Constants

FORMAT_KEY

Methods

__construct(string $format = \DateTime::RFC3339)
array|scalar normalize(object $object, string $format = null, array $context = array())

Normalizes an object into a set of arrays/scalars.

bool supportsNormalization(mixed $data, string $format = null)

Checks whether the given class is supported for normalization by this normalizer.

object denormalize(mixed $data, string $class, string $format = null, array $context = array())

Denormalizes data back into an object of the given class.

bool supportsDenormalization(mixed $data, string $type, string $format = null)

Checks whether the given class is supported for denormalization by this normalizer.
