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?


当前回答

这是可运行的代码

$date1 = date_create('2007-03-24');
$date2 = date_create('2009-06-26');
$diff1 = date_diff($date1,$date2);
$daysdiff = $diff1->format("%R%a");
$daysdiff = abs($daysdiff);

其他回答

DateInterval很好,但它有几个注意事项:

仅适用于PHP 5.3+(但这真的不再是一个好借口)仅支持年、月、日、小时、分钟和秒(无周)它计算上述所有+天的差异(你不能只计算月的差异)

为了克服这个问题,我编写了以下代码(由@enobrev答案改进而来):

function date_dif($since, $until, $keys = 'year|month|week|day|hour|minute|second')
{
    $date = array_map('strtotime', array($since, $until));

    if ((count($date = array_filter($date, 'is_int')) == 2) && (sort($date) === true))
    {
        $result = array_fill_keys(explode('|', $keys), 0);

        foreach (preg_grep('~^(?:year|month)~i', $result) as $key => $value)
        {
            while ($date[1] >= strtotime(sprintf('+%u %s', $value + 1, $key), $date[0]))
            {
                ++$value;
            }

            $date[0] = strtotime(sprintf('+%u %s', $result[$key] = $value, $key), $date[0]);
        }

        foreach (preg_grep('~^(?:year|month)~i', $result, PREG_GREP_INVERT) as $key => $value)
        {
            if (($value = intval(abs($date[0] - $date[1]) / strtotime(sprintf('%u %s', 1, $key), 0))) > 0)
            {
                $date[0] = strtotime(sprintf('+%u %s', $result[$key] = $value, $key), $date[0]);
            }
        }

        return $result;
    }

    return false;
}

它运行两个循环;第一个算法通过暴力强制处理相对间隔(年和月),第二个算法通过简单的算法计算额外的绝对间隔(因此速度更快):

echo humanize(date_dif('2007-03-24', '2009-07-31', 'second')); // 74300400 seconds
echo humanize(date_dif('2007-03-24', '2009-07-31', 'minute|second')); // 1238400 minutes, 0 seconds
echo humanize(date_dif('2007-03-24', '2009-07-31', 'hour|minute|second')); // 20640 hours, 0 minutes, 0 seconds
echo humanize(date_dif('2007-03-24', '2009-07-31', 'year|day')); // 2 years, 129 days
echo humanize(date_dif('2007-03-24', '2009-07-31', 'year|week')); // 2 years, 18 weeks
echo humanize(date_dif('2007-03-24', '2009-07-31', 'year|week|day')); // 2 years, 18 weeks, 3 days
echo humanize(date_dif('2007-03-24', '2009-07-31')); // 2 years, 4 months, 1 week, 0 days, 0 hours, 0 minutes, 0 seconds

function humanize($array)
{
    $result = array();

    foreach ($array as $key => $value)
    {
        $result[$key] = $value . ' ' . $key;

        if ($value != 1)
        {
            $result[$key] .= 's';
        }
    }

    return implode(', ', $result);
}

简单的功能

function time_difference($time_1, $time_2, $limit = null)
{

    $val_1 = new DateTime($time_1);
    $val_2 = new DateTime($time_2);

    $interval = $val_1->diff($val_2);

    $output = array(
        "year" => $interval->y,
        "month" => $interval->m,
        "day" => $interval->d,
        "hour" => $interval->h,
        "minute" => $interval->i,
        "second" => $interval->s
    );

    $return = "";
    foreach ($output AS $key => $value) {

        if ($value == 1)
            $return .= $value . " " . $key . " ";
        elseif ($value >= 1)
            $return .= $value . " " . $key . "s ";

        if ($key == $limit)
            return trim($return);
    }
    return trim($return);
}

像这样使用

回波时间差($time_1,$time_2,“天”);

将返回2年8个月2天

由于每个人都在发布代码示例,这里有另一个版本。

我想要一个函数来显示从秒到年的差异(仅一个单位)。对于超过1天的时段,我希望它在午夜滚动(周一上午10点到周三上午9点是2天前,而不是1天前)。对于超过一个月的时间段,我希望滚动在当月的同一天(包括30/31天的月份和闰年)。

这就是我想到的:

/**
 * Returns how long ago something happened in the past, showing it
 * as n seconds / minutes / hours / days / weeks / months / years ago.
 *
 * For periods over a day, it rolls over at midnight (so doesn't depend
 * on current time of day), and it correctly accounts for month-lengths
 * and leap-years (months and years rollover on current day of month).
 *
 * $param string $timestamp in DateTime format
 * $return string description of interval
 */
function ago($timestamp)
{
    $then = date_create($timestamp);

    // for anything over 1 day, make it rollover on midnight
    $today = date_create('tomorrow'); // ie end of today
    $diff = date_diff($then, $today);

    if ($diff->y > 0) return $diff->y.' year'.($diff->y>1?'s':'').' ago';
    if ($diff->m > 0) return $diff->m.' month'.($diff->m>1?'s':'').' ago';
    $diffW = floor($diff->d / 7);
    if ($diffW > 0) return $diffW.' week'.($diffW>1?'s':'').' ago';
    if ($diff->d > 1) return $diff->d.' day'.($diff->d>1?'s':'').' ago';

    // for anything less than 1 day, base it off 'now'
    $now = date_create();
    $diff = date_diff($then, $now);

    if ($diff->d > 0) return 'yesterday';
    if ($diff->h > 0) return $diff->h.' hour'.($diff->h>1?'s':'').' ago';
    if ($diff->i > 0) return $diff->i.' minute'.($diff->i>1?'s':'').' ago';
    return $diff->s.' second'.($diff->s==1?'':'s').' ago';
}

我投票支持jurka的答案,因为这是我最喜欢的,但我有一个pre-php.5.3版本。。。

我发现自己在解决一个类似的问题——这就是我最初如何回答这个问题——但只是需要时间上的差异。但我的函数也很好地解决了这个问题,而且我自己的库中没有任何地方可以将它保存在不会丢失和遗忘的地方,所以……希望这对某人有用。

/**
 *
 * @param DateTime $oDate1
 * @param DateTime $oDate2
 * @return array 
 */
function date_diff_array(DateTime $oDate1, DateTime $oDate2) {
    $aIntervals = array(
        'year'   => 0,
        'month'  => 0,
        'week'   => 0,
        'day'    => 0,
        'hour'   => 0,
        'minute' => 0,
        'second' => 0,
    );

    foreach($aIntervals as $sInterval => &$iInterval) {
        while($oDate1 <= $oDate2){ 
            $oDate1->modify('+1 ' . $sInterval);
            if ($oDate1 > $oDate2) {
                $oDate1->modify('-1 ' . $sInterval);
                break;
            } else {
                $iInterval++;
            }
        }
    }

    return $aIntervals;
}

测试:

$oDate = new DateTime();
$oDate->modify('+111402189 seconds');
var_dump($oDate);
var_dump(date_diff_array(new DateTime(), $oDate));

结果是:

object(DateTime)[2]
  public 'date' => string '2014-04-29 18:52:51' (length=19)
  public 'timezone_type' => int 3
  public 'timezone' => string 'America/New_York' (length=16)

array
  'year'   => int 3
  'month'  => int 6
  'week'   => int 1
  'day'    => int 4
  'hour'   => int 9
  'minute' => int 3
  'second' => int 8

我从这里得到了最初的想法,我对其进行了修改以供使用(我希望我的修改也会显示在该页面上)。

通过从$aIntervals数组中删除不需要的间隔(例如“周”),或者添加$aExclude参数,或者在输出字符串时过滤掉它们,可以非常容易地删除它们。

使用此函数

//function Diff between Dates

function dateDifference($date_1 , $date_2 , $differenceFormat = '%a' )
{
    $datetime1 = date_create($date_1);
    $datetime2 = date_create($date_2);

    $interval = date_diff($datetime1, $datetime2);

    return $interval->format($differenceFormat);

}

仅根据需要设置参数$differenceFormat例如,我希望你的年龄在到岁之间,以月和日为单位

dateDifference(日期('Y-m-d'),$date,'%Y%m%d')

或其他格式

dateDifference(日期('Y-m-d'),$date,'%Y-%m-%d')
