给定两个日期范围,确定两个日期是否重叠的最简单或最有效的方法是什么?

例如,假设我们有由DateTime变量StartDate1到EndDate1和StartDate2到EndDate2表示的范围。

在Microsoft SQL SERVER中-SQL函数

CREATE FUNCTION IsOverlapDates 
(
    @startDate1 as datetime,
    @endDate1 as datetime,
    @startDate2 as datetime,
    @endDate2 as datetime
)
RETURNS int
AS
BEGIN
DECLARE @Overlap as int
SET @Overlap = (SELECT CASE WHEN  (
        (@startDate1 BETWEEN @startDate2 AND @endDate2) -- caters for inner and end date outer
        OR
        (@endDate1 BETWEEN @startDate2 AND @endDate2) -- caters for inner and start date outer
        OR
        (@startDate2 BETWEEN @startDate1 AND @endDate1) -- only one needed for outer range where dates are inside.
        ) THEN 1 ELSE 0 END
    )
    RETURN @Overlap

END
GO

--Execution of the above code
DECLARE @startDate1 as datetime
DECLARE @endDate1 as datetime
DECLARE @startDate2 as datetime
DECLARE @endDate2 as datetime
DECLARE @Overlap as int
SET @startDate1 = '2014-06-01 01:00:00' 
SET @endDate1 =   '2014-06-01 02:00:00'
SET @startDate2 = '2014-06-01 01:00:00' 
SET @endDate2 =   '2014-06-01 01:30:00'

SET @Overlap = [dbo].[IsOverlapDates]  (@startDate1, @endDate1, @startDate2, @endDate2)

SELECT Overlap = @Overlap

最简单的

最简单的方法是使用精心设计的专用库进行日期时间工作。

someInterval.overlaps( anotherInterval )

java.time&ThreeTen额外

业务中最好的是内置在Java8和更高版本中的java.time框架。添加ThreeTen Extra项目,该项目用额外的类来补充java.time,特别是我们这里需要的Interval类。

至于这个问题上的语言不可知标签,两个项目的源代码都可以在其他语言中使用(注意它们的许可证)。

间隔

org.threeten.extra.Interval类很方便,但需要日期时间瞬间(java.time.Instant对象),而不是仅日期值。因此,我们继续使用UTC中的一天的第一刻来表示日期。

Instant start = Instant.parse( "2016-01-01T00:00:00Z" );
Instant stop = Instant.parse( "2016-02-01T00:00:00Z" );

创建一个间隔来表示该时间跨度。

Interval interval_A = Interval.of( start , stop );

我们也可以用开始时刻加上持续时间来定义间隔。

Instant start_B = Instant.parse( "2016-01-03T00:00:00Z" );
Interval interval_B = Interval.of( start_B , Duration.of( 3 , ChronoUnit.DAYS ) );

比较和测试重叠很容易。

Boolean overlaps = interval_A.overlaps( interval_B );

您可以将“间隔”与另一个“间隔”或“即时”进行比较:

邻接,邻接包含外壳等于在之后是之前重叠,重叠

所有这些都使用半开放的方法来定义一段时间,其中开始是包容性的,结束是排他性的。

if (StartDate1 > StartDate2) swap(StartDate, EndDate);

(StartDate1 <= EndDate2) and (StartDate2 <= EndDate1);

这里还有一个使用JavaScript的解决方案。我的解决方案的特点:

将空值处理为无穷大假设下限是包含的,上限是不包含的。附带一系列测试

这些测试基于整数,但由于JavaScript中的日期对象是可比较的,因此您也可以添加两个日期对象。或者您可以输入毫秒时间戳。

代码:

/**
 * Compares to comparable objects to find out whether they overlap.
 * It is assumed that the interval is in the format [from,to) (read: from is inclusive, to is exclusive).
 * A null value is interpreted as infinity
 */
function intervalsOverlap(from1, to1, from2, to2) {
    return (to2 === null || from1 < to2) && (to1 === null || to1 > from2);
}

测验:

describe('', function() {
    function generateTest(firstRange, secondRange, expected) {
        it(JSON.stringify(firstRange) + ' and ' + JSON.stringify(secondRange), function() {
            expect(intervalsOverlap(firstRange[0], firstRange[1], secondRange[0], secondRange[1])).toBe(expected);
        });
    }

    describe('no overlap (touching ends)', function() {
        generateTest([10,20], [20,30], false);
        generateTest([20,30], [10,20], false);

        generateTest([10,20], [20,null], false);
        generateTest([20,null], [10,20], false);

        generateTest([null,20], [20,30], false);
        generateTest([20,30], [null,20], false);
    });

    describe('do overlap (one end overlaps)', function() {
        generateTest([10,20], [19,30], true);
        generateTest([19,30], [10,20], true);

        generateTest([10,20], [null,30], true);
        generateTest([10,20], [19,null], true);
        generateTest([null,30], [10,20], true);
        generateTest([19,null], [10,20], true);
    });

    describe('do overlap (one range included in other range)', function() {
        generateTest([10,40], [20,30], true);
        generateTest([20,30], [10,40], true);

        generateTest([10,40], [null,null], true);
        generateTest([null,null], [10,40], true);
    });

    describe('do overlap (both ranges equal)', function() {
        generateTest([10,20], [10,20], true);

        generateTest([null,20], [null,20], true);
        generateTest([10,null], [10,null], true);
        generateTest([null,null], [null,null], true);
    });
});

使用karma&jasmine&PhantomJS运行时的结果:

PhantomJS 1.9.8(Linux):执行20次成功(0.003秒/0.004秒)

我遇到过这样的情况,我们有日期而不是日期时间,并且日期只能在开始/结束时重叠。示例如下:

(绿色是当前间隔,蓝色块是有效间隔,红色块是重叠间隔)。

我将Ian Nelson的答案改编为以下解决方案:

   (startB <= startA && endB > startA)
|| (startB >= startA && startB < endA)

这匹配所有重叠情况,但忽略允许的重叠情况。

对于ruby,我也发现了这一点:

class Interval < ActiveRecord::Base

  validates_presence_of :start_date, :end_date

  # Check if a given interval overlaps this interval    
  def overlaps?(other)
    (start_date - other.end_date) * (other.start_date - end_date) >= 0
  end

  # Return a scope for all interval overlapping the given interval, including the given interval itself
  named_scope :overlapping, lambda { |interval| {
    :conditions => ["id <> ? AND (DATEDIFF(start_date, ?) * DATEDIFF(?, end_date)) >= 0", interval.id, interval.end_date, interval.start_date]
  }}

end
