Now, let's see how to format the date, time, and numeric fields. Yii2 provides helpers for each of these types.

To format a value, we will use Yii::$app->formatter; this object belongs to the Formatter class located under yiii18n and supports many types of formatting. All the methods used for this purpose start with an as prefix. Therefore, the asDate method will be used to format dates, and the asCurrency method will be used to format currencies.

The first parameter of each formatting method is the value to be formatted and other fields refer to the format to be used and other optional parameters.

Let's change the view content by adding content of the Model that is ready to be saved:

<?php if($modelCanSave) { ?>
<div class="alert alert-success">
    Model ready to be saved!
    <br /><br />
    These are values: <br />
    Floor: <?php echo $model->floor; ?> <br />
    Room Number: <?php echo $model->room_number; ?> <br />
    Has conditioner: <?php echo Yii::$app->formatter->asBoolean($model->has_conditioner); ?> <br />
    Has TV: <?php echo Yii::$app->formatter->asBoolean($model->has_tv); ?> <br />
    Has phone: <?php echo Yii::$app->formatter->asBoolean($model->has_phone); ?> <br />
    Available from (mm/dd/yyyy): <?php echo Yii::$app->formatter->asDate($model->available_from,'php:m/d/Y'); ?> <br />
    Price per day: <?php echo Yii::$app->formatter->asCurrency($model->price_per_day,'EUR'); ?> <br />
    
</div>
<?php } ?>

If $model is ready to be saved, in the box with the green background, we will have the output of each of the fields of Model.

In this example, we have used:

This is how the box with the content of Model appears:
