“Python -dateutil”(外部扩展)是一个很好的解决方案，但你可以使用内置的Python模块(datetime和datetime)来实现它。

我做了一个简短的代码，来解决它(处理年，月和日)

(运行:Python 3.8.2)

from datetime import datetime
from calendar import monthrange

# Time to increase (in months)
inc = 12

# Returns mod of the division for 12 (months)
month = ((datetime.now().month + inc) % 12) or 1

# Increase the division by 12 (months), if necessary (+ 12 months increase)
year = datetime.now().year + int((month + inc) / 12)

# (IF YOU DON'T NEED DAYS,CAN REMOVE THE BELOW CODE)
# Returns the same day in new month, or the maximum day of new month
day = min(datetime.now().day,monthrange(year, month)[1])

print("Year: {}, Month: {}, Day: {}".format(year, month, day))

下面是一个示例，它允许用户决定如何返回一个日期，其中一天大于一个月中的天数。

def add_months(date, months, endOfMonthBehaviour='RoundUp'):
    assert endOfMonthBehaviour in ['RoundDown', 'RoundIn', 'RoundOut', 'RoundUp'], \
        'Unknown end of month behaviour'
    year = date.year + (date.month + months - 1) / 12
    month = (date.month + months - 1) % 12 + 1
    day = date.day
    last = monthrange(year, month)[1]
    if day > last:
        if endOfMonthBehaviour == 'RoundDown' or \
            endOfMonthBehaviour == 'RoundOut' and months < 0 or \
            endOfMonthBehaviour == 'RoundIn' and months > 0:
            day = last
        elif endOfMonthBehaviour == 'RoundUp' or \
            endOfMonthBehaviour == 'RoundOut' and months > 0 or \
            endOfMonthBehaviour == 'RoundIn' and months < 0:
            # we don't need to worry about incrementing the year
            # because there will never be a day in December > 31
            month += 1
            day = 1
    return datetime.date(year, month, day)


>>> from calendar import monthrange
>>> import datetime
>>> add_months(datetime.datetime(2016, 1, 31), 1)
datetime.date(2016, 3, 1)
>>> add_months(datetime.datetime(2016, 1, 31), -2)
datetime.date(2015, 12, 1)
>>> add_months(datetime.datetime(2016, 1, 31), -2, 'RoundDown')
datetime.date(2015, 11, 30)

我对Tony Diep的答案的修改，可能稍微更优雅(当然，Python 2，匹配问题和原始答案的日期，对于Python 3，必要时修改，至少包括/ to //):

def add_months(date, months):
    month = date.month + months - 1
    year = date.year + (month / 12)
    month = (month % 12) + 1
    day = date.day
    while (day > 0):
        try:
            new_date = date.replace(year=year, month=month, day=day)
            break
        except:
            day = day - 1    
    return new_date

根据“业务需求”解释添加月份，即日期映射到月底之后，应该映射到月底，而不是下一个月。

我找不到这个问题的确切解决方案，所以我将发布我的解决方案，以防使用标准日历和datetime库可能有任何帮助。这适用于添加和减去月份，并考虑月末滚动和最后一个月比第一个月天数少的情况。如果你正在寻找更复杂的操作，我还有一个更通用的解决方案，它添加了定期间隔(天，月，年，季度，学期等)，如:“1m”，“-9m”，“-1.5y”，“-3q”，“1s”等。

from datetime import datetime
from calendar import monthrange
def date_bump_months(start_date, months):
    """
    bumps months back and forth. 
    --> if initial date is end-of-month, i will move to corresponding month-end
    --> ir inital date.day is greater than end of month of final date, it casts it to momth-end
    """
    signbit = -1 if months < 0 else 1
    d_year, d_month = divmod(abs(months),12)    
    end_year = start_date.year + d_year*signbit 
    end_month = 0
    if signbit ==-1:            
        if d_month < start_date.month:
            end_month = start_date.month - d_month
        else:
            end_year -=1
            end_month = 12 - (d_month - start_date.month)
    else:
        end_month +=start_date.month
        if end_month  > 12:
            end_year +=1
            end_month -=12
    # check if we are running end-of-month dates
    eom_run = monthrange(start_date.year, start_date.month)[1]==start_date.day
    eom_month = monthrange((end_year), (end_month))[1]
    if eom_run:
        end_day = eom_month 
    else:
        end_day = min(start_date.day, eom_month )    
    return date(end_year, end_month, end_day)

我插话晚了，但是

查看肯雷茨玛雅模块，

https://github.com/kennethreitz/maya

像这样的方法可能会对你有帮助，只需将小时=1改为天=1或年=1

>>> from maya import MayaInterval

# Create an event that is one hour long, starting now.
>>> event_start = maya.now()
>>> event_end = event_start.add(hours=1)

>>> event = MayaInterval(start=event_start, end=event_end)

从这个答案中，请参见parsedatetime。下面是代码示例。更多细节:使用许多自然语言-> YYYY-MM-DD转换示例进行单元测试，以及明显的parsedatetime转换挑战/bug。

#!/usr/bin/env python
# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
import time, calendar
from datetime import date

# from https://github.com/bear/parsedatetime
import parsedatetime as pdt

def print_todays_date():
    todays_day_of_week = calendar.day_name[date.today().weekday()]
    print "today's date = " + todays_day_of_week + ', ' + \
                              time.strftime('%Y-%m-%d')

def convert_date(natural_language_date):
    cal = pdt.Calendar()
    (struct_time_date, success) = cal.parse(natural_language_date)
    if success:
        formal_date = time.strftime('%Y-%m-%d', struct_time_date)
    else:
        formal_date = '(conversion failed)'
    print '{0:12s} -> {1:10s}'.format(natural_language_date, formal_date)

print_todays_date()
convert_date('6 months')

上面的代码从MacOSX机器生成以下内容:

$ ./parsedatetime_simple.py 
today's date = Wednesday, 2015-05-13
6 months     -> 2015-11-13
$
