PHP Add two hours to a date within given hours using function - php

Question

How would I structure the conditions to add two hours only to dates between 08:30 in the morning until 18:30 of the evening, excluding Saturday and Sunday?
In the case that a time near the border (e.g. 17:30 on Tuesday) is given, the left over time should be added to the beginning of the next "valid" time period.
For example: if the given date was in 17:30 on Tuesday, the two hour addition would result in 9:30 on Wednesday (17:30 + 1 hour = 18:30, 8:30 + the remainder 1 hour = 9:30). Or if the given date was in 17:00 on Friday, the result would be 9:00 on Monday (17:00 Friday + 1.5 hours = 18:30, 8:30 Monday + the remainder .5 hours = 9:00)
I know how to simply add two hours, as follows:
$idate1 = strtotime($_POST['date']);
$time1 = date('Y-m-d G:i', strtotime('+120 minutes', $idate1));
$_POST['due_date'] = $time1;
i have tried this this function and it works great except when i use a date like ( 2013-11-26 12:30 ) he gives me ( 2013-11-27 04:30:00 )
the problem is with 12:30
function addRollover($givenDate, $addtime) {
$starttime = 8.5*60; //Start time in minutes (decimal hours * 60)
$endtime = 18.5*60; //End time in minutes (decimal hours * 60)
$givenDate = strtotime($givenDate);
//Get just the day portion of the given time
$givenDay = strtotime('today', $givenDate);
//Calculate what the end of today's period is
$maxToday = strtotime("+$endtime minutes", $givenDay);
//Calculate the start of the next period
$nextPeriod = strtotime("tomorrow", $givenDay); //Set it to the next day
$nextPeriod = strtotime("+$starttime minutes", $nextPeriod); //And add the starting time
//If it's the weekend, bump it to Monday
if(date("D", $nextPeriod) == "Sat") {
$nextPeriod = strtotime("+2 days", $nextPeriod);
}
//Add the time period to the new day
$newDate = strtotime("+$addtime", $givenDate);
//print "$givenDate -> $newDate\n";
//print "$maxToday\n";
//Get the new hour as a decimal (adding minutes/60)
$hourfrac = date('H',$newDate) + date('i',$newDate)/60;
//print "$hourfrac\n";
//Check if we're outside the range needed
if($hourfrac < $starttime || $hourfrac > $endtime) {
//We're outside the range, find the remainder and add it on
$remainder = $newDate - $maxToday;
//print "$remainder\n";
$newDate = $nextPeriod + $remainder;
}
return $newDate;
}

I don't know if you still need this but here it is anyway. Requires PHP 5.3 or higher
<?php
function addRollover($givenDate, $addtime) {
$datetime = new DateTime($givenDate);
$datetime->modify($addtime);
if (in_array($datetime->format('l'), array('Sunday','Saturday')) ||
17 < $datetime->format('G') ||
(17 === $datetime->format('G') && 30 < $datetime->format('G'))
) {
$endofday = clone $datetime;
$endofday->setTime(17,30);
$interval = $datetime->diff($endofday);
$datetime->add(new DateInterval('P1D'));
if (in_array($datetime->format('l'), array('Saturday', 'Sunday'))) {
$datetime->modify('next Monday');
}
$datetime->setTime(8,30);
$datetime->add($interval);
}
return $datetime;
}
$future = addRollover('2014-01-03 15:15:00', '+4 hours');
echo $future->format('Y-m-d H:i:s');
See it in action
Here's an explanation of what's going on:
First we create a DateTime object representing our starting date/time
We then add the specified amount of time to it (see Supported Date and Time Formats)
We check to see if it is a weekend, after 6PM, or in the 5PM hour with more than 30 minutes passed (e.g. after 5:30PM)
If so we clone our datetime object and set it to 5:30PM
We then get the difference between the end time (5:30PM) and the modified time as a DateInterval object
We then progress to the next day
If the next day is a Saturday we progress to the next day
If the next day is a Sunday we progress to the next day
We then set our time to 8:30AM
We then add our difference between the end time (5:30PM) and the modified time to our datetime object
We return the object from the function
