I want to get number of weekends and number of bussiness day by I know only $startDate and $endDate, Is have any PHP's function that can calculate automatic ?
This is my code :
$endDate = strtotime($endDate);
$startDate = strtotime($startDate);
echo $days = ($endDate - $startDate) / 86400 + 1;
My code will return how many day, and how I need more is what day ?
How I can get it?
Example:
startDate:`2014-11-17`
endDate:`2014-11-19`
I want this Output:
it's 3 day
2014-11-17 is Monday
2014-11-18 is Tueday
2014-11-19 is Wendnesday
How about...
for ($time = $startDate; $time <= $endDate; $time += 86400) {
echo date('Y-m-d \i\s l', $time) . '<br>';
}
This might help you, or at least may give you some clue
$endDate = strtotime($endDate);
$startDate = strtotime($startDate);
echo $days = ($endDate - $startDate) / 86400 + 1;
$time = $startDate;
while ($time <= $endDate) {
echo date('Y-m-d', $time) . ' is ' . date('l', $time);
$time += 86400;
}
if ($time != $endDate) {
echo date('Y-m-d', $time) . ' is ' . date('l', $time);
}
This should work for you:
<?php
$startDate = strtotime("2014-11-17");
$endDate = strtotime("2014-11-19");
echo "It's " . $days = ($endDate - $startDate) / 86400 + 1 . " days";
for($count = 0; $count < $days; $count++)
echo "<br />" . date('Y-m-d', strtotime('+' . $count . ' day', $startDate)) . ' is ' . date('l', strtotime('+' . $count . ' day', $startDate));
?>
Output:
It's 3 days
2014-11-17 is Monday
2014-11-18 is Tuesday
2014-11-19 is Wednesday
There's no built-in. Excel has NETWORKDAYS(), but in PHP you must roll your own.
There is a PHP solution at Day difference without weekends
Note its limitations in the comments there e.g. if a public holiday falls on a weekend day.
The following page describes an alternative implementation of NETWORKDAYS(): http://www.cpearson.com/excel/betternetworkdays.aspx
It's not PHP but it demonstrates the logic.
Unfortunately there is no shortcut other than looping through each day in the period and deciding whether or not to count it. You need to accept arguments for (or hard-code) the weekend days and the dates of any public holidays (if you are excluding public holidays).
If you are doing this frequently and for long periods, you might pre-compute and cache the number of business days for each calendar month and year; then, at run-time, you look up the number of days in each whole year within the period, then the remaining whole months, then do the ordinary loop for the remaining days at the start and end of the period.
EDIT: If you just want to exclude weekends (not public holidays), then you can calculate 5 days for each whole week in the period, and then calculate any remaining days: https://github.com/bgarlock/scripts/blob/master/PHP%20Equivalent%20of%20MS%20Excel%20NETWORKDAYS%20function.php
Please find below code I am sure it works for you
NOTE : Parameter passed P1D is denoting 1 Day difference same way you can pass P1M for 1 month P1W for 1 week and P1Y for 1 Year.
$date1 = '29/08/2013';
$date2 = '03/09/2013';
function returnDates($fromdate, $todate) {
$fromdate = \DateTime::createFromFormat('d/m/Y', $fromdate);
$todate = \DateTime::createFromFormat('d/m/Y', $todate);
return new \DatePeriod(
$fromdate,
new \DateInterval('P1D'),
$todate->modify('+1 day')
);
}
$datePeriod = returnDates($date1, $date2);
foreach($datePeriod as $date) {
echo $date->format('d/m/Y'), PHP_EOL; //you can set any date format here
}
I'm coding a script where I require to save the current date, and the date 1 month from that date. I am pretty sure that the time() variable works, but I am not sure how to +1 month onto that?
Any ideas, suggestions. Cheers!
Try this
$today = date("Y-m-d");
$date = date('Y-m-d', strtotime('+1 month', $today));
or use DateTime()
$dt1 = new DateTime();
$today = $dt1->format("Y-m-d");
$dt2 = new DateTime("+1 month");
$date = $dt2->format("Y-m-d");
$time = strtotime("2010-12-11");
$final = date("Y-m-d", strtotime("+1 month", $time));
(OR)
strtotime( "+1 month", strtotime( $time ) );
this returns a timestamp that can be used with the date function
Use this:
Current Date:
echo "Today is " . date("Y/m/d");
1 Month to the Current Date:
$time = strtotime(date("Y/m/d"));
$final = date("Y-m-d", strtotime("+1 month", $time));
<?php
$current_time = date("Y-M-d h:i:s",time()); // Getting Current Date & Time
print $current_time; // Current Date & Time Printing for display purpose
$future_timestamp = strtotime("+1 month"); // Getting timestamp of 1 month from now
$final_future = date("Y-M-d h:i:s",+$future_timestamp); // Getting Future Date & Time of 1 month from now
print $final_future; // Printing Future time for display purpose
?>
shorter : $today=date("Y-m-d"); $date=
This one liner worked for me:
$monthFromToday = date("Y-m-d", strtotime("+1 month", strtotime(date("Y/m/d"))));
The given answers may not give you the results you might expect or desire.
Consider:
$today = "29Jan2018";
$nextMonth = date('dMY', strtotime('+1 month', (strtotime($today))));
echo $today // yields 29Jan2018
echo $nextMonth // yields 01Mar2018
$today = date("Y-m-d");
$enddate = date('Y-m-01',strtotime($today. ' + 1 months'));
You could also consider using the Carbon package.
The solution would look like this:
use Carbon\Carbon
$now = Carbon::now;
$now->addMonth();

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";

Relative descriptions like this week have their own context. The following shows the output for this week monday and sunday when it's a monday or a sunday:
$date = '2015-03-16'; // monday
echo date("Y-m-d", strtotime('monday this week', strtotime($date))), "\n";
echo date("Y-m-d", strtotime('sunday this week', strtotime($date))), "\n";
$date = '2015-03-22'; // sunday
echo date("Y-m-d", strtotime('monday this week', strtotime($date))), "\n";
echo date("Y-m-d", strtotime('sunday this week', strtotime($date))), "\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);
I am confused while using php to handle date/time.
What I am trying to do is this: When a user visits my page I am asking his timezone and then displaying the 'day of week' in his timezone.
I don't want to use the browser's day.
I want to do this calculation in php.
This is how I am trying to achieve it:
The timezone entered by user
Unix time stamp calculated by php time() function.
But I dont know how to proceed...
How would i get the 'day of week' in this timezone.
$dw = date( "w", $timestamp);
Where $dw will be 0 (for Sunday) through 6 (for Saturday) as you can see here:
http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.date.php
My solution is this:
$tempDate = '2012-07-10';
echo date('l', strtotime( $tempDate));
Output is: Tuesday
$tempDate = '2012-07-10';
echo date('D', strtotime( $tempDate));
Output is: Tue
I think this is the correct answer, just change Europe/Stockholm to the users time-zone.
$dateTime = new \DateTime(
'now',
new \DateTimeZone('Europe/Stockholm')
);
$day = $dateTime->format('N');
ISO-8601 numeric representation of the day of the week (added in PHP 5.1.0)
1 (for Monday) through 7 (for Sunday)
http://php.net/manual/en/function.date.php
For a list of supported time-zones, see
http://php.net/manual/en/timezones.php
Thanks a lot guys for your quick comments.
This is what i will be using now.
Posting the function here so that somebody may use it.
public function getDayOfWeek($pTimezone)
{
$userDateTimeZone = new DateTimeZone($pTimezone);
$UserDateTime = new DateTime("now", $userDateTimeZone);
$offsetSeconds = $UserDateTime->getOffset();
//echo $offsetSeconds;
return gmdate("l", time() + $offsetSeconds);
}
Report if you find any corrections.
Another quick way:
date_default_timezone_set($userTimezone);
echo date("l");
If you can get their timezone offset, you can just add it to the current timestamp and then use the gmdate function to get their local time.
// let's say they're in the timezone GMT+10
$theirOffset = 10; // $_GET['offset'] perhaps?
$offsetSeconds = $theirOffset * 3600;
echo gmdate("l", time() + $offsetSeconds);
$myTimezone = date_default_timezone_get();
date_default_timezone_set($userTimezone);
$userDay = date('l', $userTimestamp);
date_default_timezone_set($myTimezone);
This should work (didn't test it, so YMMV). It works by storing the script's current timezone, changing it to the one specified by the user, getting the day of the week from the date() function at the specified timestamp, and then setting the script's timezone back to what it was to begin with.
You might have some adventures with timezone identifiers, though.
"Day of Week" is actually something you can get directly from the php date() function with the format "l" or "N" respectively. Have a look at
the manual
edit: Sorry I didn't read the posts of Kalium properly, he already explained that. My bad.
Check date is monday or sunday before get last monday or last sunday
public function getWeek($date){
$date_stamp = strtotime(date('Y-m-d', strtotime($date)));
//check date is sunday or monday
$stamp = date('l', $date_stamp);
$timestamp = strtotime($date);
//start week
if(date('D', $timestamp) == 'Mon'){
$week_start = $date;
}else{
$week_start = date('Y-m-d', strtotime('Last Monday', $date_stamp));
}
//end week
if($stamp == 'Sunday'){
$week_end = $date;
}else{
$week_end = date('Y-m-d', strtotime('Next Sunday', $date_stamp));
}
return array($week_start, $week_end);
}
Based on one of the other solutions with a flag to switch between weeks starting on Sunday or Monday
function getWeekForDate($date, $weekStartSunday = false){
$timestamp = strtotime($date);
// Week starts on Sunday
if($weekStartSunday){
$start = (date("D", $timestamp) == 'Sun') ? date('Y-m-d', $timestamp) : date('Y-m-d', strtotime('Last Sunday', $timestamp));
$end = (date("D", $timestamp) == 'Sat') ? date('Y-m-d', $timestamp) : date('Y-m-d', strtotime('Next Saturday', $timestamp));
} else { // Week starts on Monday
$start = (date("D", $timestamp) == 'Mon') ? date('Y-m-d', $timestamp) : date('Y-m-d', strtotime('Last Monday', $timestamp));
$end = (date("D", $timestamp) == 'Sun') ? date('Y-m-d', $timestamp) : date('Y-m-d', strtotime('Next Sunday', $timestamp));
}
return array('start' => $start, 'end' => $end);
}
echo date('l', strtotime('today'));
