Temporal Tricks with Carbon: A PHP Gist Featuring hasTestNow() and setTestNow()

SetTestNow.php

<?php
// 🎉 Birthday Check Function 🚀
use Carbon\Carbon;

function checkBirthday($birthday)
{
    return Carbon::now()->isSameDay($birthday)
        ? "🎉🥳 Happy Birthday! 🎂 Best wishes for an amazing year ahead! 🚀"
        : "🎈 No birthday today. Make it an awesome day anyway! 🌟";
}

// Example: Without TestNow
echo checkBirthday(Carbon::create(1990, 11, 23)) . PHP_EOL;
// 🎈 No birthday today. Make it an awesome day anyway! 🌟

// Example: With TestNow
Carbon::setTestNow(Carbon::create(2023, 11, 23));
echo checkBirthday(Carbon::create(1990, 11, 23)) . PHP_EOL;
// 🎉🥳 Happy Birthday! 🎂 Best wishes for an amazing year ahead! 🚀

// Reset to real-time ⏰
Carbon::setTestNow(null);

// Ready to roll? Check if the test time is set! 🚦
if (Carbon::hasTestNow()) {
    // 🚨 Test environment active! Handle accordingly... 🚨 
}
