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)

按月开始计算:

from datetime import timedelta
from dateutil.relativedelta import relativedelta

end_date = start_date + relativedelta(months=delta_period) + timedelta(days=-delta_period)

还有另一个解决方案，希望有人会喜欢:

def add_months(d, months):
    return d.replace(year=d.year+months//12).replace(month=(d.month+months)%12)

这个解决方案并不适用于所有情况下的第29、30、31天，所以需要更健壮的解决方案(这已经不是那么好了:)):

def add_months(d, months):
    for i in range(4):
        day = d.day - i
        try:
            return d.replace(day=day).replace(year=d.year+int(months)//12).replace(month=(d.month+int(months))%12)
        except:
            pass
    raise Exception("should not happen")

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)

使用下面给出的函数，你可以得到x个月之后/之前的日期。

from datetime import date

def next_month(given_date, month):
    yyyy = int(((given_date.year * 12 + given_date.month) + month)/12)
    mm = int(((given_date.year * 12 + given_date.month) + month)%12)

    if mm == 0:
        yyyy -= 1
        mm = 12
    return given_date.replace(year=yyyy, month=mm)


if __name__ == "__main__":
    today = date.today()
    print(today)

    for mm in [-12, -1, 0, 1, 2, 12, 20 ]:
        next_date = next_month(today, mm)
        print(next_date)

    def addDay(date, number):
        for i in range(number)
            #try to add a day
            try:
                date = date.replace(day = date.day + 1)
            #in case it's impossible ex:january 32nd add a month and restart at day 1
            except:
                #add month part
                try:
                    date = date.replace(month = date.month +1, day = 1)
                except:
                    date = date.replace(year = date.year +1, month = 1, day = 1)

写给还在读这篇文章的人。我认为这段代码更加清晰，特别是与使用模(%)的代码相比。
