Usage

Add callback functions via piotrpress/dynamic_block/callbacks filter:

add_filter( 'piotrpress/dynamic_block/callbacks', function( array $callbacks ) : array {
    $callbacks[ 'Current date' ] = fn( array $attributes ) : string => date( 'Y-m-d H:i:s' );
    return $callbacks;
} );

or if you would like to translate the label:

add_filter( 'piotrpress/dynamic_block/callbacks', function( array $callbacks ) : array {
    $callbacks[ 'current_date' ] = [
        'label' => __( 'Current date', 'textdomain' ),
        'value' => fn( array $attributes ) : string => date( 'Y-m-d H:i:s' );
    ];
    return $callbacks;
} );
