如果你想用django模板打印在页面中，那么下面的代码就足够了:

{{ birth_date|timesince }}

由于我没有看到正确的实现，我以这种方式重新编码了我的…

    def age_in_years(from_date, to_date=datetime.date.today()):
  if (DEBUG):
    logger.debug("def age_in_years(from_date='%s', to_date='%s')" % (from_date, to_date))

  if (from_date>to_date): # swap when the lower bound is not the lower bound
    logger.debug('Swapping dates ...')
    tmp = from_date
    from_date = to_date
    to_date = tmp

  age_delta = to_date.year - from_date.year
  month_delta = to_date.month - from_date.month
  day_delta = to_date.day - from_date.day

  if (DEBUG):
    logger.debug("Delta's are : %i  / %i / %i " % (age_delta, month_delta, day_delta))

  if (month_delta>0  or (month_delta==0 and day_delta>=0)): 
    return age_delta 

  return (age_delta-1)

如果你出生在2月29日，你就认为自己在2月28日是“18岁”，这是错误的。 交换边界可以省略…这只是我的代码的个人方便:)

from datetime import date

def age(birth_date):
    today = date.today()
    y = today.year - birth_date.year
    if today.month < birth_date.month or today.month == birth_date.month and today.day < birth_date.day:
        y -= 1
    return y

一个比@DannyWAdairs稍微优雅一点的解决方案可能是使用.timetuple()方法[Python-doc]:

from datetime import date

def calculate_age(born):
    today = date.today()
    return today.year - born.year - (today.timetuple()[1:3] < born.timetuple()[1:3])

你可以很容易地使用这个来进一步推广它，将其粒度增加到秒，这样，如果它大于或等于当天的秒数，年龄就会增加，例如born是一个datetime对象:

from datetime import datetime

def calculate_age_with_seconds(born):
    today = datetime.now()
    return today.year - born.year - (today.timetuple()[1:6] < born.timetuple()[1:6])

这对于date或datetime对象都适用。

下面是一个用年、月或日来计算一个人年龄的方法。

假设一个人的出生日期是2012-01-17T00:00:00 因此，他的年龄在2013-01-16T00:00:00将是11个月

或者他出生在2012-12-17T00:00:00， 他的年龄在2013-01-12T00:00:00将是26天

或者他出生在2000-02-29T00:00:00， 他的年龄在2012-02-29T00:00:00将是12岁

您将需要导入datetime。

代码如下:

def get_person_age(date_birth, date_today):

"""
At top level there are three possibilities : Age can be in days or months or years.
For age to be in years there are two cases: Year difference is one or Year difference is more than 1
For age to be in months there are two cases: Year difference is 0 or 1
For age to be in days there are 4 possibilities: Year difference is 1(20-dec-2012 - 2-jan-2013),
                                                 Year difference is 0, Months difference is 0 or 1
"""
years_diff = date_today.year - date_birth.year
months_diff = date_today.month - date_birth.month
days_diff = date_today.day - date_birth.day
age_in_days = (date_today - date_birth).days

age = years_diff
age_string = str(age) + " years"

# age can be in months or days.
if years_diff == 0:
    if months_diff == 0:
        age = age_in_days
        age_string = str(age) + " days"
    elif months_diff == 1:
        if days_diff < 0:
            age = age_in_days
            age_string = str(age) + " days"
        else:
            age = months_diff
            age_string = str(age) + " months"
    else:
        if days_diff < 0:
            age = months_diff - 1
        else:
            age = months_diff
        age_string = str(age) + " months"
# age can be in years, months or days.
elif years_diff == 1:
    if months_diff < 0:
        age = months_diff + 12
        age_string = str(age) + " months" 
        if age == 1:
            if days_diff < 0:
                age = age_in_days
                age_string = str(age) + " days" 
        elif days_diff < 0:
            age = age-1
            age_string = str(age) + " months"
    elif months_diff == 0:
        if days_diff < 0:
            age = 11
            age_string = str(age) + " months"
        else:
            age = 1
            age_string = str(age) + " years"
    else:
        age = 1
        age_string = str(age) + " years"
# The age is guaranteed to be in years.
else:
    if months_diff < 0:
        age = years_diff - 1
    elif months_diff == 0:
        if days_diff < 0:
            age = years_diff - 1
        else:
            age = years_diff
    else:
        age = years_diff
    age_string = str(age) + " years"

if age == 1:
    age_string = age_string.replace("years", "year").replace("months", "month").replace("days", "day")

return age_string

以上代码中使用的一些额外函数是:

def get_todays_date():
    """
    This function returns todays date in proper date object format
    """
    return datetime.now()

And

def get_date_format(str_date):
"""
This function converts string into date type object
"""
str_date = str_date.split("T")[0]
return datetime.strptime(str_date, "%Y-%m-%d")

现在，我们必须为get_date_format()提供像2000-02-29T00:00:00这样的字符串

它将把它转换为日期类型对象，该对象将被提供给get_person_age(date_birth, date_today)。

函数get_person_age(date_birth, date_today)将返回字符串格式的年龄。

扩展了Danny的解决方案，但有各种各样的方法来报告年轻人的年龄(注意，今天是datetime.date(2015,7,17)):

def calculate_age(born):
    '''
        Converts a date of birth (dob) datetime object to years, always rounding down.
        When the age is 80 years or more, just report that the age is 80 years or more.
        When the age is less than 12 years, rounds down to the nearest half year.
        When the age is less than 2 years, reports age in months, rounded down.
        When the age is less than 6 months, reports the age in weeks, rounded down.
        When the age is less than 2 weeks, reports the age in days.
    '''
    today = datetime.date.today()
    age_in_years = today.year - born.year - ((today.month, today.day) < (born.month, born.day))
    months = (today.month - born.month - (today.day < born.day)) %12
    age = today - born
    age_in_days = age.days
    if age_in_years >= 80:
        return 80, 'years or older'
    if age_in_years >= 12:
        return age_in_years, 'years'
    elif age_in_years >= 2:
        half = 'and a half ' if months > 6 else ''
        return age_in_years, '%syears'%half
    elif months >= 6:
        return months, 'months'
    elif age_in_days >= 14:
        return age_in_days/7, 'weeks'
    else:
        return age_in_days, 'days'

示例代码:

print '%d %s' %calculate_age(datetime.date(1933,6,12)) # >=80 years
print '%d %s' %calculate_age(datetime.date(1963,6,12)) # >=12 years
print '%d %s' %calculate_age(datetime.date(2010,6,19)) # >=2 years
print '%d %s' %calculate_age(datetime.date(2010,11,19)) # >=2 years with half
print '%d %s' %calculate_age(datetime.date(2014,11,19)) # >=6 months
print '%d %s' %calculate_age(datetime.date(2015,6,4)) # >=2 weeks
print '%d %s' %calculate_age(datetime.date(2015,7,11)) # days old

80 years or older
52 years
5 years
4 and a half years
7 months
6 weeks
7 days
