我发现这个解决方法很好。(使用python-dateutil扩展名)

from datetime import date
from dateutil.relativedelta import relativedelta

six_months = date.today() + relativedelta(months=+6)

这种方法的优势在于，它可以处理28天、30天、31天的问题。这在处理业务规则和场景(比如发票生成等)时非常有用。

$ date(2010,12,31)+relativedelta(months=+1)
  datetime.date(2011, 1, 31)

$ date(2010,12,31)+relativedelta(months=+2)
  datetime.date(2011, 2, 28)

Dateutil包实现了这样的功能。但要知道，这将是天真的，因为其他人已经指出。

使用python datetime模块为datetime.today()添加6个月的时间增量。

http://docs.python.org/library/datetime.html

你当然要解决Johannes weß提出的问题——你说的6个月是什么意思?

我知道这个问题已经有很多答案，但是使用collections.deque和rotate()方法，可以创建一个函数，该函数接受一个datetime对象作为输入，然后输出一个比当前对象晚一个“业务月”的新datetime对象。如果该月的某一天在下个月不存在，则减去1，直到它到达该月的有效日期，然后返回该对象。

import collections
import datetime

def next_month(dt: datetime.datetime):
    month_list = list(range(1, 12 + 1))
    months = collections.deque(month_list)
    while True:
        this_month = list(months)[0]
        if dt.month == this_month:
            break
        months.rotate(-1)
    months.rotate(-1)
    month_plus = list(months)[0]
    for i in range(4):
        try:
            return dt.replace(month=month_plus, day=dt.day - i)
        except ValueError:
            continue

使用itertools.cycle也可以得到相同的结果。

import datetime
import itertools

def next_month(dt: datetime.datetime):
    month_list = list(range(1, 12 + 1))
    month = itertools.cycle(month_list)
    while True:
        if next(month) == dt.month:
            break
    month_plus = next(month)
    for i in range(4):
        try:
            return dt.replace(month=month_plus, day=dt.day - i)
        except ValueError:
            continue

我的实现基于taleinat的答案:

import datetime
import calendar

def add_months(orig_date, month_count = 1):
    while month_count > 12:
        month_count -= 12
        orig_date = add_months(orig_date, 12)
    new_year = orig_date.year
    new_month = orig_date.month + month_count
    # note: in datetime.date, months go from 1 to 12
    if new_month > 12:
        new_year += 1
        new_month -= 12

    last_day_of_month = calendar.monthrange(new_year, new_month)[1]
    new_day = min(orig_date.day, last_day_of_month)

    return orig_date.replace(year=new_year, month=new_month, day=new_day)

有了这个功能，你可以添加任意多的月份。

from datetime import date
dt = date(2021, 1, 31)

print(add_months(dt, 49))

返回 2025-02-28

当我需要添加几个月或几年的时间，并且不想导入更多的库时，我就会这样做。

只需创建一个datetime.date()对象，调用add_month(date)来添加一个月，调用add_year(date)来添加一个年。
