This is short  sweet  and should work in PHP4    function getDatesFromRange  start   end        dates   array  start       while end  dates   lt   end            dates     date  Y-m-d   strtotime end  dates     1 day               return  dates

User · Answer

You must add  end- modify   1 day   to include last day of interval  for example the January will have a 31 days instead of 30 without using modify   method  This version of code will include the last day of the interval    begin   new DateTime   2018-08-01      end   new DateTime   2018-08-31      end    end- gt modify    1 day        interval   new DateInterval  P1D     daterange   new DatePeriod  begin   interval   end    foreach  daterange as  date       echo  date- gt format  Ymd       lt br gt        PHP doc link

Here s a way of doing this using Carbon https   github com briannesbitt Carbon   public function buildDateRangeArray  first   last        while   first  lt    last             dates      first- gt toDateString              first- gt addDay               return  dates      This  of course  can be tweaked to not use Carbon  The  first and  last parameters passed to the function are Carbon instances

To make Mostafa s answer complete  this is definietly the simplest and most efficient way to do it   function getDatesFromRange  start date   end date   date format    Y-m-d               dates array   array          for   x   strtotime  start date    x  lt   strtotime  end date    x    86400             array push  dates array  date  date format   x                   return  dates array              see the dates in the array    print r  getDatesFromRange  2017-02-09    2017-02-19        You can even change the default output date format if you add a third parameter when you call the function  otherwise it will use the default format that s been set as  Y-m-d    I hope it helps

You could also take a look at the DatePeriod class    period   new DatePeriod       new DateTime  2010-10-01         new DateInterval  P1D         new DateTime  2010-10-05        Which should get you an array with DateTime objects   To iterate  foreach   period as  key   gt   value           value- gt format  Y-m-d

I love a solid one-liner   My php discovery of the day was that array push   returns the new number of elements in the array   I managed to check for the end date match  increment  x  and push new elements all within the two-part condition statement of an empty while loop   function getDatesFromRange  a  b  x 0  dates          while end  dates    b  amp  amp   x array push  dates date  Y-m-d  strtotime   a   x day           return  dates    var export getDatesFromRange  2010-10-01   2010-10-05       The most similar function to mine on this page is drolex s  which I didn t actually find until after I wrote mine  if you believe me    I did some speed tests across large and small date ranges and they seem to beat each other just as often -- so I m calling them equal performers   Here are some other comparisons    We both use date    strtotime    and two array functions  Drolex uses just three variables  I use the same three plus  x  Because loading the start date into the  date array is not necessary for my function  I can declare it in the function parameters and spare the line  likewise with  x       Just a couple of important notes   1- Date strings MUST BE validated before being fed to the function   2- The above function can only handle forward moving date ranges  If you want backward moving date ranges  simply reverse the date order in the function call and add a minus after  x     Pretty slick  eh    function getDatesFromRange  a  b  x 0  dates          while end  dates    b  amp  amp   x -array push  dates date  Y-m-d  strtotime   a   x day           return  dates    var export getDatesFromRange  2010-10-05   2010-10-01         One more extension consideration     Imagine you have a multi-cultural  or sloppy  user base  and your function MUST be able to receive start and end dates in different valid formats AND you need to be able to output the array in any of the valid formats   By minor adjustment  I ve provided a solution for that   By  valid  I mean YYYY-MM-DD  MM DD YYY  and DD-MM-YYYY  these are massively popular standards world-wide  if another format is necessary then usability would come down to strtotime s comprehension of it   Here is the Demo   Code   function getDatesFromRange  a  b  format  Y-m-d   dates     x 0       while date  format strtotime end  dates     date  format strtotime  b    amp  amp   x array push  dates date  format strtotime   a   x day           return  dates      formats array  Computer   gt  Y-m-d   American   gt  m d Y   Non-American   gt  d-m-Y     start  15-02-2017         Non-American formatted start date  end  2017-02-27       Computer formatted start date foreach  formats as  label  gt  format       echo   lt br gt  label lt br gt        var export getDatesFromRange  start  end  format        echo   lt br gt        Output  Computer array   0   gt   2017-02-15   1   gt   2017-02-16   2   gt   2017-02-17   3   gt   2017-02-18           4   gt   2017-02-19   5   gt   2017-02-20   6   gt   2017-02-21   7   gt   2017-02-22           8   gt   2017-02-23   9   gt   2017-02-24   10   gt   2017-02-25   11   gt   2017-02-26           12   gt   2017-02-27      American array   0   gt   02 15 2017   1   gt   02 16 2017   2   gt   02 17 2017   3   gt   02 18 2017           4   gt   02 19 2017   5   gt   02 20 2017   6   gt   02 21 2017   7   gt   02 22 2017           8   gt   02 23 2017   9   gt   02 24 2017   10   gt   02 25 2017   11   gt   02 26 2017           12   gt   02 27 2017      Non-American array   0   gt   15-02-2017   1   gt   16-02-2017   2   gt   17-02-2017   3   gt   18-02-2017           4   gt   19-02-2017   5   gt   20-02-2017   6   gt   21-02-2017   7   gt   22-02-2017           8   gt   23-02-2017   9   gt   24-02-2017   10   gt   25-02-2017   11   gt   26-02-2017           12   gt   27-02-2017       Now some people don t 100  trust strtotime   because of some buggy behaviors   I think I ve read that it will foul up when trying to jump a month from a leap-day   However  unless someone can reproduce it to prove me wrong  strtotime   is never going to let you down when you are only incrementing by one day

Here is the another solution  Please check this    first    10 30 2017     starting date  last   10 11 2017       ending date  first time arr explode      first     last time arr explode      last     create timestamp of starting date  start timestamp mktime 0 0 0   first time arr 0    first time arr 1   first time arr 2      create timestamp of ending date  end timestamp mktime 0 0 0   last time arr 0    last time arr 1   last time arr 2     date arr array    for  i  start timestamp  i lt   end timestamp  i  i 86400        date arr   date  Y-m-d   i     this will save all dates in array

many ways of getting this done  but finally it all depends on PHP version you are using  Here is summary of all solutions   get PHP version   echo phpinfo      PHP 5 3    period   new DatePeriod       new DateTime  2010-10-01         new DateInterval  P1D         new DateTime  2010-10-05        PHP 4          creating between two date     param string since     param string until     param string step     param string date format     return array     author Ali OYGUR  lt alioygur gmail com gt      function dateRange  first   last   step     1 day    format    d m Y             dates   array         current   strtotime  first        last   strtotime  last        while   current  lt    last                dates     date  format   current            current   strtotime  step   current              return  dates      PHP  lt  4  you should upgrade

Note that the answer provided by ViNce does NOT include the end date for the period   If you are using PHP 5 3   your best bet is to use a function like this          Generate an array of string dates between 2 dates        param string  start Start date     param string  end End date     param string  format Output format  Default  Y-m-d         return array     function getDatesFromRange  start   end   format    Y-m-d          array   array         interval   new DateInterval  P1D          realEnd   new DateTime  end        realEnd- gt add  interval         period   new DatePeriod new DateTime  start    interval   realEnd        foreach  period as  date              array      date- gt format  format               return  array      Then  you would call the function as expected   getDatesFromRange  2010-10-01    2010-10-05      Run demo  Note about DatePeriod class  You can use the 4th parameter of DatePeriod to exclude the start date  DatePeriod  EXCLUDE START DATE  but you cannot  at this time  include the end date
