Time Pattern Manager Tool

In this documentation we will go through the functionality of the time pattern configuration tool.

This tool is used for changing time patterns in Carnivore. Every timestamp in Carnivore that will be changed to a real date is converted using the PHP date function. This tool allows you to set a different time format than the one that's being used already (dd-mm-yy). This will result timestamp values in output being formatted in the specified date format.

Expanding Time Pattern Configuration Tool:

You can edit Native/time_edit.php and enter more formats.

The first selection is the format that the php function date expects, the second is the format that users will see when the php date function is executed.

Known Issues:

It's important to understand that when you change this pattern that all the dates like Last Edit will not automatically change to the new format. This can become really confusing when you use one of the built-in editors and the file's date pattern is changed while the rest of the files still use the previous pattern.
