTER_TOMORROW' => 'Order now – ships the day after tomorrow',
        'AFTER_NEXT_DAYS' => 'Order now – ships by %DATE_OR_WEEKDAY%',
    ]
);

echo $formatter->format('d-m-Y'); // e.g. "Order today – ships by 20-04-2025"
