使用时间范围将月份更改为laravel中的不同语言

I am trying to change/format created_at and updated_at fields created by laravel when timestamps are set to true in its model.

suppose if the value is '2016-10-08' i want it to change as '2016-أكتوبر-08'

Is there a way to customise the way they are stored in the database.

I 've tried setting the locale in app.php,

'locale' => 'ar', 

Try adding this Eloquent Mutator to your model to override the base model using your set locale value (ar as defined in your app.php):

protected function asDateTime($value)
{
    return (parent::asDateTime($value))->setLocale(App::getLocale());
}
