The Carbon setTimezone() method will be utilized in Laravel to convert UTC time to local time. The setTimezone() function requires you to provide in your local timezone as an input. We shall convert the UTC time in this example to my local time, “Asia/Kolkata”.
Example of controller code:
<?php
namespace App\Http\Controllers;
use Illuminate\Http\Request;
use Carbon\Carbon;
class UserController extends Controller
{
/**
* Display a listing of the resource.
*
* @return \Illuminate\Http\Response
*/
public function index(Request $request)
{
$time = Carbon::parse('2023-10-18 20:25:48')
->setTimezone('Asia/Kolkata')
->toDateTimeString();
dd($time);
}
}OutPut:
2023-10-19 01:55:48Example 2:

*/
public function index(Request $request)
{
$time = Carbon::now()
->setTimezone('Asia/Kolkata')
->toDateTimeString();
dd($time);
