Convert time from AM/PM to 24 hour

Assuming the time string format will be same -

$time = explode(' ', '5:4 pm');
$temp = date_parse($time[0]);
$temp['minute'] = str_pad($temp['minute'], 2, '0', STR_PAD_LEFT);
echo date('H:i a', strtotime($temp['hour'] . ':' . $temp['minute'] . ' ' . $time[1]));

Output

How do you convert between 12 hour time and 24 hour time in PHP?

// 24-hour time to 12-hour time 
$time_in_12_hour_format  = date("g:i a", strtotime("13:30"));

// 12-hour time to 24-hour time 
$time_in_24_hour_format  = date("H:i", strtotime("1:30 PM"));

Convert date time with AM PM to 24 hour date format

I don't know what the origin of that date is (how it came to that), but you can use DateTime classes for this:

$raw_date = '10/25/2014 14:00 PM';
// to disregard that PM escape it in the format
$new_date = DateTime::createFromFormat('m/d/Y H:i \P\M', $raw_date);
echo $new_date->format('Y-m-d H:i:s'); // 2014-10-25 14:00:00

How do I convert date/time from 24-hour format to 12-hour AM/PM?

I think you can use date() function to achive this

$date = '19:24:15 06/13/2013'; 
echo date('h:i:s a m/d/Y', strtotime($date));

This will output

07:24:15 pm 06/13/2013

Live Sample

h is used for 12 digit time

i stands for minutes

s seconds

a will return am or pm (use in uppercase for AM PM)

m is used for months with digits

d is used for days in digit

Y uppercase is used for 4 digit year (use it lowercase for two digit)

Updated

This is with DateTime

$date = new DateTime('19:24:15 06/13/2013');
echo $date->format('h:i:s a m/d/Y') ;

Convert AM/PM to 24 hours clock in Laravel input field

You'll need to change your time field to the following

{{Form::time('time', \Carbon\Carbon::now()->timezone('Europe/Brussels')->format('H:i:s'),['class' => 'form-control'])}}

To explain the formatting;

H - 24 Hour with trailing zeros

i - Minutes with trailing zeros

s - Seconds with trailing zeros

You can see all the date/time variables at PHP Date

convert AMPM to datetime 24 hour

If you know the format of the string you better use the date_create_from_format function:

$s = '01-31-2017 09:01 AM';
$date = date_create_from_format('m-d-Y h:i A', $s);
var_dump($date->format('Y-m-d H:i:s'));

When you use the strtotime you let the php parse the string, and it might lead to a result you are not looking for (for example - 01-02-2017 - is it jan 2nd or feb 1st?).

Converting an AM/PM time to 24 hours format using PHP or MySQL?

STR_TO_DATE( `column_here`, '%l:%i %p' )

EDIT

Edited '%l:%M %p' to '%l:%i %p'

Date and time in 24 hours format

Use H instead:

$test = 'Fri, 15 Jan 2016 15:14:10 +0800';
$t = date('Y-m-d H:i:s',strtotime($test));
echo $t;

H: 24-hour format of an hour with leading zeros 00 through 23

G should be the same, but without leading zeroes though. I suspect that your PHP is set to a different timezone than +0800. Can you confirm your timezone (date_default_timezone_get())?

EDIT

OP confirmed that his timezone was set to UTC, in which case it maskes perfect sense that it shows 7 in the morning, as date uses PHPs default timezone.

If you want to "inherit" the Timezone, while getting more flexibility, you should switch to DateTime:

echo (new DateTime($test))->format("Y-m-d H:i:s");
