下面是一个函数，它将从两个方向返回日期范围，适用于PHP >=5.2.2:

function createRange($start, $end, $format = 'Y-m-d') {
    $start  = new DateTime($start);
    $end    = new DateTime($end);
    $invert = $start > $end;

    $dates = array();
    $dates[] = $start->format($format);
    while ($start != $end) {
        $start->modify(($invert ? '-' : '+') . '1 day');
        $dates[] = $start->format($format);
    }
    return $dates;
}

使用的例子:

print_r(createRange('2010-10-01', '2010-10-05'));
/*Array
(
    [0] => 2010-10-01
    [1] => 2010-10-02
    [2] => 2010-10-03
    [3] => 2010-10-04
    [4] => 2010-10-05
)*/

print_r(createRange('2010-10-05', '2010-10-01', 'j M Y'));
/*Array
(
    [0] => 5 Oct 2010
    [1] => 4 Oct 2010
    [2] => 3 Oct 2010
    [3] => 2 Oct 2010
    [4] => 1 Oct 2010
)*/

demo

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:

Array ( [0] => 2016-07-28 [1] => 2016-07-29 [2] => 2016-07-30 [3] => 2016-07-31 [4] => 2016-08-01 [5] => 2016-08-02 )

Array ( [0] => 2016-03-25 [1] => 2016-03-26 [2] => 2016-03-27 [3] => 2016-03-28 [4] => 2016-03-29 [5] => 2016-03-30 [6] => 2016-03-31 [7] => 2016-04-01 [8] => 2016-04-02 ) 
Array ( [0] => 2016-08-02 [1] => 2016-08-01 [2] => 2016-07-31 [3] => 2016-07-30 [4] => 2016-07-29 [5] => 2016-07-28 [6] => 2016-07-27 [7] => 2016-07-26 [8] => 2016-07-25 ) 
Array ( [0] => 2016-07-25 [1] => 2016-07-26 [2] => 2016-07-27 [3] => 2016-07-28 [4] => 2016-07-29 [5] => 2016-07-30 [6] => 2016-07-31 [7] => 2016-08-01 [8] => 2016-08-02 )

这是另一个解决方案。请核对一下。

$first = '10/30/2017'; //starting date
$last= '10/11/2017';   //ending date
$first_time_arr=explode('/',$first); 
$last_time_arr=explode('/',$last);
//create timestamp of starting date
$start_timestamp=mktime(0,0,0, $first_time_arr[0], $first_time_arr[1],$first_time_arr[2]);
//create timestamp of ending date
$end_timestamp=mktime(0,0,0, $last_time_arr[0], $last_time_arr[1],$last_time_arr[2]);
$date_arr=array();
for($i=$start_timestamp;$i<=$end_timestamp;$i=$i+86400){
    $date_arr[]=date("Y-m-d",$i); //this will save all dates in array
}

function getWeekdayDatesFrom($format, $start_date_epoch, $end_date_epoch, $range) {

    $dates_arr = array();

    if( ! $range) {
        $range = round(abs($start_date_epoch-$end_date_epoch)/86400) + 1;
    } else {
        $range = $range + 1; //end date inclusive
    }

    $current_date_epoch = $start_date_epoch;

    for($i = 1; $i <= $range; $i+1) {

        $d = date('N',  $current_date_epoch);

        if($d <= 5) { // not sat or sun
            $dates_arr[] = "'".date($format, $current_date_epoch)."'";
        }

        $next_day_epoch = strtotime('+'.$i.'day', $start_date_epoch);
        $i++;
        $current_date_epoch = $next_day_epoch;

    }

    return $dates_arr;
} 

你必须添加$end->modify('+1 day')来包含间隔的最后一天，例如，如果不使用modify()方法，一月份将有31天而不是30天。 这个版本的代码将包括间隔的最后一天:

$begin = new DateTime( '2018-08-01' );
$end = new DateTime( '2018-08-31' );
$end = $end->modify( '+1 day' ); 

$interval = new DateInterval('P1D');
$daterange = new DatePeriod($begin, $interval ,$end);

foreach($daterange as $date){
    echo $date->format("Ymd") . "<br>";
}

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);
