Laravel Localized time

First of all we will get selected language for a multi-Lang laravel website and store it in a variable.

$locale = app::getLocale();

Now based on selected language, We will use switch case to find selected language and display time

switch ($locale) {
    case 'en':
        $locale_str = "en_US.UTF-8";
        $locale_lctime = "en_US";
        break;
    case 'ar':
        $locale_str = "ar_AE.utf8";
        $locale_lctime = "ar_AE";
        break;
    case 'de':
        $locale_str = "de_DE.UTF-8";
        $locale_lctime = "de_DE";
        break;
    case 'es':
        $locale_str = "es_ES.UTF-8";
        $locale_lctime = "es_ES";
        break;
    case 'fr':
        $locale_str = "fr_FR.UTF-8";
        $locale_lctime = "fr_FR";
        break;
    case 'in':
        $locale_str = "hi_IN.UTF-8";
        $locale_lctime = "hi_IN";
        break;
    case 'pt':
        $locale_str = "pt_PT.UTF-8";
        $locale_lctime = "pt_PT";
        break;
    case 'ru':
        $locale_str = "ru_RU.UTF-8";
        $locale_lctime = "ru_RU";
        break;
    case 'it':
        $locale_str = "it_IT.UTF-8";
        $locale_lctime = "it_IT";
        break;
    default:
        $locale_str = "en_US.UTF-8";
        $locale_lctime = "en_US";
}

setlocale(LC_ALL, $locale_str);

$startDate = strftime("%A, %F", strtotime(\Carbon\Carbon::now()->subDays(6)->format('Y-m-d')));
$endDate = strftime("%A, %F", strtotime(\Carbon\Carbon::now()->format('Y-m-d')));

Now we time in local language selected in laravel, we will display it in blade.
