I'm trying make a function to return the exact date of previous months.
That is a example of my code:
// Dates in TimeStamp
$ts_now = strtotime('now');
$ts_month1 = strtotime("-1 month", $ts_now);
$ts_month2 = strtotime("-2 month", $ts_now);
$ts_month3 = strtotime("-3 month", $ts_now);
// Dates Formated
$date_now = date('Y-m-d', $ts_now);
$date_month1 = date('Y-m-d', $ts_month1);
$date_month2 = date('Y-m-d', $ts_month2);
$date_month3 = date('Y-m-d', $ts_month3);
//Output
echo $date_now; //2020-04-30
echo $date_month1; //2020-03-30
echo $date_month2; //2020-03-01
echo $date_month3; //2020-01-30
The problem is in $date_month2 that represents February, the output is 2020-03-01 instead 2020-02-29 and I suppose that problem will happen in months who have 30 days when present date have 31 days.
What is the best way to resolve that?
As you can see working with the end of the month can be problematic because of how PHP works with dates. Your best bet is to go back to the beginning of the month, do your date math (i.e. go backwards in time), and then go to the date you want. That way you can check to see if the current day is greater than the number of days in month. If so, use the last day of the month instead.
function getMonthsAgo(int $n): string {
$date = new DateTime();
$day = $date->format('j');
$date->modify('first day of this month')->modify('-' . $n . ' months');
if ($day > $date->format('t')) {
$day = $date->format('t');
}
$date->setDate($date->format('Y'), $date->format('m'), $day);
return $date->format('Y-m-d');
}
// Dates Formated
$date_now = date('Y-m-d');
$date_month1 = getMonthsAgo(1);
$date_month2 = getMonthsAgo(2);
$date_month3 = getMonthsAgo(3);
//Output
echo $date_now;
echo $date_month1;
echo $date_month2;
echo $date_month3;
Output:
2020-04-30
2020-03-30
2020-02-29
2020-01-30
I want dates like current week dates from Monday to Wednesday and last week dates from last week Monday to last week Wednesday
I have tried this code
function last_to_last_week_date(){
$previous_week = strtotime("-2 week +1 day");
$start_week = strtotime("last monday",$previous_week);
$end_week = strtotime("next sunday",$start_week);
$start_week = date("Y-m-d",$start_week);
$end_week = date("Y-m-d",$end_week);
return $start_week.' '.$end_week ;
}
function last_week_date(){
$previous_week = strtotime("-1 week +1 day");
$start_week = strtotime("last monday",$previous_week);
$end_week = strtotime("next sunday",$start_week);
$start_week = date("Y-m-d",$start_week);
$end_week = date("Y-m-d",$end_week);
return $start_week.' '.$end_week ;
}
but with this, I have received last week dates and last to last week dates
can anybody help me with this
You can simply fix 2 rows in your code:
$end_week = strtotime("next wednesday",$start_week); // <-- "next wednesday"
And for the current dates:
$previous_week = strtotime("+1 day");
Demo
Output:
2020-01-20 2020-01-22
2020-01-27 2020-01-29
DRY
You can simplify your code. Use one method in each of two:
function optimDate($prev_w){
$start_week = strtotime("last monday",$prev_w);
$end_week = strtotime("next wednesday",$start_week);
$start_week = date("Y-m-d",$start_week);
$end_week = date("Y-m-d",$end_week);
return $start_week.' '.$end_week ;
}
And these two method become like
function last_week_date(){
return optimDate(strtotime("-1 week +1 day"));
}
function curr_week_date(){
return optimDate(strtotime("+1 days"));
}
Demo
In fact, this also could be optimized.
Here a simple code of
date to week_number of year and now. How can I get start_date and end_date of week_number
$date_string = "2012-12-30";
echo "Weeknummer: " . date("W", strtotime($date_string));
There is many ways to do it, here is one.
I use "N" of date to determine what day the selected day is and use strtotimes way of understanding simple text to find previous or next Monday/Sunday.
$date_string = "2018-01-27";
$w =date("W", strtotime($date_string));
$N =date("N", strtotime($date_string));
If($N == 1){ // if monday
$monday = $date_string;
$sunday = date("Y-m-d", strtotime("next Sunday $date_string"));
}Elseif($N ==7){ // if sunday
$monday = date("Y-m-d", strtotime("previous Monday $date_string"));
$sunday = $date_string;
}Else{// any other weekday
$monday = date("Y-m-d", strtotime("previous Monday $date_string"));
$sunday = date("Y-m-d", strtotime("next Sunday $date_string"));
}
echo "Weeknummer: $w.\nMonday: $monday.\nSunday: $sunday.";
Output:
Weeknummer: 52.
Monday: 2012-12-24.
Sunday: 2012-12-30.

You can use this:
<?php
$date_string = "2012-12-30";
$weekNumber = date("W", strtotime($date_string));
echo "Weeknummer: ".$weekNumber;
echo '</br>';
// get the year
$year = date("Y", strtotime($date_string));
// set the date string for the week number
$dateWeek = $year.'-W'.$weekNumber;
// increase the weekNumber to the next
$weekNumber = intval($weekNumber);
$weekNumber += 1;
// if it is lower than 10 add preceeding 0
if($weekNumber < 10) $weekNumber = '0'.$weekNumber;
// set the date string for the next week number
$dateWeekNext = $year.'-W'.$weekNumber;
echo '</br>';
// get the first day of the week
echo date('Y-m-d', strtotime($dateWeek));
echo '</br>';
// get the day before the first day of the next week
echo date('Y-m-d', strtotime($dateWeekNext . ' -1 day'));
?>
This outputs:
Weeknummer: 52
2012-12-24
2012-12-30
When i have current date is in "31/12/2017". I need to find date of after 2 months that means its February. When its february i need to get as "29/2/2018". But When we use below code i got "03/03/2018". Can you please help me to solve this task,
Here i added my PHP code,
$xmasDay = new DateTime('2017-12-31 + 2 month');
echo $xmasDay->format('Y-m-d');
please try this
<?php
function add_month($date_str, $months)
{
$date = new DateTime($date_str);
// We extract the day of the month as $start_day
$start_day = $date->format('j');
// We add 1 month to the given date
$date->modify("+{$months} month");
// We extract the day of the month again so we can compare
$end_day = $date->format('j');
if ($start_day != $end_day)
{
// The day of the month isn't the same anymore, so we correct the date
$date->modify('last day of last month');
}
return $date->format('Y-m-d');
}
$result = add_month('2017-12-31', 2);
echo $result
calculate from first of the month, then use date t
$orginal = '2017-12-31';
$orginal = explode('-', $orginal);
$originalDate = strtotime($orginal[0] . '-' . $orginal[1] . '-01 00:00:00');
$newDate = strtotime('+2 month', $originalDate);
echo date('Y-m-t', $newDate);
// or
$date = new DateTime();
$date->setTimestamp($newDate);
echo $date->format('Y-m-t');
how can I get last week' date range in php ?
see my codes bellow:
<?php
function get_last_week_dates(){
// how can i get the date range last week ?
// ex: today is 2014-2-8
// the week date range of last week should be '2014-1-26 ~ 2014-2-1'
}
?>
You can use strtotime()
$previous_week = strtotime("-1 week +1 day");
$start_week = strtotime("last sunday midnight",$previous_week);
$end_week = strtotime("next saturday",$start_week);
$start_week = date("Y-m-d",$start_week);
$end_week = date("Y-m-d",$end_week);
echo $start_week.' '.$end_week ;
UPDATE
Changed the code to handle sunday. If the current day is sunday then - 1 week will be previous sunday and again getting previous sunday for that will go the one week back.
$previous_week = strtotime("-1 week +1 day");
In addition if we need to find the current week and next week date
range we can do as
Current week -
$d = strtotime("today");
$start_week = strtotime("last sunday midnight",$d);
$end_week = strtotime("next saturday",$d);
$start = date("Y-m-d",$start_week);
$end = date("Y-m-d",$end_week);
Next Week -
$d = strtotime("+1 week -1 day");
$start_week = strtotime("last sunday midnight",$d);
$end_week = strtotime("next saturday",$d);
$start = date("Y-m-d",$start_week);
$end = date("Y-m-d",$end_week);
Simply use
date("m/d/Y", strtotime("last week monday"));
date("m/d/Y", strtotime("last week sunday"));
It will give the date of Last week's Monday and Sunday.
you need you use strtotime function for this
<center>
<?php
function get_last_week_dates()
{
// how can i get the date range last week ?
// ex: today is 2014-2-8
// the week date range of last week should be '2014-1-26 ~ 2014-2-1'
$startdate = "last monday";
if (date('N') !== '1')
{
// it's not Monday today
$startdate .= " last week";
}
echo "<br />";
$day = strtotime($startdate);
echo date('r', $day);
echo "<br />";
$sunday = strtotime('next monday', $day) - 1;
echo date('r', $sunday);
}
get_last_week_dates();
?>
</center>
Well just for the fun of trying to solve this:
date_default_timezone_set('UTC');
$firstDayOfLastWeek = mktime(0,0,0,date("m"),date("d")-date("w")-7);
$lastDayOfLastWeek = mktime(0,0,0,date("m"),date("d")-date("w")-1);
echo("Last week began on: ".date("d.m.Y",$firstDayOfLastWeek));
echo("<br>");
echo("Last week ended on: ".date("d.m.Y",$lastDayOfLastWeek));
This should do the trick
$startWeek = date('Y-m-d',strtotime("Sunday Last Week"));
$endWeek = date('Y-m-d',strtotime("Sunday This Week"));
this would not work if ran on a Monday. It would get last Sunday (the day before) to the next Sunday. So using Abhik Chakraborty's method with the above:
$startTime = strtotime("last sunday midnight",$previous_week);
$endTime = strtotime("next sunday midnight",$startTime);
$startDate = date('Y-m-d 00:00:00',$startTime);
$endDate = date('Y-m-d 23:59:59',$endTime);
This will now give
start = 2014-08-10 00:00:00
endDate = 2014-08-17 23:59:59
I know this is old but here's a much more succinct way of doing it:
$startDate = date("m/d/y", strtotime(date("w") ? "2 sundays ago" : "last sunday"));
$endDate = date("m/d/y", strtotime("last saturday"));
echo $startDate . " - " . $endDate
This one will produce the proper result and handles the Monday issue
<?php
$monday = strtotime("last monday");
$monday = date('W', $monday)==date('W') ? $monday-7*86400 : $monday;
$sunday = strtotime(date("Y-m-d",$monday)." +6 days");
$this_week_sd = date("Y-m-d",$monday);
$this_week_ed = date("Y-m-d",$sunday);
echo "Last week range from $this_week_sd to $this_week_ed ";
?>
Most of those other solutions offered were off by one day.
If you want Sunday to Saturday for last week, this is the way to do it.
$start = date("Y-m-d",strtotime("last sunday",strtotime("-1 week")));
$end = date("Y-m-d",strtotime("saturday",strtotime("-1 week")));
echo $start. " to ".$end;
Carbon
$startOfTheWeek = Carbon::now()->subWeek(1)->startOfWeek();
$endOfTheWeek = Carbon::now()->subWeek(1)->endOfWeek();
From a specific date
$startOfTheWeek = Carbon::parse('2020-03-02')->subWeek(1)->startOfWeek();
$endOfTheWeek = Carbon::parse('2020-03-02')->subWeek(1)->endOfWeek();
Considering the week starts at Monday and ends at Sunday.
You can do this way.
First get the current timestamp and subtract the no.of days you want.
$curTime = time();
echo date("Y-m-d",$curTime);
echo "<br />";
echo date("Y-m-d",($curTime-(60*60*24*7)));
$lastWeekStartTime = strtotime("last sunday",strtotime("-1 week"));
$lastWeekEndTime = strtotime("this sunday",strtotime("-1 week"));
$lastWeekStart = date("Y-m-d",$lastWeekStartTime);
$lastWeekEnd = date("Y-m-d",$lastWeekEndTime);
In order to find the last week start date and end date you can follow up this code for doing it so.
It works on all intervals to find the date interval.
$Current = Date('N');
$DaysToSunday = 7 - $Current;
$DaysFromMonday = $Current - 1;
$Sunday = Date('d/m/y', strtotime("+ {$DaysToSunday} Days"));
$Monday = Date('d/m/y', strtotime("- {$DaysFromMonday} Days"));
If so you need to change it with the datatime() you can perform this function.
$date = new DateTime();
$weekday = $date->format('w');
$diff = 7 + ($weekday == 0 ? 6 : $weekday - 1); // Monday=0, Sunday=6
$date->modify("-$diff day");
echo $date->format('Y-m-d') . ' - ';
$date->modify('+6 day');
echo $date->format('Y-m-d');
Using Functions:
If you want to find the last week range with the help of the functions you can preform like this.
Function:
// returns last week's range
function last_week_range($date) {
$ts = strtotime("$date - 7 days");
$start = (date('w', $ts) == 0) ? $ts : strtotime('last sunday', $ts);
return array(
date('Y-m-d', $start),
date('Y-m-d', strtotime('next saturday', $start))
);
}
Usage:
$today=date();
print_r(last_week_range($today));
All the above functions that has been given will return the last week range irrespective of the start day of the week..
