在php中将日期和时间转换为仅年份

Question

I have a variable is which the value coming is Date along with time in php. How do I convert it into a variable to get only the year? I do not need automatic updation but the format change is needed. Normal answers are giving it about date but my variable is containing time as well.

The format coming by now is 2017-12-11 4:06:37 and i need only 2017

Answer 1

Use like this:

<?php echo date('Y',strtotime('now'));?>
