如何更改cakephp中的默认日期格式？

Question

I am using cakephp 2.5.x.

I have the following code in my controller;

$Dates = $this->Model->find('all');          
echo json_encode($Dates);

$Dates contain some dates with the default format being YYYY-mm-dd. How can I change it such that the format becomes dd-mm-YYYY?

Answer 1

$original_date = explode('/',$Dates);
$day= $original_date[0]; // 2014
$month = $original_date[1]; // 07
$year=  $original_date[2]; // 21
$date = $day.'/'.$month.'/'.$year;
echo $date;
