I have two fields which store data like 2018-03-26 11:20:35 and 02:25:10(2 hours 25 minutes and 10 seconds) first data is date and time. second one is only time. I want to sum it and finally my result should 2018-03-26 13:45:45
How to do that in php code?
I have tried this way:
<?php
$date = '2018-03-26 11:20:35';
//echo $date;
//echo "<br>";
$hours = '02:25:10'; /* this data dynamic */
$sumTime = strtotime($date) + strtotime($hours);
$new_time = date("Y-m-d H:i:s", $sumTime);
echo $new_time;
Output:
Warning: date() expects parameter 2 to be integer, float given in C:\my-project-path\test.php on line 7
Here's a simple solution, some checks are skipped:
// convert your date to DateTime object
$date = '2018-03-26 11:20:35';
$dt = new DateTime($date);
// convert your period to DateInterval
$hours = '02:25:10'; /* this data dynamic */
$parts = explode(':', $hours);
$interval = new DateInterval('PT' . (int)$parts[0] . 'H' . $parts[1] . 'M' . $parts[2] . 'S');
// Add interval to date
$dt->add($interval);
// Format date as you need
echo $dt->format('Y-m-d H:i:s');
You could create a duration in seconds by comparing today at "00:00:00" and today at $hours. Actually, strtotime($hours) returns the timestamp of today at $hours, so, the addition of the two timestamp don't give the expected result.
If $hours is lesser than 24 hours, you could use:
$date = '2018-03-26 11:20:35';
$hours = '02:25:10';
$d0 = strtotime(date('Y-m-d 00:00:00'));
$d1 = strtotime(date('Y-m-d ').$hours);
$sumTime = strtotime($date) + ($d1 - $d0);
$new_time = date("Y-m-d H:i:s", $sumTime);
echo $new_time;
Outputs:
2018-03-26 13:45:45
You should check DateTime::add:
http://php.net/manual/en/datetime.add.php
http://php.net/manual/en/datetime.examples-arithmetic.php
Example:
<?php
// Convert h:m:s format to PThHmMsS format
sscanf('02:25:10', '%d:%d:%d', $hour, $minute, $second);
$intervalSpec = sprintf('PT%dH%dM%dS', $hour, $minute, $second);
$datetime = new DateTimeImmutable('2018-03-26 11:20:35');
$newDatetime = $datetime->add (new DateInterval($intervalSpec));
echo $newDatetime->format(DateTime::W3C);
It could be done with some simple string manipulation:
$dt = new DateTime("$date UTC");
$modify = preg_replace('/:/', ' hours ', $hours, 1);
$modify = preg_replace('/:/', ' minutes ', $modify, 1);
$modify .= ' seconds';
$dt->modify($modify);
demo
If you have MySQL as your data storage, you could do:
DATE_ADD(field1, INTERVAL field2 HOUR_SECOND)
demo
you can do something like:
$hour = $hours->format('H'); //This way you get a string which contains the hours
$date->modify('+'.$hour.' hour'); //you modify your date adding the hours
I'm assuming you only need the hours, and not minutes and seconds
EDIT:
you can do like that using regexp
$date = new \DateTime('2018-03-26 11:20:35');
$hours ='02:25:10';
preg_match("/^([0-9].*):([0-9].*):([0-9].*)/",$hours,$matches);
$date->modify('+'.$matches[1].' hour');
$date->modify('+'.$matches[2].' minute');
echo $date->modify('+'.$matches[3].' second')->format('Y-m-d H:i:s');
Basically am trying to set a time and a date in PHP then set a time gap which will range between minutes, loop through between a start time and end time echoing something out for each one. Have tried loads of different ways and cant seem to figure a way to set a date and add to it.
This seems the best script I have modified so far:
$minutes = 5;
$endtime = new DateTime('2012-01-01 09:00');
$newendtime = $endtime->format('Y-m-d H:i');
$timedate = new DateTime('2012-01-01 09:00');
while($stamp < $newendtime)
{
$time = new DateTime($timedate);
$time->add(new DateInterval('PT' . $minutes . 'M'));
$timedate = $time->format('Y-m-d H:i');
echo $timedate;
}
$minutes = 5;
$endtime = new DateTime('2012-01-01 09:00');
//modified the start value to get something _before_ the endtime:
$time = new DateTime('2012-01-01 8:00');
$interval = new DateInterval('PT' . $minutes . 'M');
while($time < $endtime){
$time->add($interval);
echo $time->format('Y-m-d H:i');
}
Do everything in seconds, and use php's time(), date(), and mktime functions.
In UNIX Time, dates are stored as the number of seconds since Jan 1, 1970.
You can render UNIX Timestamps with date().
$time = time(); // gets current time
$endtime = mktime(0,0,0, 1, 31, 2012); // set jan 31 # midnight as end time
$interval = 60 * 5; // 300 seconds = 5 minutes
while($time < $endtime){
$time += $interval;
echo date("M jS Y h:i:s a",$time) . "<br>"; // echos time as Jan 17th, 2012 1:04:56 pm
}
date reference:
http://us3.php.net/manual/en/function.date.php (includes superb date format reference too)
mktime reference: http://us2.php.net/mktime
time() only gets the current time, but just for kicks n' giggles: http://us2.php.net/time
And, it's super easy to store in a database!
This function will let you add date to your existing datetime. This will also preserves HH:MM:SS
<?php
function add_date($givendate,$day=0,$mth=0,$yr=0) {
$cd = strtotime($givendate);
$newdate = date('Y-m-d h:i:s', mktime(date('h',$cd),
date('i',$cd), date('s',$cd), date('m',$cd)+$mth,
date('d',$cd)+$day, date('Y',$cd)+$yr));
return $newdate;
}
?>
Usage:
add_date($date,12,0,0);
where $date is your date.
I have a date returned as part of a MySQL query in the form 2010-09-17.
I would like to set the variables $Date2 to $Date5 as follows:
$Date2 = $Date + 1
$Date3 = $Date + 2
etc., so that it returns 2010-09-18, 2010-09-19, etc.
I have tried
date('Y-m-d', strtotime($Date. ' + 1 day'))
but this gives me the date before $Date.
What is the correct way to get my Dates in the format form 'Y-m-d' so that they may be used in another query?
All you have to do is use days instead of day like this:
<?php
$Date = "2010-09-17";
echo date('Y-m-d', strtotime($Date. ' + 1 days'));
echo date('Y-m-d', strtotime($Date. ' + 2 days'));
?>
And it outputs correctly:
2010-09-18
2010-09-19
If you're using PHP 5.3, you can use a DateTime object and its add method:
$Date1 = '2010-09-17';
$date = new DateTime($Date1);
$date->add(new DateInterval('P1D')); // P1D means a period of 1 day
$Date2 = $date->format('Y-m-d');
Take a look at the DateInterval constructor manual page to see how to construct other periods to add to your date (2 days would be 'P2D', 3 would be 'P3D', and so on).
Without PHP 5.3, you should be able to use strtotime the way you did it (I've tested it and it works in both 5.1.6 and 5.2.10):
$Date1 = '2010-09-17';
$Date2 = date('Y-m-d', strtotime($Date1 . " + 1 day"));
// var_dump($Date2) returns "2010-09-18"
From PHP 5.2 on you can use modify with a DateTime object:
http://php.net/manual/en/datetime.modify.php
$Date1 = '2010-09-17';
$date = new DateTime($Date1);
$date->modify('+1 day');
$Date2 = $date->format('Y-m-d');
Be careful when adding months... (and to a lesser extent, years)
Here is a small snippet to demonstrate the date modifications:
$date = date("Y-m-d");
//increment 2 days
$mod_date = strtotime($date."+ 2 days");
echo date("Y-m-d",$mod_date) . "\n";
//decrement 2 days
$mod_date = strtotime($date."- 2 days");
echo date("Y-m-d",$mod_date) . "\n";
//increment 1 month
$mod_date = strtotime($date."+ 1 months");
echo date("Y-m-d",$mod_date) . "\n";
//increment 1 year
$mod_date = strtotime($date."+ 1 years");
echo date("Y-m-d",$mod_date) . "\n";
You can also use the following format
strtotime("-3 days", time());
strtotime("+1 day", strtotime($date));
You can stack changes this way:
strtotime("+1 day", strtotime("+1 year", strtotime($date)));
Note the difference between this approach and the one in other answers: instead of concatenating the values +1 day and <timestamp>, you can just pass in the timestamp as the second parameter of strtotime.
Here has an easy way to solve this.
<?php
$date = "2015-11-17";
echo date('Y-m-d', strtotime($date. ' + 5 days'));
?>
Output will be:
2015-11-22
Solution has found from here - How to Add Days to Date in PHP
Using a variable for Number of days
$myDate = "2014-01-16";
$nDays = 16;
$newDate = strtotime($myDate . '+ '.$nDays.' days');
echo new Date('d/m/Y', $newDate); //format new date
Here is the simplest solution to your query
$date=date_create("2013-03-15"); // or your date string
date_add($date,date_interval_create_from_date_string("40 days"));// add number of days
echo date_format($date,"Y-m-d"); //set date format of the result
This works. You can use it for days, months, seconds and reformat the date as you require
public function reformatDate($date, $difference_str, $return_format)
{
return date($return_format, strtotime($date. ' ' . $difference_str));
}
Examples
echo $this->reformatDate('2021-10-8', '+ 15 minutes', 'Y-m-d H:i:s');
echo $this->reformatDate('2021-10-8', '+ 1 hour', 'Y-m-d H:i:s');
echo $this->reformatDate('2021-10-8', '+ 1 day', 'Y-m-d H:i:s');
To add a certain number of days to a date, use the following function.
function add_days_to_date($date1,$number_of_days){
/*
//$date1 is a string representing a date such as '2021-04-17 14:34:05'
//$date1 =date('Y-m-d H:i:s');
// function date without a secrod argument returns the current datetime as a string in the specified format
*/
$str =' + '. $number_of_days. ' days';
$date2= date('Y-m-d H:i:s', strtotime($date1. $str));
return $date2; //$date2 is a string
}//[end function]
All have to use bellow code:
$nday = time() + ( 24 * 60 * 60);
echo 'Now: '. date('Y-m-d') ."\n";
echo 'Next Day: '. date('Y-m-d', $nday) ."\n";
Another option is to convert your date string into a timestamp and then add the appropriate number of seconds to it.
$datetime_string = '2022-05-12 12:56:45';
$days_to_add = 1;
$new_timestamp = strtotime($datetime_string) + ($days_to_add * 60 * 60 * 24);
After which, you can use one of PHP's various date functions to turn the timestamp into a date object or format it into a human-readable string.
$new_datetime_string = date('Y-m-d H:i:s', $new_timestamp);
Given a date MM-dd-yyyy format, can someone help me get the first day of the week?
Here is what I am using...
$day = date('w');
$week_start = date('m-d-Y', strtotime('-'.$day.' days'));
$week_end = date('m-d-Y', strtotime('+'.(6-$day).' days'));
$day contains a number from 0 to 6 representing the day of the week (Sunday = 0, Monday = 1, etc.).
$week_start contains the date for Sunday of the current week as mm-dd-yyyy.
$week_end contains the date for the Saturday of the current week as mm-dd-yyyy.
Very simple to use strtotime function:
echo date("Y-m-d", strtotime('monday this week')), "\n";
echo date("Y-m-d", strtotime('sunday this week')), "\n";

strtotime('this week', time());
Replace time(). Next sunday/last monday methods won't work when the current day is sunday/monday.
Keep it simple :
<?php
$dateTime = new \DateTime('2020-04-01');
$monday = clone $dateTime->modify(('Sunday' == $dateTime->format('l')) ? 'Monday last week' : 'Monday this week');
$sunday = clone $dateTime->modify('Sunday this week');
?>
Source : PHP manual
NB: as some user commented the $dateTime value will be modified.
$givenday = date("w", mktime(0, 0, 0, MM, dd, yyyy));
This gives you the day of the week of the given date itself where 0 = Sunday and 6 = Saturday. From there you can simply calculate backwards to the day you want.
This question needs a good DateTime answer:-
function firstDayOfWeek($date)
{
$day = DateTime::createFromFormat('m-d-Y', $date);
$day->setISODate((int)$day->format('o'), (int)$day->format('W'), 1);
return $day->format('m-d-Y');
}
var_dump(firstDayOfWeek('06-13-2013'));
Output:-
string '06-10-2013' (length=10)
This will deal with year boundaries and leap years.
EDIT: the below link is no longer running on the version of PHP stated. It is running on PHP 5.6 which improves the reliability of strtotime, but isn't perfect! The results in the table are live results from PHP 5.6.
For what it's worth, here is a breakdown of the wonky behavior of strtotime when determining a consistent frame of reference:
http://gamereplays.org/reference/strtotime.php
Basically only these strings will reliably give you the same date, no matter what day of the week you're currently on when you call them:
strtotime("next monday");
strtotime("this sunday");
strtotime("last sunday");
Assuming Monday as the first day of the week, this works:
echo date("M-d-y", strtotime('last monday', strtotime('next week', time())));
The following code should work with any custom date, just uses the desired date format.
$custom_date = strtotime( date('d-m-Y', strtotime('31-07-2012')) );
$week_start = date('d-m-Y', strtotime('this week last monday', $custom_date));
$week_end = date('d-m-Y', strtotime('this week next sunday', $custom_date));
echo '<br>Start: '. $week_start;
echo '<br>End: '. $week_end;
I tested the code with PHP 5.2.17 Results:
Start: 30-07-2012
End: 05-08-2012
How about this?
$first_day_of_week = date('m-d-Y', strtotime('Last Monday', time()));
$last_day_of_week = date('m-d-Y', strtotime('Next Sunday', time()));
This is what I am using to get the first and last day of the week from any date.
In this case, monday is the first day of the week...
$date = date('Y-m-d') // you can put any date you want
$nbDay = date('N', strtotime($date));
$monday = new DateTime($date);
$sunday = new DateTime($date);
$monday->modify('-'.($nbDay-1).' days');
$sunday->modify('+'.(7-$nbDay).' days');
Here I am considering Sunday as first & Saturday as last day of the week.
$m = strtotime('06-08-2012');
$today = date('l', $m);
$custom_date = strtotime( date('d-m-Y', $m) );
if ($today == 'Sunday') {
$week_start = date("d-m-Y", $m);
} else {
$week_start = date('d-m-Y', strtotime('this week last sunday', $custom_date));
}
if ($today == 'Saturday') {
$week_end = date("d-m-Y", $m);
} else {
$week_end = date('d-m-Y', strtotime('this week next saturday', $custom_date));
}
echo '<br>Start: '. $week_start;
echo '<br>End: '. $week_end;
Output :
Start: 05-08-2012
End: 11-08-2012
How about this?
$day_of_week = date('N', strtotime($string_date));
$week_first_day = date('Y-m-d', strtotime($string_date . " - " . ($day_of_week - 1) . " days"));
$week_last_day = date('Y-m-d', strtotime($string_date . " + " . (7 - $day_of_week) . " days"));
Just use date($format, strtotime($date,' LAST SUNDAY + 1 DAY'));
Try this:
function week_start_date($wk_num, $yr, $first = 1, $format = 'F d, Y')
{
$wk_ts = strtotime('+' . $wk_num . ' weeks', strtotime($yr . '0101'));
$mon_ts = strtotime('-' . date('w', $wk_ts) + $first . ' days', $wk_ts);
return date($format, $mon_ts);
}
$sStartDate = week_start_date($week_number, $year);
$sEndDate = date('F d, Y', strtotime('+6 days', strtotime($sStartDate)));
(from this forum thread)
This is the shortest and most readable solution I found:
<?php
$weekstart = strtotime('monday this week');
$weekstop = strtotime('sunday this week 23:59:59');
//echo date('d.m.Y H:i:s', $weekstart) .' - '. date('d.m.Y H:i:s', $weekstop);
?>
strtotime is faster than new DateTime()->getTimestamp().
$monday = date('d-m-Y',strtotime('last monday',strtotime('next monday',strtotime($date))));
You have to get next monday first then get the 'last monday' of next monday. So if the given date is monday it will return the same date not last week monday.
$string_date = '2019-07-31';
echo $day_of_week = date('N', strtotime($string_date));
echo $week_first_day = date('Y-m-d', strtotime($string_date . " - " . ($day_of_week - 1) . " days"));
echo $week_last_day = date('Y-m-d', strtotime($string_date . " + " . (7 - $day_of_week) . " days"));
Given PHP version pre 5.3 following function gives you a first day of the week of given date (in this case - Sunday, 2013-02-03):
<?php
function startOfWeek($aDate){
$d=strtotime($aDate);
return strtotime(date('Y-m-d',$d).' - '.date("w",$d).' days');
}
echo(date('Y-m-d',startOfWeek("2013-02-07")).'
');
?>
$today_day = date('D'); //Or add your own date
$start_of_week = date('Ymd');
$end_of_week = date('Ymd');
if($today_day != "Mon")
$start_of_week = date('Ymd', strtotime("last monday"));
if($today_day != "Sun")
$end_of_week = date('Ymd', strtotime("next sunday"));
If you want Monday as the start of your week, do this:
$date = '2015-10-12';
$day = date('N', strtotime($date));
$week_start = date('Y-m-d', strtotime('-'.($day-1).' days', strtotime($date)));
$week_end = date('Y-m-d', strtotime('+'.(7-$day).' days', strtotime($date)));
A smart way of doing this is to let PHP handle timezone differences and Daylight Savings Time (DST). Let me show you how to do this.
This function will generate all days from Monday until Friday, inclusive (handy for generating work week days):
class DateTimeUtilities {
public static function getPeriodFromMondayUntilFriday($offset = 'now') {
$now = new \DateTimeImmutable($offset, new \DateTimeZone('UTC'));
$today = $now->setTime(0, 0, 1);
$daysFromMonday = $today->format('N') - 1;
$monday = $today->sub(new \DateInterval(sprintf('P%dD', $daysFromMonday)));
$saturday = $monday->add(new \DateInterval('P5D'));
return new \DatePeriod($monday, new \DateInterval('P1D'), $saturday);
}
}
foreach (DateTimeUtilities::getPeriodFromMondayUntilFriday() as $day) {
print $day->format('c');
print PHP_EOL;
}
This will return datetimes Monday-Friday for current week. To do the same for an arbitrary date, pass a date as a parameter to DateTimeUtilities ::getPeriodFromMondayUntilFriday, thus:
foreach (DateTimeUtilities::getPeriodFromMondayUntilFriday('2017-01-02T15:05:21+00:00') as $day) {
print $day->format('c');
print PHP_EOL;
}
//prints
//2017-01-02T00:00:01+00:00
//2017-01-03T00:00:01+00:00
//2017-01-04T00:00:01+00:00
//2017-01-05T00:00:01+00:00
//2017-01-06T00:00:01+00:00
Only interested in Monday, as the OP asked?
$monday = DateTimeUtilities::getPeriodFromMondayUntilFriday('2017-01-02T15:05:21+00:00')->getStartDate()->format('c');
print $monday;
// prints
//2017-01-02T00:00:01+00:00
You parse the date using strptime() and use date() on the result:
date('N', strptime('%m-%d-%g', $dateString));
<?php
/* PHP 5.3.0 */
date_default_timezone_set('America/Denver'); //Set apprpriate timezone
$start_date = strtotime('2009-12-15'); //Set start date
//Today's date if $start_date is a Sunday, otherwise date of previous Sunday
$today_or_previous_sunday = mktime(0, 0, 0, date('m', $start_date), date('d', $start_date), date('Y', $start_date)) - ((date("w", $start_date) ==0) ? 0 : (86400 * date("w", $start_date)));
//prints 12-13-2009 (month-day-year)
echo date('m-d-Y', $today_or_previous_sunday);
?>
(Note: MM, dd and yyyy in the Question are not standard php date format syntax - I can't be sure what is meant, so I set the $start_date with ISO year-month-day)
I've come against this question a few times and always surprised the date functions don't make this easier or clearer. Here's my solution for PHP5 that uses the DateTime class:
/**
* #param DateTime $date A given date
* #param int $firstDay 0-6, Sun-Sat respectively
* #return DateTime
*/
function getFirstDayOfWeek(DateTime $date, $firstDay = 0) {
$offset = 7 - $firstDay;
$ret = clone $date;
$ret->modify(-(($date->format('w') + $offset) % 7) . 'days');
return $ret;
}
Necessary to clone to avoid altering the original date.
Another way to do it....
$year = '2014';
$month = '02';
$day = '26';
$date = DateTime::createFromFormat('Y-m-d H:i:s', $year . '-' . $month . '-' . $day . '00:00:00');
$day = date('w', $date->getTimestamp());
// 0=Sunday 6=Saturday
if($day!=0){
$newdate = $date->getTimestamp() - $day * 86400; //86400 seconds in a day
// Look for DST change
if($old = date('I', $date->getTimestamp()) != $new = date('I', $newdate)){
if($old == 0){
$newdate -= 3600; //3600 seconds in an hour
} else {
$newdate += 3600;
}
}
$date->setTimestamp($newdate);
}
echo $date->format('D Y-m-d H:i:s');
The easiest way to get first day(Monday) of current week is:
strtotime("next Monday") - 604800;
where 604800 - is count of seconds in 1 week(60*60*24*7).
This code get next Monday and decrease it for 1 week. This code will work well in any day of week. Even if today is Monday.
I found this quite frustrating given that my timezone is Australian and that strtotime() hates UK dates.
If the current day is a Sunday, then strtotime("monday this week") will return the day after.
To overcome this:
Caution: This is only valid for Australian/UK dates
$startOfWeek = (date('l') == 'Monday') ? date('d/m/Y 00:00') : date('d/m/Y', strtotime("last monday 00:00"));
$endOfWeek = (date('l') == 'Sunday') ? date('d/m/Y 23:59:59') : date('d/m/Y', strtotime("sunday 23:59:59"));
Here's a one liner for the first day of last week, and the last day of last week as a DateTime object.
$firstDay = (new \DateTime())->modify(sprintf('-%d day', date('w') + 7))
->setTime(0, 0, 0);
$lastDay = (new \DateTime())->modify(sprintf('-%d day', date('w') + 1))
->setTime(23, 59, 59);
Just to note that timestamp math can also be a solution. If you have in mind that 01.jan 1970 was a Thursday, then start of a week for any given date can be calculated with:
function weekStart($dts)
{ $res = $dts - ($dts+date('Z',$dts)+259200)%604800;
return $res + 3600*(date('I',$dts)-date('I',$res));
}
It is predictable for any timestamp and php version, using date-func ('Z', 'I') only for timezone and daylight-saving offsets. And it produces same results as:
strtotime(date('Y-m-d', $dts).' - '.(date('N', $dts)-1.' days');
and with (the best and the most elegant) mentioned:
strtotime('monday this week', $dts);
