Thank you Thomas.
Localization in ZF is great, indeed.
I've been looking in Zend_Locale and Zend_Date,
but the key was Zend_Locale_Data.
I wrote a function I needed:
/**
* Get localized array of the weekdays, starting from the first day of
the week, depending on region
*
* @param string|Zend_Locale $locale Locale with region, e.g. pl_PL
* @param string|int $format
* @return array
*/
public function getWeekdays($locale, $format = null)
{
if (is_string($locale)) {
$locale = new Zend_Locale($locale);
}
$days = Zend_Locale_Data::getList($locale, 'days');
switch ($format) {
case 'abbreviated':
case Zend_Date::WEEKDAY_SHORT:
$daysDisplayed = $days['format']['abbreviated']; // Sun,
Mon, Tue
break;
case 'wide':
case Zend_Date::WEEKDAY_NAME:
$daysDisplayed = $dayInfo['format']['wide']; // Sunday,
Monday, Tuesday
break;
case 'narrow':
case Zend_Date::WEEKDAY_NARROW:
$daysDisplayed = $dayInfo['stand-alone']['narrow']; // S, M,
T,
break;
default:
$daysDisplayed = $dayInfo['stand-alone']['narrow']; //
}
$weekInfo = Zend_Locale_Data::getList($locale, 'week');
$firstDayAbbr = $weekInfo['firstDay'];
$firstDayNr = (int)$days['format']['narrow'][$firstDayAbbr];
for ($i=1; $i<$firstDayNr; $i++) {
$e = array_shift($daysDisplayed);
array_push($daysDisplayed, $e);
}
return array_values($daysDisplayed);
}
