Cast datetime from JSON string?

Hmm, its default DatetimeCast converter.

PHP Code:

    // Project entity
    protected $casts  = [
        'id'        => 'int',
        'user_id'    => 'int',
        'name'      => 'string',
        'link'      => 'string',
        'archival'  => 'string',
        'created_at' => 'datetime',
    ];

// Controller send response
return $this->response->setJSON($project);

// Get response after CURLRequest
    {
        "id": 1,
        "user_id": 1,
        "name": "Project #1",
        "link": "https://ya.ru",
        "archival": "no",
        "created_at": {
            "date": "2023-11-25 10:20:35.000000",
            "timezone_type": 3,
            "timezone": "Europe/Moscow"
        }
    }
