(PHP 5 >= 5.3.0)
DatePeriod::__construct — Creates new DatePeriod object
Creates new DatePeriod object.
Start date.
Interval.
Number of recurrences.
End date.
String containing the ISO interval.
Can be set to DatePeriod::EXCLUDE_START_DATE.
I found two things useful to know that aren't covered here.
1. endDate is excluded:
<?php
$i = new DateInterval('P1D');
$d1 = new Datetime();
$d2 = clone $d1; $d2->add($i);
foreach(new DatePeriod($d1, $i, $d2) as $d) {
echo $d->format('Y-m-d H:i:s') . "\n";
}
?>
Will output:
2010-11-03 12:39:53
(Another one because I got it wrong at first)
2. For the first form, recurrences really means REcurrences, not occurences.
<?php
$i = new DateInterval('P1D');
$d = new Datetime();
foreach(new DatePeriod($d, $i, 1) as $d) {
echo $d->format('Y-m-d H:i:s') . "\n";
}
?>
Will output:
2010-11-03 12:41:05
2010-11-04 12:41:05
