// Specify the start date. This date can be any English textual format  
$date_from = "2018-02-03";   
$date_from = strtotime($date_from); // Convert date to a UNIX timestamp  

// Specify the end date. This date can be any English textual format  
$date_to = "2018-09-10";  
$date_to = strtotime($date_to); // Convert date to a UNIX timestamp  

// Loop from the start date to end date and output all dates inbetween  
for ($i=$date_from; $i<=$date_to; $i+=86400) {  
    echo date("Y-m-d", $i).'<br />';  
} 

使用DateTime对象的PHP 5.2解决方案。但是startDate必须在endDate之前。

function createRange($startDate, $endDate) {
    $tmpDate = new DateTime($startDate);
    $tmpEndDate = new DateTime($endDate);

    $outArray = array();
    do {
        $outArray[] = $tmpDate->format('Y-m-d');
    } while ($tmpDate->modify('+1 day') <= $tmpEndDate);

    return $outArray;
}

使用:

$dates = createRange('2010-10-01', '2010-10-05');

$日期包含:

Array( '2010-10-01', '2010-10-02', '2010-10-03', '2010-10-04', '2010-10-05' )       

  function GetDays($sStartDate, $sEndDate){  
      // Firstly, format the provided dates.  
      // This function works best with YYYY-MM-DD  
      // but other date formats will work thanks  
      // to strtotime().  
      $sStartDate = gmdate("Y-m-d", strtotime($sStartDate));  
      $sEndDate = gmdate("Y-m-d", strtotime($sEndDate));  

      // Start the variable off with the start date  
     $aDays[] = $sStartDate;  

     // Set a 'temp' variable, sCurrentDate, with  
     // the start date - before beginning the loop  
     $sCurrentDate = $sStartDate;  

     // While the current date is less than the end date  
     while($sCurrentDate < $sEndDate){  
       // Add a day to the current date  
       $sCurrentDate = gmdate("Y-m-d", strtotime("+1 day", strtotime($sCurrentDate)));  

       // Add this new day to the aDays array  
       $aDays[] = $sCurrentDate;  
     }  

     // Once the loop has finished, return the  
     // array of days.  
     return $aDays;  
   }  

使用像

GetDays('2007-01-01', '2007-01-31'); 

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

简单却有魅力:

    $period = new DatePeriod(new DateTime('2015-01-01'), new DateInterval('P1D'), new DateTime('2015-01-15 +1 day'));
    foreach ($period as $date) {
        $dates[] = $date->format("Y-m-d");
    }

    //ONLY SHOWING
    echo '<pre>';
    var_dump($dates);
    echo '</pre>';
    exit();

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。
