我有两个表格日期:

Start Date: 2007-03-24 
End Date: 2009-06-26

现在我需要通过以下形式找到这两者之间的区别:

2 years, 3 months and 2 days

如何在PHP中执行此操作?

查看以下链接。这是迄今为止我找到的最好的答案

function dateDiff ($d1, $d2) {

    // Return the number of days between the two dates:    
    return round(abs(strtotime($d1) - strtotime($d2))/86400);

} // end function dateDiff

当你通过日期参数。函数使用PHP ABS()绝对值始终返回正数作为两者之间的天数日期。请记住,两个日期之间的天数不是包括两个日期。因此,如果您正在寻找天数由输入日期之间的所有日期表示,您需要向该函数的结果添加一(1)。例如,差异(由上述函数返回)2013-02-09和2013-02-14之间的值为5。但天数或日期范围2013-02-09-2013-02-14表示的日期为6。

$date1 = "2008-11-01 22:45:00"; 

$date2 = "2009-12-04 13:44:01"; 

$diff = abs(strtotime($date2) - strtotime($date1)); 

$years   = floor($diff / (365*60*60*24)); 
$months  = floor(($diff - $years * 365*60*60*24) / (30*60*60*24)); 
$days    = floor(($diff - $years * 365*60*60*24 - $months*30*60*60*24)/ (60*60*24));

$hours   = floor(($diff - $years * 365*60*60*24 - $months*30*60*60*24 - $days*60*60*24)/ (60*60)); 

$minuts  = floor(($diff - $years * 365*60*60*24 - $months*30*60*60*24 - $days*60*60*24 - $hours*60*60)/ 60); 

$seconds = floor(($diff - $years * 365*60*60*24 - $months*30*60*60*24 - $days*60*60*24 - $hours*60*60 - $minuts*60)); 

printf("%d years, %d months, %d days, %d hours, %d minuts\n, %d seconds\n", $years, $months, $days, $hours, $minuts, $seconds); 
// If you just want to see the year difference then use this function.
// Using the logic I've created you may also create month and day difference
// which I did not provide here so you may have the efforts to use your brain.

$date1='2009-01-01';
$date2='2010-01-01';
echo getYearDifference ($date1,$date2);
function getYearDifference($date1=strtotime($date1),$date2=strtotime($date2)){
    $year = 0;
    while($date2 > $date1 = strtotime('+1 year', $date1)){
        ++$year;
    }
    return $year;
}

最好的做法是使用PHP的DateTime(和DateInterval)对象。每个日期都封装在DateTime对象中,然后可以在两者之间进行区别:

$first_date = new DateTime("2012-11-30 17:03:30");
$second_date = new DateTime("2012-12-21 00:00:00");

DateTime对象将接受strtotime()的任何格式。如果需要更具体的日期格式,则可以使用DateTime::createFromFormat()创建DateTime对象。

两个对象实例化后,使用DateTime::diff()从另一个对象中减去一个对象。

$difference = $first_date->diff($second_date);

$difference现在保存一个包含差异信息的DateInterval对象。var_dump()如下所示:

object(DateInterval)
  public 'y' => int 0
  public 'm' => int 0
  public 'd' => int 20
  public 'h' => int 6
  public 'i' => int 56
  public 's' => int 30
  public 'invert' => int 0
  public 'days' => int 20

要格式化DateInterval对象,我们需要检查每个值,如果值为0,则将其排除:

/**
 * Format an interval to show all existing components.
 * If the interval doesn't have a time component (years, months, etc)
 * That component won't be displayed.
 *
 * @param DateInterval $interval The interval
 *
 * @return string Formatted interval string.
 */
function format_interval(DateInterval $interval) {
    $result = "";
    if ($interval->y) { $result .= $interval->format("%y years "); }
    if ($interval->m) { $result .= $interval->format("%m months "); }
    if ($interval->d) { $result .= $interval->format("%d days "); }
    if ($interval->h) { $result .= $interval->format("%h hours "); }
    if ($interval->i) { $result .= $interval->format("%i minutes "); }
    if ($interval->s) { $result .= $interval->format("%s seconds "); }

    return $result;
}

现在剩下的就是调用$differenceDateInterval对象上的函数:

echo format_interval($difference);

我们得到了正确的结果:

20天6小时56分30秒

用于实现目标的完整代码:

/**
 * Format an interval to show all existing components.
 * If the interval doesn't have a time component (years, months, etc)
 * That component won't be displayed.
 *
 * @param DateInterval $interval The interval
 *
 * @return string Formatted interval string.
 */
function format_interval(DateInterval $interval) {
    $result = "";
    if ($interval->y) { $result .= $interval->format("%y years "); }
    if ($interval->m) { $result .= $interval->format("%m months "); }
    if ($interval->d) { $result .= $interval->format("%d days "); }
    if ($interval->h) { $result .= $interval->format("%h hours "); }
    if ($interval->i) { $result .= $interval->format("%i minutes "); }
    if ($interval->s) { $result .= $interval->format("%s seconds "); }

    return $result;
}

$first_date = new DateTime("2012-11-30 17:03:30");
$second_date = new DateTime("2012-12-21 00:00:00");

$difference = $first_date->diff($second_date);

echo format_interval($difference);
<?php
    $today = strtotime("2011-02-03 00:00:00");
    $myBirthDate = strtotime("1964-10-30 00:00:00");
    printf("Days since my birthday: ", ($today - $myBirthDate)/60/60/24);
?>
