How to exclude weekends between two date ranges - php

Question

I have a FromDate and ToDate and days interval between them.
Now i want to get all date excluding weekends
If there is any weekends between my FromDate and ToDate,then this date will be increment by 2 days saturday and sunday.
In below example, i have calculated all date between 7/27/2018 and 8/27/2018 with 5 days interval between them,
public function testdate(){
$date_from = new \DateTime("7/27/2018");
$date_to = new \DateTime("8/27/2018");
$interval = new \DateInterval("P5D");
$dates = new \DatePeriod($date_from, $interval, $date_to);
$out = array();
if (!empty($dates)) {
foreach($dates as $dt) {
$out[] = array(
'month_year' => $dt->format('d/m/Y')
);
}
}
'<pre>';
//$out = array_reverse($out);
echo print_r($out);
'</pre>';
exit;
}
Expected output
Array
(
[0] => Array
(
[month_year] => 27/07/2018
)
[1] => Array
(
[month_year] => 02/08/2018
)
[2] => Array
(
[month_year] => 08/08/2018
)
[3] => Array
(
[month_year] => 14/08/2018
)
[4] => Array
(
[month_year] => 20/08/2018
)
[5] => Array
(
[month_year] => 27/08/2018
)
)
In above example, after 20/08/2018, next date will be 26/08/2018 but 26/08/2018 is sunday, so we exclude this sunday by 1 day and next date is now
27/08/2018.
If any occurence of date after calculating interval in between saturday and sunday then skip this weekend by 1 or 2days.

Answer 1

$year = date('Y');
$month = date('n');
$weekend_days = array_filter($allDays[$year][$month], function($d) {
return (date('N', strtotime(date("Y-m-$d"))) >= 6);
});
$allDays[$year][$month] = array_diff($allDays[$year][$month], $weekend_days);
print_r($allDays);
