我认为这是最简短的答案

按照您的喜好编辑代码

for ($x=strtotime('2015-12-01');$x<=strtotime('2015-12-30');$x+=86400)
echo date('Y-m-d',$x);

这里有一种使用Carbon https://github.com/briannesbitt/Carbon:的方法

public function buildDateRangeArray($first, $last)
{
    while ($first <= $last) {
        $dates[] = $first->toDateString();

        $first->addDay();
    }

    return $dates;
}

当然，这可以被调整为不使用碳。传递给函数的$first和$last参数是Carbon实例。

请注意，ViNce提供的答案不包括期间的结束日期。

如果你使用的是PHP 5.3+，你最好使用这样的函数:

/**
 * Generate an array of string dates between 2 dates
 *
 * @param string $start Start date
 * @param string $end End date
 * @param string $format Output format (Default: Y-m-d)
 *
 * @return array
 */
function getDatesFromRange($start, $end, $format = 'Y-m-d') {
    $array = array();
    $interval = new DateInterval('P1D');

    $realEnd = new DateTime($end);
    $realEnd->add($interval);

    $period = new DatePeriod(new DateTime($start), $interval, $realEnd);

    foreach($period as $date) { 
        $array[] = $date->format($format); 
    }

    return $array;
}

然后，你可以像预期的那样调用函数:

getDatesFromRange('2010-10-01', '2010-10-05');

运行演示

关于DatePeriod类的注意:您可以使用DatePeriod的第4个参数来排除开始日期(DatePeriod::EXCLUDE_START_DATE)，但此时不能包括结束日期。

简短的函数。PHP 5.3及更高版本。可以采用strtotime可以理解的任何日期格式的可选第三个参数。如果end < start自动反转方向。

function getDatesFromRange($start, $end, $format='Y-m-d') {
    return array_map(function($timestamp) use($format) {
        return date($format, $timestamp);
    },
    range(strtotime($start) + ($start < $end ? 4000 : 8000), strtotime($end) + ($start < $end ? 8000 : 4000), 86400));
}

测试:

date_default_timezone_set('Europe/Berlin');
print_r(getDatesFromRange( '2016-7-28','2016-8-2' ));
print_r(getDatesFromRange( '2016-8-2','2016-7-28' ));
print_r(getDatesFromRange( '2016-10-28','2016-11-2' ));
print_r(getDatesFromRange( '2016-11-2','2016-10-28' ));
print_r(getDatesFromRange( '2016-4-2','2016-3-25' ));
print_r(getDatesFromRange( '2016-3-25','2016-4-2' ));
print_r(getDatesFromRange( '2016-8-2','2016-7-25' ));
print_r(getDatesFromRange( '2016-7-25','2016-8-2' ));

输出:
