Question

I was trying to get the FuelPHP ORM Observers to use MySQL datetimes rather than unix timestamps, however I can t figure out how to use the code provided in the docs.

They provide this code: OrmObserver_CreatedAt::$mysql_timestamp = true;

But where do I use this? In the model? It doesn t seem to work there.

Thanks!

This is something that was put in a bit hacky and should have been a config value from the beginning, something we ll fix for 1.1.

Best way to do it right now is probably to give the models using the CreatedAt/UpdatedAt observers an _init() method like the code below. The init method is called by the autoloader after loading the class.

public static function _init()
{
    OrmObserver_CreatedAt::$mysql_timestamp = true;
    OrmObserver_UpdatedAt::$mysql_timestamp = true;
}

Btw asking a question on our forums or on IRC will probably get you faster answers.
