PHP | 获取两个重叠日期范围的总月份数

Question

i am trying to figure out how to get total Months in between two overlapping date Ranges.

eg Date Range from Date-A to Date-B overlapping the Date range of Date-X and Date-Y.

_ Start|Jan - Feb - March - April ------ Nov - Dec|End (DateRange A) Start|Jan - Feb ---- Dec - Jan - Feb|End _

In two date ranges the Jan and Feb Months are colliding. Means Total of 2 Months are there. So i want these two months in my array so i can apply different functions on it.

eg i have these two dates

$dateRange1Start = "2015-07-01";
$dateRange1End = "2014-06-30"; 
=-=-=-=====-=-==
$dateRange2Start = "2012-02-01";
$dateRange2End = "2014-12-31";

There are total 6 Months in colliding between these two date ranges. i want to get these 6 Months.

I tried to search for help in google, but mostly i get less than or greater than signs. but specifically like this. I tried to implement my own logic but its not getting me anywhere, sadly to only more problems :(

i am trying to get results like this

$collidingDates = array("2014-07","2014-08","2014-09","2014-10","2014-11","2014-12");

Any help would be appreciated. :)

=-=-=-=-=-=-=-==-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=--=-=

UPDATE:

Here is what i have done so far, yes getting some code from here and there. and tweaking it a bit up to fulfill my requirements.

//Getting all Months from First Date Range

$start = (new DateTime('2014-06-01'))->modify('first day of this month');

 $end = (new DateTime('2015-05-06'))->modify('first day of next month');

 $interval = DateInterval::createFromDateString('1 month'); 

$firstPeriod = new DatePeriod($start, $interval, $end);



//Getting all Months from Second Date Range.
$start = (new DateTime('2012-02-01'))->modify('first day of this month');

 $end = (new DateTime('2014-12-31'))->modify('first day of next month');

 $interval = DateInterval::createFromDateString('1 month'); 

$secondPeriod = new DatePeriod($start, $interval, $end);


$collidingDates = array();

 foreach ($firstPeriod as $f_dt) { 
   foreach($secondPeriod as $s_dt){
        if($f_dt->format("Y-m") ===  $s_dt->format("Y-m")){

            array_push($collidingDates,$f_dt->format("Y-m"));

        }

   }

 }

echo "<pre>";
print_r($collidingDates);

i got this output.

Array
    (
        [0] => 2014-06
        [1] => 2014-07
        [2] => 2014-08
        [3] => 2014-09
        [4] => 2014-10
        [5] => 2014-11
        [6] => 2014-12
    )

But i think i am getting 1 extra month 2014-06, not sure how O_o??

Answer 1

This is a two step process. First you need to establish the narrowest date range from the start and end dates. Then list the months between those dates.

// An array of start and end dates. There are just 2 in this example but you
// could have as many as you like in the same "start, then end" format.
$ranges = [
    [new DateTime('2014-07-01'), new DateTime('2015-06-30')],
    [new DateTime('2012-02-01'), new DateTime('2014-12-31')]
];

// Reduce the ranges to one set of two dates, the latest of the start dates
// and the earliest of the end dates.
$range = array_reduce($ranges, function($carry, $item){
    return $carry
        ? [max($carry[0], $item[0]), min($carry[1], $item[1])]
        : $item;
});

var_dump($range);
/*
array (size=2)
  0 => 
    object(DateTime)[1]
      public 'date' => string '2014-07-01 00:00:00.000000' (length=26)
      public 'timezone_type' => int 3
      public 'timezone' => string 'Europe/London' (length=13)
  1 => 
    object(DateTime)[4]
      public 'date' => string '2014-12-31 00:00:00.000000' (length=26)
      public 'timezone_type' => int 3
      public 'timezone' => string 'Europe/London' (length=13)
 */

// Shift both dates to the first of the month. Strictly speaking, we only
// need to do this with the start date.
$range = array_map(function($date){
    return $date->modify("first day of this month");
}, $range);

var_dump($range);
/*
array (size=2)
  0 => 
    object(DateTime)[1]
      public 'date' => string '2014-07-01 00:00:00.000000' (length=26)
      public 'timezone_type' => int 3
      public 'timezone' => string 'Europe/London' (length=13)
  1 => 
    object(DateTime)[4]
      public 'date' => string '2014-12-01 00:00:00.000000' (length=26)
      public 'timezone_type' => int 3
      public 'timezone' => string 'Europe/London' (length=13)
 */

$months = [];
$interval = new DateInterval("P1M");
for ($month = $range[0]; $month <= $range[1]; $month->add($interval)) {
    $months[] = $month->format("Y-m");
}
var_dump($months);
/*
array (size=6)
  0 => string '2014-07' (length=7)
  1 => string '2014-08' (length=7)
  2 => string '2014-09' (length=7)
  3 => string '2014-10' (length=7)
  4 => string '2014-11' (length=7)
  5 => string '2014-12' (length=7)
 */

Answer 2

I think you are looking for this:

 $start = (
                new DateTime('2015-12-02'))
                ->modify('first day of this month');

 $end = (new DateTime('2016-05-06'))->modify('first day of next month');

 $interval = DateInterval::createFromDateString('1 month'); 

$period = new DatePeriod($start, $interval, $end);

 foreach ($period as $dt) { 

echo $dt->format("Y-m") . "<br>\n";

 }
